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!

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.

Used it and woke up the next morning with a pimple, thought nothing of it and used it again and my face was red the next day with so many break outs! Didn’t know what exactly caused it but I only used it twice and never again. I have sensitive combination skin.

I struggled with acne for years until I started using tretinoin. I have used it since I was 15 and since then my skin hasn’t broken out in the typical cystic acne patterns since. It reduces irritation and helps with my skin texture and look. It is obviously a medical product so it is drying and irritating–as tretinoin is–but it is exactly that, a medical ingredient to be used as your skin can Show more

Purging occurs but slowly introduce it into your routine. Will cause a slew of pimples.
