Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
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!

It's often used in formulations along with Caprylyl Glycol to preserve the shelf life of products.
Sodium Hyaluronate is hyaluronic acid's salt form. It is commonly derived from the sodium salt of hyaluronic acid.
Like hyaluronic acid, it is great at holding water and acts as a humectant. This makes it a great skin hydrating ingredient.

Makes my skin feel so luxurious and hydrated without being oily
SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic® With 15% L-Ascorbic Acid 12 ingredients
the most cruel thing that anyone has done to me was give me a free sample of this product while its retail price is half of the cost of my weekly mortgage repayment 🫥
I really wanted to dislike this product but I cannot lie. I got as a free sample and it’s absolutely the best thing I’ve ever applied on my face. I noticed a difference after just one just. My skin was smoother, reduced my white comodones, and made my skin brighter. It’s amazing. But the price hurts :(
