Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Panthenol is a common ingredient that helps hydrate and soothe the skin. It is found naturally in our skin and hair.
There are two forms of panthenol: D and L.
D-panthenol is also known as dexpanthenol. Most cosmetics use dexpanthenol or a mixture of D and L-panthenol.
Panthenol is famous due to its ability to go deeper into the skin's layers. Using this ingredient has numerous pros (and no cons):
Like hyaluronic acid, panthenol is a humectant. Humectants are able to bind and hold large amounts of water to keep skin hydrated.
This ingredient works well for wound healing. It works by increasing tissue in the wound and helps close open wounds.
Once oxidized, panthenol converts to pantothenic acid. Panthothenic acid is found in all living cells.
This ingredient is also referred to as pro-vitamin B5.
Learn more about PanthenolAllantoin plays a role in soothing and moisturizing the skin. Because of this, it is often added to products with strong active ingredients.
Some studies have shown this ingredient can promote wound healing with higher concentrations.
Allantoin is derived from the comfrey plant but produced synthetically for cosmetic products to ensure purity.

Good cleansers that don’t strip the skin or cause more problems are so hard to find for my sensitive skin, so I waited a couple of weeks to really see how my skin reacted after twice-daily use before reviewing.
I highly recommend this cleanser for everyone. It’s so hydrating, has nothing in it that has caused my skin to dry out or react badly, is non-comedogenic, vegan and cruelty-free. It’s Show more
Perfect for what it’s meant for. Completely simple and FA safe product with no actives so there is no way this has ever irritated my skin after months. Don’t expect drastic clearing of your skin/acne as this has no actives or anything of that sort. But it shines in what it’s meant to do. Very hydrating, love the lather and texture, doesn’t dry out, very gentle and overall just great. My friend Show more
