Ingredients Explained

These ingredients are found in both products.

Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.

Skin Conditioning, Solvent

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!

Preservative

Phenoxyethanol is a preservative that has germicide, antimicrobial, and aromatic properties. Studies show that phenoxyethanol can prevent microbial growth. By itself, it has a scent that is similar to that of a rose.

It's often used in formulations along with Caprylyl Glycol to preserve the shelf life of products.

I was so excited to try this because it looked like a really moisturizing FA safe moisturizer which is so hard to find. Unfortunately, this broke me out with little closed comedones and tiny pimples after just a week of use.

Nice but gonna try other moisturisers instead
First FA safe moisturiser I’ve used. Had high hopes and expected this to become my holy grail but I find it pretty average. Always like a gel texture but sometimes when I use this on my face I find it looks like my face is still wet or it hasn’t absorbed fully so I end up going over to rub it in cuz it’s feels a tad sticky. Which i do find a bit Show more

This’s the worst thing I’ve ever put on my skin, my doctor told me to put it because it’s a thick moisturizer after a cold peel, but I accidentally put it after my skin peeled and i now have the worst fungal allergy in my life, it’s not even acne it’s just that my face is swollen and there is red dry scratchy spots that feel like my skin is burning .
