Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
This ingredient is an emollient, solvent, and texture enhancer. It is considered a skin-softener by helping the skin prevent moisture loss.
It helps thicken a product's formula and makes it easier to spread by dissolving clumping compounds.
Caprylic Triglyceride is made by combining glycerin with coconut oil, forming a clear liquid.
While there is an assumption Caprylic Triglyceride can clog pores due to it being derived from coconut oil, there is no research supporting this.

This ingredient is a tetraester from oleic acid and polyethylene glycol ether of sorbitol.
As an emulsifier, it helps ingredients such as oil and water mix together. This allows the dirt and oils in your skin to be washed away.
One study found pumpkin oil containing Sorbeth-30 Tetraoleate helped hydrate the skin and did not cause any irritation.

Numbuzin No.3 Pore & Makeup Cleansing Balm with Green Tea and Charcoal 19 ingredients
This is really good for exfoliation, but I really wouldn't recommend this for sensitive skin or makeup cleaner as it made my skin tingle so I definitely wouldn't put this near my eyes
this cleansing balm is my holy grail!! I love it for daily double cleansing. I'm on my 4th tub and it gets rid of all my waterproof makeup. it also helps clear out my pores at the end of the day and soften my sebum.

Gave me a lot of CCs where I never had acne before. Worst product I’ve ever tried.
Broke me out. The first ingredient has a pore clogging rate of 3 out of 5, known as isopropyl myristate. So buyer beware!
