Ingredients Explained

These ingredients are found in both products.

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

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.

Antioxidant, Masking, Skin Conditioning

Tocopherol (also known as Vitamin E) is a common antioxidant used to help protect the skin from free-radicals and strengthen the skin barrier. It's also fat soluble - this means our skin is great at absorbing it.

Vitamin E also helps keep your natural skin lipids healthy. Your lipid skin barrier naturally consists of lipids, ceramides, and fatty acids. Vitamin E offers extra protection for your skin’s lipid barrier, keeping your skin healthy and nourished.

Another benefit is a bit of UV protection. Vitamin E helps reduce the damage caused by UVB rays. (It should not replace your sunscreen). Combining it with Vitamin C can decrease sunburned cells and hyperpigmentation after UV exposure.

You might have noticed Vitamin E + C often paired together. This is because it is great at stabilizing Vitamin C. Using the two together helps increase the effectiveness of both ingredients.

There are often claims that Vitamin E can reduce/prevent scarring, but these claims haven't been confirmed by scientific research.

Most effective way to remove mascara!
I have blonde eyelashes, so if there is even a speck of mascara left over I’m going see it. In the past I’ve had to rub and rub at my eye makeup to get it off completely, and that can be irritating to the skin around the eyes. This product has made my makeup removing step so much easier! I just apply the product to my lashes, wipe off the applicator with a Show more

I have yet to try other mascara removers for comparison but this is really really good at removing stubborn mascaras. It doesn't irritate my eyes either and I don't have any allergic reaction to it

cleanses waterproof makeup very well, much better than other cleansing oils i have tried (anua, skin1004, kose softymo, hada labo). emulsifies well and rinses off without residue. only downside is that it can be a little drying if rubbed in for too long (~10min) and stings the eyes.
