Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
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!
Learn more about WaterDipropylene Glycol is a synthetically created stabilizer and solvent. It is a part of the glycol class in the alcohol family.

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.
Overall, Butylene Glycol is a safe and well-rounded ingredient. It is unlikely to irritate skin, and works well with pretty much all other ingredients.
Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride is an emollient, solvent, and texture enhancer. It is considered a skin-softener by helping the skin prevent moisture loss.
Within a product, Caprylic Triglyceride can thicken the product and make spreadability easier by dissolving clumping compounds. An added benefit of Caprylic Triglyceride is its antioxidant properties.
Caprylic Triglyceride is made by combining glycerin with coconut oil, forming a clear liquid. Caprylic Triglyceride has not been found to be toxic for human use in concentrations under 50%.
While there is an assumption Caprylic Triglyceride can clog pores due to it being derived from coconut oil, there is no research supporting this.

THE BEST THING I EVER BOUGHT
I have dry, sensitive skin. I hardly ever get acne, but everything I put on my face burns & I do have redness per my sensitivity. When I moved from CA to CO, my skin started peeling off layers and was so dry it hurt. This is the first product I bought during the beginning of the pandemic per tik tok & youtube videos of skin influencers. I was skeptical but I had nothing to lose. I went from using this once a week to almost every day. It's the only product I will forever repurchase. It is like a sigh of relief to my skin. It is so moisturizing, definitely heals my barrier and acne when I have a flare up from a product that did not work & is becoming something I use every morning because I love how it makes my skin look/feel. Other reviews say it has a bad smell, I love the smell. It gives hints of almond and natural vibes. I love it so much and want everyone to have this in their routine if they struggle with dry/sensitive skin. It even has ceramides for anti-aging! 1000% recommend.
