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!

An absolute must-have for easily irritated dry winter skin! Helped me with irritation and tightness from wind burn and cold without clogging my pores. This product single-handedly turned my skin for the better. Newly found HG.

Amazing
I love this product, specially on winter. This baume has 3 types of ingredients that every skin needs to be glowy and healthy: occlusives, emollients and humectants.
This cream will help you repair your damaged skin barrier in few days.
I think one of the best things is that you can apply it to your face even if you have acne because is not comedogenic and has no fragrance in it or other bad ingredients.
I use this cream everyday on my sensitive, acne prone skin and it has given me the best results.

This has probably been the product that has made the most difference in my skin. It's clearing up breakouts and acne that I've had for the longest time. My skin looks and feels so much better and I've only been using it for about 2-3 months now.

Works! Doesn’t irritate my skin when used on a dry surface. I hate how my skin looks when it sends all the clogged sebum to the surface of my skin, but it clears over time and leaves the skin incredibly firm and smooth. It’s the only not cruelty-free product I use just because it’s benefitted me so greatly and, in my opinion, is indisputably the best prescription-grade retinoid especially for sensitive skin.
