Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.

In small amounts, sodium hydroxide is considered safe to use. However, large amounts may cause chemical burns due to its high alkaline.

Good for oily skin! Watery base... absorbs quickly ..... ingredients are on point! But not waterproof!
