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.

Learn more about Glyceryl StearateGlucose is a simple sugar and is the most important source of energy in all organisms.
In skincare, glucose is used to hydrate the skin. It also acts as a prebiotic for our natural biome.
Glucose is hydrating due to its humectant property. As a humectant, glucose draws moisture from the air and from deeper levels in the skin.
Our skin contains many sugars that act as prebiotics and help strengthen our natural microbiome. Having a healthy microbiome helps protect our skin from harmful bacteria and other contaminants.
Studies show glucose may help with fading discoloration and pigmentation. This is because our skin metabolizes glucose into lactic acid. Lactic acid is an AHA that helps exfoliate the top layer of skin.

This moisturiser has a gel like texture and it is quite hydrating even though I have dry skin but this sits well on my face. I like how it isn’t too moisturising which is perfect for me as I prefer using a lighter cream before applying sunscreen for my AM routine so it doesn’t feel too heavy on my skin. However, it is not hydrating enough for those with super dry skin. I have used this moisturiser Show more
It didn't do too much. My skin needs a thicker consistency and this one didn't make it for me.
