Ingredients explained
- Water
- Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
- Sodium Lauroamphoacetate
- Amphoteric surfactant for gentle cleansing; rich foam, low irritation to eyes and skin.
- Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate
- Mild cleanser with rich lather and low irritation; hygroscopic, requires moisture-resistant packaging
- Sodium Methyl Cocoyl Taurate
- Amino acid based mild surfactant, soft lather; cleaning power increases with salt but may dry out.
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Echinacea Purpurea Extract
- Echinacea herb extract for moisturizing/conditioning; contains chlorogenic acids; check plant origin.
- Swertia Chirata Leaf Extract
- Not decoded yet
- Citrus Grandis Peel Oil
- Grapefruit peel oil for fragrance; EU restricted, sensitizing properties, used as fragrance.
- Litsea Cubeba Oil
- Essential oil rich in limonene, sensitizing and potentially photosensitizing, usage restricted in EU, strict concentration control needed.
- Copper Lysinate/Prolinate
- Copper amino acid chelate; claims collagen support, use at 0.01–0.05%, may discolor
- Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate
- Dipotassium glycyrrhizinate for moisturizing/soothing; inhibits 5-LOX, water-soluble, for sensitive skin.
- Hydrogenated Coconut Acid
- Hydrogenated saturated fatty acid for emulsification and skin conditioning; coconut-derived, low irritancy.
- Glycol Distearate
- Glycol distearate for thickening and emulsification; non-ionic, improves viscosity
- Pentylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant at 1-3%; low irritancy, suitable for sensitive skin
- Stearyl Citrate
- Stearoyl citrate ester; mild emollient, non-ionic, suits dry skin.
- Lauryl Glucoside
- Mild nonionic surfactant for cleansing; 1-5%, suitable for sensitive skin
- Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer
- Crosspolymer for thickening/film; needs neutralization to pH 7-8 to hydrate, check ion strength.
- Sodium Isethionate
- Mild surfactant with low foam but good cleaning; ideal for sensitive-skin cleansers.
- Trisodium Ethylenediamine Disuccinate
- Mild chelator replacing EDTA; water-soluble, very low irritation, stabilizes metal ions
- Methylglucoside Phosphate
- Modified sugar-based surfactant acting as mild conditioning agent; performance affected by hard water, use with chelating agents.
- Citric Acid
- Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH
- Sodium Hydroxide
- Strong base neutralizer for pH adjustment; handle with extreme care
- Isopropyl Palmitate
- Isopropyl palmitate for dry touch; prone to oxidation, needs antioxidants, low viscosity
- Lecithin
- Phospholipid emulsifier at 1-5%; biocompatible, moisturizing/antioxidant, prone to oxidation (add TBHQ), mild for sensitive skin.
- Chlorphenesin
- Phenolic antimicrobial; strict EU limits apply, potential allergen, careful dosing required for leave-on products.
- Caprylyl Glycol
- Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
