Ingredients Explained

These ingredients are found in both products.

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

1
What it does: Skin Conditioning, Solvent
Community Rating: Loved

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!

Krave Beauty Oat So Simple Water Cream contains this as ingredient number 1.

Aveeno Calm + Restore Oat Gel Moisturizer For Sensitive Skin contains this as ingredient number 1.

2
What it does: Humectant, Masking, Skin Conditioning, Solvent
Community Rating: Mixed

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.

Krave Beauty Oat So Simple Water Cream contains this as ingredient number 2.

Aveeno Calm + Restore Oat Gel Moisturizer For Sensitive Skin contains this as ingredient number 11.

Not as hydrating as I expected.
Don’t get me wrong it is a very light weight non irritating moisturizer, I just didn’t feel that the hydration was lacking for what I may have expected it to perform as.

it is really simple
the cream is thick, there is no dominant fragrance, once you apply it to your face the cream melts, really smooth and easy to apply. It's a bit sticky at first but after a few minutes after it sinks in and dries, it gives healthy glow to my face. I'm really happy to find this cream because it's really hard for me to find a suitable moisturizer. plus, this cream is fungal acne safe and the ingredients are very minimal, so it's safe for those with allergic or sensitive skin.

I loved this cream so much. The title is very fitting it is really simple. I have the most sensitive skin ever and I had no problem with this at all- that is very rare! My only problem with this is that it's not the most hydrating for a 'cream'. I do have to reapply if I use this because I do feel like it soaks in quickly with no extra moisture. If you have more oily skin this could be a great option.

Gave me congested skin & was too greasy.
I really wanted this product to work but it really congested my skin. It also was greasy I was expecting it to really hydrate my skin but it didn't. it caused me more fungal acne as well.

It plays well on my dry and acne prone skin in my PM and AM routines, I feel it helps keep my skin calm and hydrated alongside adapalene and the other actives in my routine.
