Skin Conditioning, Solvent

1,2-Hexanediol is a synthetic liquid and another multi-functional powerhouse.

  • Humectant, drawing moisture into the skin

Humectant, Skin Conditioning

Sodium Hyaluronate is hyaluronic acid's salt form. It is commonly derived from the sodium salt of hyaluronic acid.

Like hyaluronic acid, it is great at holding water and acts as a humectant. This makes it a great skin hydrating ingredient.

Sodium Hyaluronate is naturally occurring in our bodies and is mostly found in eye fluid and joints.

Ethylhexylglycerin (we can't pronounce this either) is commonly used as a preservative and skin softener. It is derived from glyceryl.

You might see Ethylhexylglycerin often paired with other preservatives such as phenoxyethanol. Ethylhexylglycerin has been found to increase the effectiveness of these other preservatives.

You know how I realized this was my holy grail? When I was almost out of it, went to repurchase and there were ZERO in stock, anywhere. Online, Ulta - everywhere was out of stock. [This was around March 2023. Must've been a logistics issue!]. What made the situation even more dire was that I was moving from the United States to Japan, and feared I wouldn't be able to purchase the product.

Not amazing, not terrible. Using it up since I have it, but haven’t noticed any significant improvements. It’s not causing any negative effects though.

This toner works so efficiently for my super sensitive, seborrheic dermatitis, and fungal acne skin. I have used it for a full year now, and I can't go back to anything else! My face has become so much plumper and bright compared to when I wasn't using this toner. My skin was quite dull and dry before, but this has given it so much glow and bounce! Since there are anti-fungal properties in this as Show more
