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.

Overall, Butylene Glycol is a safe and well-rounded ingredient that works well with other ingredients.
Acrylates Copolymer is used as a film-forming agent and texture enhancer.

It is also used to make a product more thick.

I love this freckle stamp! It’s more compact than most and not as time consuming as a pen with a singular tip. My only feedback is I wish it was a lil bigger with more points - I still have to put decent time into layering the freckles. They look very natural.
