Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Tocopherol (also known as Vitamin E) is a common antioxidant used to help protect the skin from free-radicals and strengthen the skin barrier. It's also fat soluble - this means our skin is great at absorbing it.
Vitamin E also helps keep your natural skin lipids healthy. Your lipid skin barrier naturally consists of lipids, ceramides, and fatty acids. Vitamin E offers extra protection for your skin’s lipid barrier, keeping your skin healthy and nourished.
Another benefit is a bit of UV protection. Vitamin E helps reduce the damage caused by UVB rays. (It should not replace your sunscreen). Combining it with Vitamin C can decrease sunburned cells and hyperpigmentation after UV exposure.
You might have noticed Vitamin E + C often paired together. This is because it is great at stabilizing Vitamin C. Using the two together helps increase the effectiveness of both ingredients.
There are often claims that Vitamin E can reduce/prevent scarring, but these claims haven't been confirmed by scientific research.

First Aid Beauty Pure Skin Face Cleanser 27 ingredients
my favourite cleanser, so underrated! i got this for the first time in 2020 after loving the first aid beauty moisturisers, and have went back to it ever since
if i found out about it now i probably wouldn’t buy it due to the ingredients, it has a high amount of stearic acid and stearyl alcohol- i have very intolerant skin and am wary of certain ingredients even in cleansers but this is Show more
Even after trying multiple cleansers, I always come back to this one. I will admit in the winter sometimes I feel a little dry but otherwise this has never irritated my skin or broke me out. It would help clear up breakouts after other cleansers have destroyed my skin. I will be SO UPSET if FAB ever discontinues this!

As someone who is currently using Tretinoin daily, this doesn’t irritate or dry out my skin at all. It gently melts Makeup and sunscreen off of my skin with very little rubbing and pulling on my skin. It does have a fragrance but I have not found it to be overwhelming or to cause any irritation to my skin.
The best oil cleanser!!! Obsessed. Cleared my pores and smells so amazing.
