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

It is a:
- Humectant, drawing moisture into the skin

Carbomer is a polymer of acrylic acid. Its main role is to create a gel consistency.
A high amount of carbomer can cause pilling or balling up of products. Don't worry, most products contain 1% or less of carbomer.
Arginine is an amino acid that is important for human development. Your body uses is it to produce hair keratin and skin collagen.
As a cosmetic ingredient, Arginine has antioxidant properties and can also help repair damaged skin. This ingredient is derived either synthetically or from animals.
Arginine isn't fungal acne safe when used in the presence of other lipids (fats, fatty acids, oils, esters, etc). Oils and fats occur naturally within the skin, so take caution when using Arginine if you're prone to fungal acne.

PURITO Oat-In Intense Cream 15 ingredients
For me, this moisturiser is very good during the colder months. It has calming and soothing properties, and is free of Hyaluronic Acid, niancinamide, etc., making it a reliable choice when your routine is already packed with actives or when you’re taking a break from them.
As someone with dry skin, I prefer this over Purito’s Oat-In Gel Moisturizer. It leaves my skin feeling soft and nourished Show more
I LUVV THIS
-packaging is unique to me and its scent is delicious, reminds me of the laneige korean toner scent.
-1. its moisturizing and seals in all the product i used on my face, but is sticky and takes time to absorb after application
-2. product dispense is controlled where a little can go a long way, for 150ML i feel like this will last me months bc of the easy spread, lightweight, Show more

this snail mucin essence really is one of the best ones out there— it's a holy grail. this product was my very first impression of cosrx, and the short ingredient list is very surprising with how effective it is. i've been using it for about a year now, and it's become a staple in my routine. after my first couple weeks of use, a lot of my dark spots disappeared and calmed down my hormonal acne & Show more
This ruined my face! I didn’t know that my dust mite allergy also made me allergic to this. I used it for five months and everything seemed fine, but then I started to get a goatee of fungal acne with big red patches. I’d also been getting a lot of big pimples in my hairline from it. It’s taken me months to understand what happened and to soothe my sad skin. Be warned not to jump off the bridge Show more
