โ Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. This moisturizer is free of retinoids, salicylic acid, hydroquinone, chemical sunscreens, and other ingredients commonly flagged during pregnancy. All 35 ingredients are considered safe for use during pregnancy and breastfeeding. However, always consult your OB-GYN or dermatologist before introducing any new skincare product during pregnancy.
Use with caution. The formula contains two fermented ingredients โ Leuconostoc/Radish Root Ferment Filtrate and Lactobacillus Ferment โ which some sources flag as potentially problematic for fungal acne. However, the formula is oil-free, contains no fatty acid esters or polysorbates, and many users with fungal acne report success with this product due to its high glycerin content, which can help prevent yeast overgrowth. Patch test first if you are sensitive to ferments.
Yes. This is a gentle, hydrating moisturizer with no active acids or retinoids. It pairs well with all common actives including retinol, vitamin C serums, AHAs (glycolic, lactic acid), and BHAs (salicylic acid). Its calming chamomile and calendula ingredients may actually help soothe potential irritation from stronger actives. Apply actives first, then layer this moisturizer on top.
This moisturizer is designed for all skin types but is especially loved by those with oily, combination, and acne-prone skin. Its oil-free, silicone-free, lightweight gel texture absorbs quickly without adding shine. For dry skin, it works as a hydrating layer but should be topped with a facial oil or richer cream for adequate moisture sealing. Sensitive skin types generally tolerate it well thanks to the fragrance-free, alcohol-free formula.
You will notice immediate hydration and a dewy glass skin glow after the first application. Skin calming and improved texture typically become noticeable within 1-2 weeks of consistent use. For visible brightening and more even skin tone from the licorice and mulberry extracts, expect 4-6 weeks. Full microbiome-strengthening and barrier-improvement benefits develop over 8-12 weeks of consistent AM and PM use.
Apply as the last step of your skincare routine, after cleansing, toning, and serums. Use both AM and PM. In the morning, follow with sunscreen. For dry skin types, layer a face oil (like Peach & Lily Pure Beam Luxe Oil) on top to seal in the hydration. It layers smoothly under makeup without pilling.
No. This moisturizer has a comedogenic rating of 1 out of 5, making it non-comedogenic. It is oil-free, silicone-free, and contains no known pore-clogging ingredients such as coconut oil, lanolin, or isopropyl myristate. It is specifically formulated for acne-prone skin and does not clog pores or cause breakouts according to the brand and user reviews.
The product has a Period After Opening (PAO) of 12 months. Once opened, use within one year for optimal freshness and efficacy. The airless pump packaging helps preserve the formula by minimizing exposure to air and bacteria. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. A travel size (25ml / 0.84 fl oz) is also available if you want to try it before committing to the full size.
Verdict: The Peach & Lily Glass Skin Water-Gel Moisturizer delivers on its promise of lightweight, instant hydration with a luminous finish. Its clean, fragrance-free formula with triple hyaluronic acid and a vegan prebiotic complex makes it an outstanding choice for oily, combination, and acne-prone skin types seeking that coveted glass skin glow. The main drawback is the $40 price for a 50ml bottle and that very dry skin types will need additional layering. If you value clean ingredients, K-beauty innovation, and a truly weightless moisturizer that plays well with actives, this is a top-tier option in the gel moisturizer category.

Understanding Silicones
If you've ever used a skincare, makeup or beauty product that's made your skin look and feel smoother tempoarily - it's likely contained Silicone. They are a popular class of ingredients found in cosmetics due to their smooth, soft, easy-to-spread and smooth properties that help creates an artificial layer/barrier on top of skin or hair (commonly found in conditioners).
For the same reasons they are popularly used, they are also commonly avoided. Anecdotally, many individuals have reported that Silicones cause/excerbate breakouts, irritation, cause a feeling of skin being unable to breathe, cause clumping of cosmetic products and find it difficult to wash off. As a result, those who find them problematic are avoiding them and increasingly, cosmetic companies are avoiding them as well.
If you have had bad experiences with Silicones in the past, or suspect they are problematic then look out for the tick on the Silicone-free label.
Disclaimer
The Silicone-free label only includes the most common Silicone ingredients that have indentified been reported by individuals that could potentially cause issues.
These include: Amodimethicone, Behenoxy Dimethicone, Bis-Aminopropyl Dimethicone, Cetearyl Methicone, Cetyl Dimethicone, Cyclomethicone, Cyclopentasiloxane, Dimethicone, Dimethicone Copolyol, Dimethiconol, Methicone, Phenyl Trimethicone, Phenyl Trimethicone, Stearoxy Dimethicone, Stearyl Dimethicone, Trimethylsilylamodimethicone.

EU Allergen-Free
EU Allergen-Free
Understanding the Identified Contact Allergens
The EU's Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (SCCS) has identified and established 26 cosmetic ingredients that are likely contact allergens (potential to cause skin allergies) as demonstrated in clinical or epidemiological studies. The EU's SCCS have recommend cosmetic companies to disclose them on the labels if used and in cases where the concentration exceeds 0.001% in leave-on products and 0.01% in rinse-off products, then they must be labelled.
Look out for the tick on the EU-Allergen free label to know your cosmetic is free from any of the 26 identified cosmetic ingredients.
For more information regarding the EU's Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety, please visit their official website.
Disclaimer
The EU Allergen Free label is for the 26 ingredients identified by the EU SCCS and products will be only flagged if a suspected ingredient is on it's ingredient list. It is possible for cosmetics to contain one of the suspect ingredients without it appearing on the ingredient list due to it not reaching the concentration threshold to disclose it and cosmetic manufacturers choice to not disclose it.
Also note, the EU Allergen Free label is not personalized for your own allergies you may have and it does not constitute as medical advice. For your specific case, always consult your medical professiona such as dermatologist, physician, pharmacist, or health care provider - please read our medical disclaimer for more information.
Fungal Acne (Molassezia) Safe
Fungal Acne (Molassezia) Safe
Understanding Fungal Acne (Pityrosporum Folliculitis/Malassezia Folliculitis)
Pityrosporum Folliculitis/Malassezia folliculitis or simply known as Fungal Acne is a persistent acne-like condition that commonly responds poorly to traditional acne-treating methods. Unlike most cases of Acne where bacteria is the culprit, Fungi is the culprit of Fungal Acne (Hence the name!). There are certain classes & groups of ingredients that have been shown to promote and feed the growth of the Fungal Acne, Fungi such as fatty acids, oils, esters, polysorbates and fermented ingredients.
For more information regarding Fungal Acne, please visit Simple Skincare Science (f.c) - #3 of our Recommend Skincare Resources for an amazing comprehensive guide!
Please Read: How to use the Fungal Acne (Malassezia) Label
At SkinCarisma, we've done our best to identify as many ingredients as possible but note the fungal-free label may not be 100% accurate due to the complexconditions and combination of ingredients that malezzeria can thrive on.
Additionally, products that may contain ingredients that have shown to feed Malassezia may not neccessarily exacerbate the condition due to concentration of ingredient used in the product, this information is simply not available on the products.
As a result, please note this is only an experimental label that can be best used to possible identify problematic products you have used in the past. It is in no way a perfect identifier nor a predictor in whether or not it will exacerbate or cause fungal acne. It will continue to be worked on as more information and research comes to light.
If you find any ingredients you believe should be included, please email us at snails@skincarisma.com.
Disclaimer
Due to the lack of substantial research into this area it is very likely there are other ingredients and class/groups of ingredients that could feed Fungal Acne which have not been indentified.
The Fungal-Safe label does not constitute as medical advice. For your specific case, always consult your medical professiona such as dermatologist, physician, pharmacist, or health care provider - please read our medical disclaimer for more information.
What are Notable Effects & Ingredients?
Ever used a product that promised a certain effect but provided no results? It might not have contained any notable ingredients that could have been responsible for that promised effect. It doesn't matter what the marketing or packaging ยซpromisesยป it can do, if it doesn't contain anything that can help - then the likelihood of it helping is low.
We help you identify key notable ingredients that have been shown to help with effects such as acne-fighting, brightening, UV-protection, wound healing & anti-aging to help you achieve your skincare goals smarter. Please note that different notable ingredients have varying levels of research behind them, some are extremely well proven yet some have mixed research in their efficacy.
Pro Tip Alert!
Just because a product doesn't contain any notable ingredients doesn't mean it's bad. And a product with notable ingredients (or even many) doesn't necessarily guarantee the efficacy of the product performing these effects either. There are other factors such as ingredient quality, concentration and formulation that will ultimately determine this.
Be smart and use this as just a starting point for you to make more informed and smarter choices and compare it with reviews to see if the product is right for you

What is the Ingredient Safety Breakdown?
Ingredient Safety Breakdown refers to the percentage % of ingredients in different risk categories as classified by EWG (Environment Working Group) if they are available. There are almost endless cosmetic ingredients and they are one of the few organisations globally that have assigned ratings to a lot of the more commonly used ingredients which is why we reference them.
Pro Tip Alert!
EWG is seen by many to be more on the alarmist side in their assignment of health ratings resulting in rating ingredients as riskier than they actually are. We recommend using this a reference point rather than a strict guide of ingredient safety and to always do further research if into ingredients that you may find suspect.
