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!

There are two forms of panthenol: D and L.
D-panthenol is also known as dexpanthenol. Most cosmetics use dexpanthenol or a mixture of D and L-panthenol.
Panthenol is famous due to its ability to go deeper into the skin's layers. Using this ingredient has numerous pros (and no cons):
Like hyaluronic acid, panthenol is a humectant. Humectants are able to bind and hold large amounts of water to keep skin hydrated.
This ingredient works well for wound healing. It works by increasing tissue in the wound and helps close open wounds.
Once oxidized, panthenol converts to pantothenic acid. Panthothenic acid is found in all living cells.
This ingredient is also referred to as pro-vitamin B5.

Been using this for years but honestly, when it comes to fighting acne, this cleanser doesn't seem to have any effect on my skin. It leaves a somewhat "filmy" feeling afterward, which wasn't a pleasant experience initially, but I'm starting to get used to it over time. Doesn't remove sunscreen or any light makeup. Just a regular gentle and malassezia safe cleanser that doesn't exacerbate my skin Show more
Does its job
Not stripping, cleanses well.

Gentle formula suppose for sensitive skin but sadly it gave me closed comedones
Great for the price. It is fungal acne safe but for my oily skin it is a bit too dry. I love the texture!
