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!

SebaMed Clear Face Antibacterial Cleansing Foam 8 ingredients
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.

This is a pretty decent salicylic acid cleanser. This works ideally once a day for every day use (I tried using it 2x a day and it was too stripping). It has a strange chemical like fragrance but I got used to it. It's amber in colour and doesn't foam much. All in all, it's a good cleanser and does what it claims to do.
