Ingredients Explained

These ingredients are found in both products.

Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.

Emollient, Masking

Isopropyl Myristate is an emollient, thickening agent, and texture enhancer. It is created from isopropyl alcohol and myristic acid.

It is used to help other ingredients be better absorbed. It is also an emollient and may help soften and hydrate the skin.

The comedogenic rating of this ingredient depends on the concentration. Lower amounts results in a lower rating.

Isopropyl Myristate may not be fungal acne safe. It can potentially worsen acne prone skin.

Sorbeth-30 Tetraoleate is a surfactant and emulsifier.

This ingredient is a tetraester from oleic acid and polyethylene glycol ether of sorbitol.

As an emulsifier, it helps ingredients such as oil and water mix together. This allows the dirt and oils in your skin to be washed away.

One study found pumpkin oil containing Sorbeth-30 Tetraoleate helped hydrate the skin and did not cause any irritation.

Clogged up my skin completely and wrecked havoc. The following weeks, I dealt with redness and bumpy skin afterwards

good for removing sunscreen, but if you use it your face will feel super soft, that's because it leaves a thick residue layer behind, I was shocked the first time I used it as it, after already using my water cleanser, emulsified again with my toner (first and only time to ever happen to me with an oil cleanser), so you have to really scrub your face to get rid of it.

a thicker oil cleanser, i dont think its amazing for acne or clog-prone skin. it does get rid of a full face of makeup without much work, not a bad budget option if breakouts aren't an issue.
