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!

This has been one of the best things I found for my skin. Helps so much with my irritated skin from retinol! So much improvement in skin texture and pores looks smooth.

Love the natural mugwort smell, very herbal. (Double fermented)
Texture is very light and watery, absorbs easily into the skin.

Will be in rotation with Missha 5x essence.

Texture is very watery, absorbs easily into the skin and during the summer I don't even need a moisturizer (I live in a tropical country and my skin is normal). I really liked it!

The scent is good. My sister used it when her cheeks were really pink due to rosacea and it visibly helped (did not solve the problem, it's just an essence..)

Best centella asiatica product you'll ever try, if you're like me and the skin1004 centella ampoule did nothing for you this is going to be your holy grail because God this is just so much better. My redness has never beenn calmed and soothed like that before whatttt. Mixsoon uses a slower and more expensive way to extract from the plant so that's really why this product is just so serendipity, Show more

So your probably here to compare this with the skin1004 centella ampoule and I will just say that for me both worked and I loved them both 🤷‍♀️😅. However some differences first off viscosity of the product this one is a lot more thicker (though it’s still water like!), this one also has a slight scent it’s earthy but very very light and can only smell it if your sniffing the bottle 🤣, this has the Show more
