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!

Update: I've put this back into my routine now that I'm back in my normal environment and now giving this five stars. It works WAY better (humid summers/dry winters), doesn't pill under my moisturizers, plays well with my makeup, and doesn't break me out while giving me hydration.
TL;DR: Doesn't sting. FA safe. Feels gritty after a couple hours and doesn't keep my skin moisturized.

Cannot praise this enough! I was a bit skeptical as it doesn’t say anything about being for your face but wow does this hydrate my skin so well without making me feel greasy. Doesn’t sting your eyes either. I almost feel excited to put it on in the morning whereas I would be worried about breakouts with other SPFs.
