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!

Caprylic Triglyceride is made by combining glycerin with coconut oil, forming a clear liquid.

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

Holy Grail
This comes out of the bottle looking like a cream but kinda turns into water on the skin. It absorbs so well and is perfect for those that hate feeling like there's a layer left on the skin. The miminal ingredient list is a lifesaver for hypersensitive skin. After trying 15+ moisturizers looking for something that didn't burn, itch, or break me out, I finally found this.

Nice simple moisturiser, but it is quite pricey so won't repurchase.
