Ingredients Explained

These ingredients are found in both products.

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

Preservative

Phenoxyethanol is a preservative that has germicide, antimicrobial, and aromatic properties. Studies show that phenoxyethanol can prevent microbial growth. By itself, it has a scent that is similar to that of a rose.

It's often used in formulations along with Caprylyl Glycol to preserve the shelf life of products.

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!

This is the OG, the first, the gamechanger... this product allowed early-2000s me to wear eyeshadow, which previously ALWAYS creased on my young, greasy eyelids. The heavens opened, angels sang, etc etc. Since then, many duplicates have come out but I always come back to the OG because it never fails.

As soon as I put it on it made my eyelids burn. I had bumps over them. I never reacted to any other products like this so I was happy to try.
