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.

Helps fade inflammatory hyperpigmentation, but slowly
It took about 18 months of once- to twice-daily use of this to fade my melasma patches to being unnoticeable. It was re-triggered by a recent holiday and sunburn, and I'm not willing to wait that long for them to fade this time. I don't plan to buy this again.
