The most used ingredient in skincare. Its concentration defines the product texture: rich creams may have about 50% of water while a light jelly about 90%. Water doesn’t moisturize the skin by itself and is used in skincare as a solvent for other ingredients.

The most popular moisturizing ingredient in the world. It is a powerful humectant – cheap yet very effective.

Hamamelis Virginiana (Witch Hazel) Water
