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!

What it does:
Dimethicone comes in different viscosities:
Depending on the viscosity, dimethicone has different properties.
Ingredients lists don't always show which type is used, so we recommend reaching out to the brand if you have questions about the viscosity.
This ingredient is unlikely to cause irritation because it does not get absorbed into skin. However, people with silicone allergies should be careful about using this ingredient.

Been testing this for a couple months now and it's become my favorite FA-safe skin tint. It's similar to the Fenty Eaze Drops, but has a thinner consistency that I like. Lasts all day without drying out your skin. Plays well with other products. Love it.
Fungal acne safe! Girls I’m not joking when I say this but this is probably the best skin tint on the market!
