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!

Buffering, Masking

Citric Acid is an AHA derived from citrus fruits (think oranges, lemons, and limes!).

As an AHA, Citric Acid removes the top layer of skin cells from the newer layer of skin underneath. This helps skin to remove dark spots and even out skin tone.

If you spot Citric Acid near the end of an ingredient list, it's likely there as a pH adjuster rather than an active ingredient.

On the expensive side for a micellar water but it's faultless for me. Simple, FA safe, no reaction, hydrating, no fragrance. Not looking for a new one unless it claims to airbrush my skin, I'm happily settling down with her since I usually react badly to micellar water

A very gentle and hydrating micellar water. It gets rid of my makeup effectively, except for waterproof mascara. I don’t experience any irritation and it leaves my skin feeling a bit more hydrated. I still prefer using an oil cleanser to remove makeup, but this is a good micellar option. Plus, it comes in a big bottle.

I identify more as sensitive than dry, but I found it stripping my skin constantly. I’m thinking I just had a bad reaction to the sea salt but even just on the back of my hand it dried my skin out significantly too. It even worsened my eczema on my wrist. I couldn’t even push myself to finish the bottle my reaction was that bad.
