Ingredients Explained

These ingredients are found in both products.

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

Skin Conditioning, Solvent

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!

Never gave me the miracle results I've seen all over TikTok but served me well for the 3+ years I was on this.

Been on this for 4 years. It does not perform miracles but it does keep your skin youthful to some extent sans procedures. Worked on reducing inflammation and acne but dried my skin out, even after a full year of consistent use. With this, sunscreen is non-negotiable.

Made a difference in my hyperpigmentation
Made a larger change in fading my hyperpigmentation than the ordinary niacinamide, the extra HA also provided an extra bit of moisture which is good, would have liked to see bigger changes after using it for 6 weeks though...
