Skin Conditioning, Solvent

1,2-Hexanediol is a synthetic liquid and another multi-functional powerhouse.

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!

This is hands down the best product I’ve ever tried on my sensitive skin.

It’s really calming, very hydrating, improves texture of the skin, it also brightens but just a little

This has been the only product my skin can tolerate alongside green tea toner but I prefer this, and to think I only use this toner in my skin care alongside Simple micellar face wash for sensitive skin and that’s Show more

I was very skeptical about this product but once I tried this, my eczema on my forehead significantly reduced. Acne-prone and sensitive skin will EAT this up.
