Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Zinc Oxide is a mineral broad-spectrum UV filter; it is the broadest UVA and UVB reflector approved by the FDA. While it is most commonly man-made for cosmetics, it can naturally occur in zincite, a rare mineral.
Today, traditional and nano-sized zinc oxide can be found in beauty products. Nano-sized zinc oxide can enhance a product's UV protection. While it is not believed to have a negative effect on skin, nano-zinc oxide may be harmful to coral reefs - though the verdict is not entirely out on this one.
Zinc Oxide also has antibacterial and calming properties. It is not water soluble.
Zinc has been used throughout history as an ingredient in paint and medicine. An Indian text from 500BC is believed to list zinc oxide as a salve for open wound. The Ancient Greek physician Dioscorides has also mentioned the use of zinc as an ointment in 1AD.

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!

Best product I’ve ever used for acne, which I didn’t expect since it has Oleic acid and Beeswax in it. When I use it my acne goes away overnight
Sombra_763's review convinced me to give this a try, and I'm glad I did. It visibly reduced the size and inflammation of pimples in just one night. If they ate not too big, they are just gone.
Properly (but gently) clean and hydrate your skin beforehand, use it at night or when at home so you can leave it on for a few hours (don't go to bed right away or it'll rub off on your pillow and not do Show more

For my girlies who pick their skin - this is a life saver. Very good for spot-treating breakouts at night since its antibacterial, heals the breakout and visibly decreases redness on a blemish.
Put it on top of a blemish at night and in the morning the blemish will look so much better.
great for acne
