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!

It’s often used to:
Propanediol is not likely to cause sensitivity and considered safe to use. It is derived from corn or petroleum with a clear color and no scent.

It is a:
- Humectant, drawing moisture into the skin
- Emollient, helping to soften skin
- Solvent, dispersing and stabilizing formulas
- Preservative booster, enhancing the antimicrobial activity of other preservativesÂ
Betaine is a common humectant (a substance that promotes retention of moisture). It's known to be gentle on the skin and can help balance hydration.
This ingredient is best for improving hydration and soothing irritated skin. Studies also show it helps even out skin tone.
Fun fact: Betaine is naturally created in the skin and body. The kind found within cosmetic products can be either plant-derived or synthetic.
Learn more about BetaineHydroxyethylcellulose is used to improve the texture of products. It is created from a chemical reaction involving ethylene oxide and alkali-cellulose. Cellulose is a sugar found in plant cell walls and help give plants structure.
This ingredient helps stabilize products by preventing ingredients from separating. It can also help thicken the texture of a product.
This ingredient can also be found in pill medicines to help our bodies digest other ingredients.
Learn more about HydroxyethylcellulosePanthenol is a common ingredient that helps hydrate and soothe the skin. It is found naturally in our skin and hair.
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.

SKIN1004 Poremizing Light Gel Cream 51 ingredients
Light weight, fungal acne safe, doesn't clog my pores and the niacinamide lightens a little bit my hiperpigmentation. Overall one of the only moisturisers that don't cause me acne breakouts.
Something to keep in mind is that it's mostly for people who DON'T have dry skin and even better if they live in a humid climate, otherwise, could be not enough moisture and hydration.
This product doesn't work for me, rather it breaks me out.
As someone who has fungal acne and comedonal acne with acne-prone skin and combination skin, I have used this product thinking that it would work for me since I researched a lot when it comes to using a new product, I was delighted thinking that I would have a moisturizer that would work for problems but when I've used this product it Show more

TL;DR: Safe for sensitive and acne-prone skin. Expensive, but lasts me a long time. Doesn't pill.
I tried the moisturizer first, then bought this, and I think I like this more. I use this on rotation with my prescription actives, and it doesn't seem to irritate my skin. It also didn't break me out, which is amazing, and goes on smooth. It doesn't pill with my other products, and I've had this Show more
When I bought their moisturizer (which became my HG), it came with a sample of this. I used it up and immediately liked it enough to invest in a full size (invest bc this brand isn't cheap:/). I'm suprised both their products are THIS good, whoever formulates this is a genius.
This doesn't break me out, clog my pores, irritate me, nothing. It's FA safe. It hydrates my skin and makes it GLOWY. Show more
