Ingredients Explained

These ingredients are found in both products.

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

Sodium Lauroyl Glutamate is the sodium salt from the lauric acid of glutamic acid.

It is a surfactant and helps cleanse the skin. Surfactants gather oil, dirt, and other pollutants from your skin so they may be washed away easily.

Good Molecules Pineapple Exfoliating Powder contains this as ingredient number 3.

Indeed Labs Exfoliator II contains this as ingredient number 7.

What it does: Skin Conditioning, Solvent
Community Rating: Loved

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. Talk about multi-purpose! If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!

Good Molecules Pineapple Exfoliating Powder contains this as ingredient number 15.

Indeed Labs Exfoliator II contains this as ingredient number 16.

3
What it does: Humectant, Masking, Skin Conditioning, Solvent
Community Rating: Mixed

Butylene Glycol (or BG) is used within cosmetic products for a few different reasons:

  • It is a solvent, meaning that it helps to dissolve other ingredients. This also enhances the absorption of the product into one's skin.
  • It is a humectant, which means that it helps attract moisture into the skin.
  • It helps improve product application.

Overall, Butylene Glycol is a safe and well-rounded ingredient. It is unlikely to irritate skin, and works well with pretty much all other ingredients.

Good Molecules Pineapple Exfoliating Powder contains this as ingredient number 16.

Indeed Labs Exfoliator II contains this as ingredient number 17.

Love this powder exfoliant
There is something so satisfying about using a finely milled powder cleanser that include enzymes and other gentle but effective ingredients like rice bran, flax and celery seed extracts. A tiny bit of powder mixed with a small amount of water magically transforms into a rich creamy lather that cleans and exfoliates skin leaving it looking radiant. I use this just once per week and this is enough to keep my sensitive skin feeling soft and fresh. In fact, this is the only type of exfoliant I can use on my face that doesn’t irritate it. It's very similar to Tatcha's Rice Powder only at a fraction of the cost.
