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.

Learn more about Pentylene GlycolCitrus Aurantium Bergamia Fruit Oil is the oil from the bergamot orange. It is native to Italy.
This ingredient is used to add fragrance to products. It contains limonene, linalool, and linalyl acetate.
The term 'fragrance' is not regulated in many countries. In many cases, it is up to the brand to define this term. For instance, many brands choose to label themselves as "fragrance-free" because they are not using synthetic fragrances. However, their products may still contain ingredients such as essential oils that are considered a fragrance.
When used topically, Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Fruit Oil is a photosensitizer due to its furanocoumarins. Photosensitizers make the skin and eyes much more sensitive to sunlight. Photosensitizers are linked to skin cancer.

Love this cleansing water for oily skin
I use this product every day and it has been my favorite for removing makeup in the evening and for prepping my face for my morning skincare routine!
A great toner
I'm happy with this toner. It does the job of cleaning up any last bit of makeup or dirt that my cleanser didn't catch. It hasn't caused any bad skin reactions. And I happen to love how it's named "beauty water" and has a simple, elegant looking container.

something in this causes a cross allergic reaction to my skin, it's probably the mugwort but after a couple minutes red rashes form on my skin
update: turns out i have dermatographia! but i found the heavy fragrances were causing the irritation
amazing soothing toner to calm down skin with redness, flakyness, texture and dullness. it's a watery toner that absorbs quick into the skin and can be layered with ease. it leaves a semi matte finish, depending on how many layers u use of this toner. it does have a strong, noticable herbal fragrance, but my skin didn't mind it and wasn't sensitive/sensitized after the use. i use 2-3 layers every Show more
