CeraVe Moisturising Cream (Europe) vs. MSD Emolene Propylene Glycol Cream
Position 1

#1Water

Origin: natural
Role: Solvent
EWG Rating [ 1 ]

Water is a great solvent. It’s neutral and doesn’t provide any strong positive or negative effects. It just helps components to mix better and to transport active components.

-- versus --

#1Lecithin

Origin: natural
Role: Skin conditioning agent, Antistatic agent, Emollient, Emulsifying agent, Surfactant
Antioxidant
Softening
Tones up skin
EWG Rating [ 1 ]

Lecithin is a great emulsifier. It also has slight antioxidant activity, but it’s not enough if you are looking for a strong and effective anti-oxidant. Our skin cells contain Lecithin and that’s why this component will hardly cause any problems or negative reactions. It soaks in pretty fast and it’s accepted by skin cells very well.
