Ingredients Explained

These ingredients are found in both products.

Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.

Skin Conditioning, Solvent

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

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 preservatives 
Humectant, Masking, Skin Conditioning

Butylene Glycol (or BG) is used within cosmetic products for a few different reasons:

Overall, Butylene Glycol is a safe and well-rounded ingredient that works well with other ingredients.

Though this ingredient works well with most skin types, some people with sensitive skin may experience a reaction such as allergic rashes, closed comedones, or itchiness.

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!

Skin Conditioning

Ethylhexylglycerin (we can't pronounce this either) is commonly used as a preservative and skin softener. It is derived from glyceryl.

You might see Ethylhexylglycerin often paired with other preservatives such as phenoxyethanol. Ethylhexylglycerin has been found to increase the effectiveness of these other preservatives.

used this last winter. Usually I have oily skin but in winter my skin becomes a dry one. It gave me enough hydration even in the winter(I'm someone from South Asia), didn't broke out at all (I've acne prone skin, always tend to have acne and enlarge pores), has a refreshing lime fragrance so if you are not fragrance sensitive then give it a try. It's really a soothing, calming and kinda underrated Show more

It absorb quite fast on my skin, the scent wash refreshing. And the finish look after applying is quite good too, A bit like satin finish

Cons:
The gel is slippery, so it often spills down when It was placed on my finger
My skin feels dry after the application, dunno what will this do on dry skin, because of the dryness, My forehead looks textured

After all, it has significant effect Show more
