Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Dimethicone is a type of synthetic silicone created from natural materials such as quartz.
What it does:
Dimethicone comes in different viscosities:
Depending on the viscosity, dimethicone has different properties.
Ingredients lists don't always show which type is used, so we recommend reaching out to the brand if you have questions about the viscosity.
This ingredient is unlikely to cause irritation because it does not get absorbed into skin. However, people with silicone allergies should be careful about using this ingredient.
Note: Dimethicone may contribute to pilling. This is because it is not oil or water soluble, so pilling may occur when layered with products. When mixed with heavy oils in a formula, the outcome is also quite greasy.

The way this mf stings is absolutely insane.
Pilling, drying, irritating, doesn’t work, and literally every bad thing you can say about a product.
0/10
Honestly want to give it more of a 3.5, but rounded up to be generous. Have seen good results using it so far, mainly with skin brightening, but dislike the fact that it's basically up to a coin toss whether or not it decides to properly absorb in the skin or pills/dries/sits on top of the skin.
