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!

This cleanser smells nice and does its job. The only downside is the price tag.

Pricey, but great for oily skin, and I don't think it's stripping at all (although, dry skin people may disagree). It provides a very deep cleansing, but your face won't feel super dry right after as it happens with other cleansers for oily skin that contain harsh ingredients like mint. Plus, it smells very refreshing, like freshly cut grass. It shocks me that despite the brand's philosophy, they don't offer any option for refilling the bottle, which is made of glass, and really makes you think of it as a refillable product. But sadly it's not and if you want to repurchase, you really need to go buy another really heavy glass bottle and throw away the old one. I don't know if it's some sort of greenwashing but it's definetly not practical.
