Looks like jelly and have transparency in appearance are gel-based cosmetics. They look like a cross between solid and liquid but don't behave like anyone of them. They are more similar to liquids as they are mostly water-based. They get more quickly absorbed by the skin.

Cream-based cosmetics too are water-based but some creams have oil content too or can say oil-based. Creams are thicker in the constituency and that's why take more time to absorb. Earlier people had only one choice and that was cream based till the time gel came into existence.

• A gel is transparent however cream is not.
• Gels are mostly colorless and get absorbed with the application. Although creams have a color but once applied that color is not visible on the skin and they take more time to absorb.
• Gels are generally oil-free and that's why preferred for some special skin types and not prone to acne however creams do have an oil base, not in all but some.
• Gels can come in different colors but creams generally have the appearance of white.
