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!
Learn more about WaterXanthan gum is used as a stabilizer and thickener within cosmetic products. It helps give products a sticky, thick feeling - preventing them from being too runny.
On the technical side of things, xanthan gum is a polysaccharide - a combination consisting of multiple sugar molecules bonded together.
Xanthan gum is a pretty common and great ingredient. It is a natural, non-toxic, non-irritating ingredient that is also commonly used in food products.

Here's what our community thinks
The INKEY List Hyaluronic Acid Cleanser 19 ingredients
In general, the texture looks like it is a fine mild cleanser. Yet, I unfortunately broke out from it. My skin (and also personally) doesn't like cetaeryl alcohol, stearic acid and especially not Coco-Glucoside made from coconut oil. I'd recommend the Geek and Gorgeous, Jelly Joker cleanser, instead!
It works fine for me and lasts ages
It's a pretty good cleanser for the price. It's nothing to write home about, but I have no complaints.
Needs to be paired with some sort of cleansing balm in a double cleanse if you have make-up on.

I wouldn't recommend this product for sensitive skin; it turned my skin red and it burned. I do not like it, plus it's very expensive!
Ouch. This face wash stung and turned my face bright red. I don’t recommend it if you’re dry or have sensitive skin.
