Ingredients Explained

These ingredients are found in both products.

Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.

Humectant, Masking, Skin Conditioning

Butylene Glycol (or BG) is used within cosmetic products for a few different reasons:

  • It is a solvent, meaning that it helps to dissolve other ingredients. This also enhances the absorption of the product into one's skin.
  • It is a humectant, which means that it helps attract moisture into the skin.
  • It helps improve product application.
  • It has mild preservative properties.

Overall, Butylene Glycol is a safe and well-rounded ingredient that works well with other ingredients.

You might know this plant as Job's Tears or Chinese pearl barley. It is a grain native to Southeast Asia.

This ingredient has skin conditioning properties. Emerging studies show the grain to exhibit antioxidant and anti-inflammation properties as well. (With one study finding this ingredient to be effective at blocking melanin when skin is exposed to UV).

Job's tears is rich in nutrients, such as thiamine, riboflavin, niacin and ascorbic acid.

You can also find great antioxidants such as ferulic acid, caffeic acid.

To top if off, ceramides are also present in this grain.

Cons: Worst part of using this is having to transfer it to a smaller bottle. Half a liter isn’t hard to pour from, but not convenient.

Pros: Works amazingly. My skin is so dry I’d scratch myself by accident and my arms would be covered with white scratch marks. Currently using a mist spray and even that’s effective. 500mL would last weeks, I’m sure. An absolute fave! So much that I keep a handy Show more

5/5 great toner overall
I get it when they say this is the most viral hatomugi/milk toner in Japan. (Context: "hatomugi" refers to Job's Tears in Japanese, and basically every Japanese milk toner includes hatomugi extract.)
This is actually an excellent Japanese skincare product to begin with, given that the majority of J-Beauty products contain ethanol, common allergens, and Show more
