Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.

Humectant, Masking, Skin Conditioning

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

  • It is a solvent, meaning that it helps to dissolve other ingredients. This also enhances the absorption of the product into one's skin.
  • It is a humectant, which means that it helps attract moisture into the skin.
  • It helps improve product application.
  • It has mild preservative properties.

Overall, Butylene Glycol is a safe and well-rounded ingredient that works well with other ingredients.

It is a:

  • Humectant, drawing moisture into the skin
  • Emollient, helping to soften skin
  • Solvent, dispersing and stabilizing formulas

I wanted to like this cream, but I just can't. I was hoping it would be good for Canadian winter but it's not moisturizing enough. Oddly enough, it made my skin feel really oily which is uncomfortable. It feels like it doesn't really sink into my skin, and that's disappointing.

I disagree with a couple reviewers here: this is more hydrating than other FA-safe moisturizers. My skin was having irritation breakouts and this calmed my skin right away and I wake up glowier and balanced.

it is really simple
the cream is thick, there is no dominant fragrance, once you apply it to your face the cream melts, really smooth and easy to apply. It's a bit sticky at first but after a few minutes after it sinks in and dries, it gives healthy glow to my face. I'm really happy to find this cream because it's really hard for me to find a suitable moisturizer. plus, this cream is fungal acne Show more
