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!

It is a great moisturiser. The only downside for me is the price. It’s very hydrating and I only need to use a small dollop of it across my face so it will last me a while. I use it before my makeup in the morning and at night with the rest of my rhode routine and everything works well together. There’s no pilling and it absorbs well. It doesn’t feel like a cream that dries down after ten minutes Show more
