Ingredients explained
- Water/Aqua/Eau
- Primary aqueous solvent and carrier; no specific incompatibilities, focus on microbial stability.
- Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride
- Light occlusive and solvent at 1–10%; non-greasy feel, suitable for oily and combination skin
- Heptyl Undecylenate
- Heptyl undecylenate, light emollient ester; fresh feel, non-greasy, low comedogenic risk
- Niacinamide
- Niacinamide at 2–5%; improves texture, controls oil, brightens; high levels may cause sensitivity
- Polyacrylate-13
- Not decoded yet
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Retinol
- Highly active and unstable, needs robust antioxidant encapsulation; 0.1-1.0%, pregnancy contraindicated
- Ubiquinone
- Coenzyme Q10 analog used as an antioxidant; prone to discoloration, needs protection from light and air.
- Avena Sativa Kernel Extract
- Antioxidant and soothing extract; mild abrasive properties, common in conditioning formulas
- Hydroxymethoxyphenyl Decanone
- Synthetic fragrance providing fresh sweet note; as an EU 26 listed allergen, evaluate mandatory labeling based on total fragrance load.
- Bisabolol
- Soothing and anti-inflammatory agent, 0.01–0.1%; low irritation, good for sensitive skin.
- Ceramide 3
- Ceramide 3 to restore skin barrier and moisturize; used at 0.01–1%, often blended
- Tremella Fuciformis Sporocarp Extract
- Tremella extract; strong humectant and antioxidant; water-soluble, suitable for anti-aging.
- Betaine
- Betaine for mild moisturizing/surfactant; low concentration 1-2% common, high may irritate.
- Tocopheryl Acetate
- Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light
- Caprylyl Glycol
- Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol
- C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate
- C12-15 alkyl benzoate; emollient, emulsifier, and antistatic; aids stability and smoothness, moderate low comedogenicity.
- Cetyl Palmitate
- Waxy ester increasing viscosity and providing heavy feel; used as emulsifier carrier, low comedogenicity, strong occlusion.
- Polysorbate 20
- Non-ionic emulsifier and cleansing surfactant; contains PEG, control microbial load.
- Disodium EDTA
- Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy
- Ethylhexylglycerin
- Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel
- Caprylhydroxamic Acid
- Chelating agent to stabilize metal ions; often paired with antioxidants for system stability, used at low levels
- Trideceth-6 Phosphate
- Non-ionic surfactant for solubilization and emulsification; low irritation, no public comedogenic data
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Polyisobutene
- Inert film former and occlusive; increases viscosity, slippery feel, used in lipsticks
- Sodium Hydroxide
- Strong base neutralizer for pH adjustment; handle with extreme care
