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!

Humectant, Skin Conditioning, Skin Protecting

Glycerin is already naturally found in your skin. It helps moisturize and protect your skin.

A study from 2016 found glycerin to be more effective as a humectant than AHAs and hyaluronic acid.

As a humectant, it helps the skin stay hydrated by pulling moisture to your skin. The low molecular weight of glycerin allows it to pull moisture into the deeper layers of your skin.

Hydrated skin improves your skin barrier; Your skin barrier helps protect against irritants and bacteria.

Glycerin has also been found to have antimicrobial and antiviral properties. Due to these properties, glycerin is often used in wound and burn treatments.

In cosmetics, glycerin is usually derived from plants such as soybean or palm. However, it can also be sourced from animals, such as tallow or animal fat.

This ingredient is organic, colorless, odorless, and non-toxic.

Glycerin is the name for this ingredient in American English. British English uses Glycerol/Glycerine.

This ingredient has many purposes in skincare: thickener, emulsifier, and exfoliator.

You'll most likely find this ingredient in cleansers where it is used to create a gel-like texture. As an emulsifier, it also prevents ingredients from separating.

The concensus about this ingredient causing acne seems to be divided. Research is needed to understand if this ingredient does cause acne.

This product made me break out BAD. At first I was in denial since it really had the kind of coverage that I like (light to medium coverage), but the more I used it, the more closed comedones started to form all over my face. I even had to visit a dermatologist to fix my skin. NEVER GONNA USE THIS AGAIN😭

As for pros, it has a nice texture/consistency, blends out nicely, and is not streaky. It also helped bring a stubborn pimple I've had to a head because of the clay and BHA in it lol (unexpected pro). However my GOD this was so unbelievably oily. This is the oiliest product I've used in YEARS. My forehead was practically leaking oil by hour 2, and was unbearably shiny and greasy by hour 8. With Show more
