Ingredients explained

Aqua

Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical

Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil

Sunflower seed oil for emollient/occlusive; high linoleic acid, low comedogenicity.

Vitis Vinifera Seed Oil

Grapeseed oil, lightweight emollient and antioxidant; high linoleic acid, suitable for oily and combination skin.

Glycerin

Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives

Glyceryl Stearate

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

Butyrospermum Parkii Butter

Shea butter for occlusive moisturizing; high melt point, rich texture, caution for oily skin.

Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil

Common in dry/damaged hair; superior penetration vs mineral oils, low comedogenic risk, poor oxidative stability.

Glyceryl stearate citrate

Emulsifying stabilizer and emollient at 2–5%; provides creamy texture, check compatibility with anionic surfactants

Cetearyl Alcohol

Fatty alcohol emulsifier at 1-5%; non-ionic surfactant

Bisabolol

Soothing and anti-inflammatory agent, 0.01–0.1%; low irritation, good for sensitive skin.

Chamomilla Recutita Flower Extract

Plant extract, soothing properties; contains natural allergens, high levels may irritate.

Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice Powder

Aloe extract powder for soothing/moisturizing; low solubility, needs dispersion

Sodium gluconate

Mild chelator, aids skin conditioning; typically used at low levels as auxiliary

Sodium stearoyl glutamate

Mild amino-acid surfactant, poor solubility, pairs with fatty alcohols, fine foam.

Dehydroacetic Acid

Broad-spectrum preservative for acidic and oil-based systems; has concentration limits, requires challenge testing.

Xanthan Gum

Natural thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, pH-stable, requires full hydration

Benzyl Alcohol

Mild preservative/solvent at 0.5-1.0%; EU allergen (labeling required), irritation risk if concentrated, avoid in infant/highly sensitive skin.

Lactic Acid

AHA pH adjuster at 0.5-5%; exfoliation/humectancy, mild at low conc., irritating at high, avoid conflict with alkaline preservatives.

Ethylhexylglycerin

Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel

Tocopherol

Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light

Sodium Citrate

Sodium citrate for buffering and chelating; adjust pH, careful with strong acid reactions.
