Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Glycerin is already naturally found in your skin. It helps moisturize and protect your skin.
A study from 2016 found glycerin to be more effective as a humectant than AHAs and hyaluronic acid.
As a humectant, it helps the skin stay hydrated by pulling moisture to your skin. The low molecular weight of glycerin allows it to pull moisture into the deeper layers of your skin.
Hydrated skin improves your skin barrier; Your skin barrier helps protect against irritants and bacteria.
Glycerin has also been found to have antimicrobial and antiviral properties. Due to these properties, glycerin is often used in wound and burn treatments.
In cosmetics, glycerin is usually derived from plants such as soybean or palm. However, it can also be sourced from animals, such as tallow or animal fat.
This ingredient is organic, colorless, odorless, and non-toxic.
Glycerin is the name for this ingredient in American English. British English uses Glycerol/Glycerine.
Learn more about GlycerinWater. 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!
Learn more about WaterEthylhexylglycerin (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.

I haven't used this product for a long time, so I'll update my review if I notice any changes. But so far, I LOVE this moisturizer! I have a combo dehydrated acne/FA prone skin, and this leaves my skin feeling so so smooth, For me personally this doesn't feel sticky at all. On the contrary, absorbs really fast unlike other gel moisturizers that just sit on top. On my skin it leave a matte finish. Show more
it doesn’t clog my pores and i’m VERY clogged prone (if that’s even a thing) anyway i have oily skin and this is good for every season BUT the winter!! it’s not hydrating enough i have to pair with with a toner and to be honest it also makes my skin look dull and dry in the winter!! so by itself in the winter i rate it 2.5/5 but paired with a toner i rate it 5/5! very lightweight and i love how it Show more

It has a heavy texture, moisturizes well and doesn't leave any tackiness. It is perfect to apply just before going to sleep as it absorbs quickly and will not ''stay on your pillow''. I also used it around my eyes and never got any irritation. I wouldn't recommend using it during day time as it might leave a bit of a white cast. My actual rating is 4.5 because the only downside is chalkiness which Show more
Irritated my skin after 1 application.
