Ingredients explained

Water

Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth

Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate

Mild cleanser with rich lather and low irritation; hygroscopic, requires moisture-resistant packaging

Stearyl Alcohol

Stearic alcohol; fatty alcohol for emulsion thickening/structure, often blended with soaps, moderate comedogenicity.

Glyceryl Stearate

Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification

Glyceryl Stearate SE

Emulsifier at 1–3%; oil-phase ingredient, easy emulsification, low sensitization.

Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate

Amino acid surfactant, gentle cleansing; rich foam, may sting eyes, good compatibility.

Sodium Methyl Cocoyl Taurate

Amino acid based mild surfactant, soft lather; cleaning power increases with salt but may dry out.

Sea Water

Natural ingredient with salts; acts as solvent or humectant, high salt content may feel gritty

Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Fruit Oil

Bergamot essential oil, natural fragrance and photosensitizer; limit daytime use or use FCF grade

Lavandula Hybrida Oil

Essential oil for emollience and fragrance; contains allergens like linalool, requires EU 26 labeling

Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol

Glyceryl Caprylate

Mild emulsifier/deodorant at 0.5-2%; polyol ester, high humectancy, low irritancy, check cationic surfactant compatibility.

Citric Acid

Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH

Butylene Glycol

Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel

1,2-Hexanediol

Polyol solvent and preservative booster at 1–5%; light feel, can replace some traditional preservatives

Pentylene Glycol

Polyol humectant at 1-3%; low irritancy, suitable for sensitive skin

Maltodextrin

High-MW multifunctional excipient for thickening, binding, and emulsion stability; inert, non-penetrating conditioning.
