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

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!

Humectant, Skin Conditioning, Skin Protecting

Glycerin is already naturally found in your skin. It helps moisturize and protect your skin.

A study from 2016 found glycerin to be more effective as a humectant than AHAs and hyaluronic acid.

As a humectant, it helps the skin stay hydrated by pulling moisture to your skin. The low molecular weight of glycerin allows it to pull moisture into the deeper layers of your skin.

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.

In cosmetics, glycerin is usually derived from plants such as soybean or palm. However, it can also be sourced from animals, such as tallow or animal fat.

This ingredient is organic, colorless, odorless, and non-toxic.

Glycerin is the name for this ingredient in American English. British English uses Glycerol/Glycerine.

One of the best
This moisturizer is really good, but if you apply little excess you will feel sticky and need sometime to be absorbed.. it’s not treating acnes but it can try to maintain their level without excess of acne .. over all it’s one of the best not the best and i cant use it alone for perfect skin day

Awful compared to Beautifying Acne Cream from Vichy
Vichy for some reason discontinued their best selling beautifying Anti Acne moisturizing lotion. They reccomended this for me instead, and it is the worst moisturizer on the market in my opinion. It leaves me oily, doesn't mattify at all, refuses to absorb no matter how long or how much product is used, and worsened acne to a horrific degree. Show more
