Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Water. 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!

I double cleanse in the shower, and this wash is so gentle and hydrating with a beautiful foam. It doesn't irritate my dry, acne-prone skin and I can use it as a facial cleanser if I have to. Plus it's $22 for 1.25L not on sale, so it's incredible value.
I use this as my second step foaming cleanser (following a first step oil cleanse to remove sunscreen and makeup) - it is not enough to remove heavy (e.g. zinc based) sunscreens or makeup on its own. It is a milky, lightly foaming cleanser that is hydrating and super gentle for face and body. I buy the 1L pump for the shower, and decant some into another pump to use at the sink.

My always go to makeup removal
It was introduced to me by a skin doctor when treating my skin barrier damage. I did try out other brands, but I always come back to this product after that.
