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!

Humectant, Masking, Skin Conditioning

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.
  • It has mild preservative properties.

Overall, Butylene Glycol is a safe and well-rounded ingredient that works well with other ingredients.

Humectant, Skin Conditioning

Sodium Hyaluronate is hyaluronic acid's salt form. It is commonly derived from the sodium salt of hyaluronic acid.

Like hyaluronic acid, it is great at holding water and acts as a humectant. This makes it a great skin hydrating ingredient.

Sodium Hyaluronate is naturally occurring in our bodies and is mostly found in eye fluid and joints.

These are some other common types of Hyaluronic Acid:

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.

really wanted to like this product as it gave my skin a plumping effect after application, but this unfortunately broke me out in tiny whiteheads. feels a little tacky if layered on more than once, and can feel drying if not applied to very damp skin. stopped using after 2 weeks and my whiteheads cleared up.

It feels and looks luxurious but not great for sensitive skin. If you have very dry and/or sensitive skin it burns. Also very expensive for what it is. There are much better moisturizers out there for much less money.

Used on Back of Hands
Can't use on my face. Oily skin. If I use thick moisturizers on my face, my pores get congested. And I know it's oil-free but it's a liittttle too thick for me personally (might be perfect for someone else's face, especially if they have dry skin). I got the mini-size of this in a gift set (Mini Tatcha Treasures set). Don't want to waste it so I'll use it on the back of Show more
