Water. It's the most common cosmetic ingredient of all. You'll usually see it at the top of ingredient lists, meaning that it makes up the largest part of the product.

So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.

You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!

Butylene Glycol (or BG) is used within cosmetic products for a few different reasons:

  • It helps improve product application.

Overall, Butylene Glycol is a safe and well-rounded ingredient. It is unlikely to irritate skin, and works well with pretty much all other ingredients.

i bought this for the first time back in 2020 as a recommendation from hyram on youtube, and haven’t used any other moisturiser in the day since. i have very oily + blemished skin but also dehydrated and sensitive and this is perfect for me. it never makes me more oily and helps with oil production through the day, but also doesn’t dry me out at all. so many moisturisers break me out sadly but this is one that never has. i’d describe it as being a sort of mix between a gel and cream texture and it goes on my skin super easily and it always feels hydrating :) id recommend for any oily skin types, but would suggest using something thicker/heavier at night!

Pretty solid lightweight moisturizer for those with oily and acne prone skin. This broke me out, but not nearly as badly as other products. It might've been because my skin doesn't take to most things during the day or the tocopherol, I'm not sure. I don't dislike it though, my skin is just really picky. My mom has sensitive skin too and she loves this, so YMMV
