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!

Buffering, Masking

Citric Acid is an AHA derived from citrus fruits (think oranges, lemons, and limes!).

As an AHA, Citric Acid removes the top layer of skin cells from the newer layer of skin underneath. This helps skin to remove dark spots and even out skin tone.

If you spot Citric Acid near the end of an ingredient list, it's likely there as a pH adjuster rather than an active ingredient.

I love this cleanser so much! I have oily, acne-prone skin and this helps clean any oil and dirt on my face without breaking me out. My skin always feels nice and clean. I've tried many other cleansers and nothing has worked as great as this does. I have been using this for years and this will always be my go-to. If you have dry skin, do not use this as it may be too drying/stripping.

I have acne-prone combination-oily sensitive skin. All the other cleansers that I used are either moisture stripping or not cleansing enough. This is the right cleanser for me. It didn't strip away the moisture from my skin.
