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 is known to treat acne by reducing inflammation. It also helps fade dark-spots and strengthen the skin by promoting the growth of the ceramide barrier.
Other benefits include smoothing wrinkles and minimizing redness.
The cherry on top? Niacinamide can also help build keratin, a protein that keeps skin firm.
When incorporating niacinamide into your routine, look out for concentration amounts. Typically, 5% niacinamide provides benefits such as fading dark spots. However, if you have sensitive skin, it is better to begin with a smaller concentration.
Niacinamide can be mixed with other ingredients to boost benefits. For instance, it has shown to be effective when used with copper, folic acid, and zinc to treat acne.

Hydrated skin improves your skin barrier; Your skin barrier helps protect against irritants and bacteria.
Glycerin has also been found to have antimicrobial and antiviral properties. Due to these properties, glycerin is often used in wound and burn treatments.

This has been my favourite barrier supporting ampoule/serum to date! My skin soaks this up I use this both am and pm (with a little more in the pm). I have dry, sensitive and rosacea prone skin and this hasn’t ever aggravated anything, no reactions, blends effortlessly and just gives me a hydrated glowy look! Love it! It’s a creamy ampoule but not super thick and just melts into the skin. It’s so Show more
Lovely texture and a good value. Unfortunately, my skin reacted violently to it, it was very irritating, especially around my cheekbones. It is ironic because it’s marketed as soothing and calming for sensitive skin, and I’m not even that sensitive. My suspicion is that I can’t tolerate fermented ingredients because it happened with some other fermented products as well.
