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!

On the technical side of things, xanthan gum is a polysaccharide - a combination consisting of multiple sugar molecules bonded together.
Xanthan gum is a pretty common and great ingredient. It is a natural, non-toxic, non-irritating ingredient that is also commonly used in food products.

Honestly, not too bad. Sometimes it did run into my eyes, but I'd say that was around only 5% of the time. It's avalible in my area and it does what it says it does.

BEWARE: I got a fake one from Amazon, it caused break outs on my skin and dried out during the day within few hours. The tube (packaging) is 100% aluminum and has a gloss pastel yellow packaging color. The fake one is plastic tube and has matt grayish yellow packaging color. See pictures in comparison (left is real and right is fake). Do not recommend buying it from Amazon at all.

I really wanted to love it!
I love the ingredients, the way it sits on my face, the dewiness it leaves on application, it even helps with the hyperpigmentation scars. BUT! It also makes me break out- which is such a bummer because other than that I really do love this product :(
