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!

I really like the consistency of this product. I give it 3 stars because I felt like it didn't do much for my skin. I find snail mucin can be hit or miss for my skin and this was a miss. I think it's a good product and if snail mucin works well for your skin then this might be worth giving a try.
