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!
Learn more about WaterCaprylyl Glycol is a humectant and emollient, meaning it attracts and preserves moisture.
It is a common ingredient in many products, especially those designed to hydrate skin. The primary benefits are retaining moisture, skin softening, and promoting a healthy skin barrier.
Though Caprylyl Glycol is an alcohol derived from fatty acids, it is not the kind that can dry out skin.
This ingredient is also used as a preservative to extend the life of products. It has slight antimicrobial properties.

This product doesnt break me out and it applies a layer of shine on my face that makes it look plump and hydrated. It has fragrance into it, which I dont mind as long as it doesnt make me breakout.
borrowed this from my mom a few times if we went overseas and i forgot to bring my own cleanser. this made my skin feeling SUPER TIGHT my face can barely move. i don’t think it suited for dry skin girlies like me😔

Too much work
My skin is a combination type so I struggle with a lot of oil production BUT dehydration-prone type. So, I was actually skeptical about this product. However, it did the job for me just fine at the end? It actually reduced all the redness around my T-Zone. Also it is really effective against new appearing pimples. Like, give it two days and it will heal just because of this cleanser. Show more
(for context i have very dry sensitive-ish acne prone skin) i tried this when i was just getting into skincare and didnt know my skin type and what would and wouldnt work and thought that everyone that had acne automatically had the same skin type and someone recommended this cleanser to me they said that it helped them get rid of their acne (they have oily acne prone skin) and i used it it was Show more
