Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.

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.

Makes my barrier stronger than cement and my skin softer than a marshmallow.
I love this, everytime I used this my dry skin soaked it up like a sponge and it made my skin feel more hydrated and plump. Definitely a good basic toner to safely put other products on top.
