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!
Learn more about WaterParfum is a catch-all term for an ingredient or more that is used to give a scent to products.
Also called "fragrance", this ingredient can be a blend of hundreds of chemicals or plant oils. This means every product with "fragrance" or "parfum" in the ingredients list is a different mixture.
For instance, Habanolide is a proprietary trade name for a specific aroma chemical. When used as a fragrance ingredient in cosmetics, most aroma chemicals fall under the broad labeling category of “FRAGRANCE” or “PARFUM” according to EU and US regulations.
The term 'parfum' or 'fragrance' is not regulated in many countries. In many cases, it is up to the brand to define this term.
For instance, many brands choose to label themselves as "fragrance-free" because they are not using synthetic fragrances. However, their products may still contain ingredients such as essential oils that are considered a fragrance by INCI standards.
One example is Calendula flower extract. Calendula is an essential oil that still imparts a scent or 'fragrance'.
Depending on the blend, the ingredients in the mixture can cause allergies and sensitivities on the skin. Some ingredients that are known EU allergens include linalool and citronellol.
Parfum can also be used to mask or cover an unpleasant scent.
The bottom line is: not all fragrances/parfum/ingredients are created equally. If you are worried about fragrances, we recommend taking a closer look at an ingredient. And of course, we always recommend speaking with a professional.

Erborian Skin Therapy Multi-Perfecting Bi-Phase Night Oil-Serum 48 ingredients
The only product at this price point that I bought again before finishing the first bottle! A few drops (I only use 2 per night) goes a long way and personally, I noticed progress from the morning after. My skin feels nourished, bouncy and glowy, and not as red anymore. As it’s oil added on (very) oily skin, I do have to wash my face with lukewarm water in the morning before toning, though!
Too expensive and I didn't really notice any advantage from a cheaper squalene or jojoba oil.

This toner is consistent
This was THE BEST toner I’ve ever used in my entire life hands down. It brightens the skin, smoothes and gives a youthful look, exfoliates and completely gets rid of dark spots and you notice a difference after not too long. By month 2 my skin was completely perfect like I’d never had dark spots or got acne or had dull uneven skin. Where I’m located I can’t consistently purchase it even trying to Show more
