Ingredients explained

Water

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

Glycerin

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

Propanediol

Polyol solvent at 1–5%; light feel, aids solubilization, propylene glycol alternative

Bis-PEG-15 Methyl Ether Dimethicone

Dimethicone PEG ether, mild emulsifier; discontinue if silicone sensitive.

Dimethicone

Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin

Alcohol Denat

Denatured ethanol; solvent, penetration enhancer, and quick-dry agent; high % may compromise barrier in dry skin.

1,2-Hexanediol

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

Panthenol

Panthenol (vitamin B5) at 1–5%; moisturizing and reparative, supports barrier recovery

Lactobacillus/Soybean Ferment Extract

Ferment extract with amino acids and peptides for skin conditioning; monitor microbial stability and watch for allergens.

Trehalose

Trehalose; mild humectant and stabilizer for proteins/actives; hygroscopic, light skin feel.

Hydrogenated Lecithin

Emulsifier from lecithin; stable, used in powder emulsions

Dipropylene Glycol

Solvent for essential oils; better humectancy than PEG

Rhus Semialata Extract

Not decoded yet

Myrtus Communis Extract

Myrtus communis extract, mild astringent and antioxidant; used at low levels, stability requires validation.

Saccharomyces/Barley Seed Ferment Filtrate

Ferment filtrate with humectant and conditioning properties; contains microbial metabolites, check for allergens.

Saccharomyces/Potato Extract Ferment Filtrate

Ferment filtrate with humectants and metabolites; complex bioactivity, start low for sensitive skin.

Polysilicone-11

Not decoded yet

Eclipta Prostrata Extract

Eclipta prostrata extract used for antioxidant and hair coloring; water-soluble, low irritation and comedogenic risk at typical levels.

Hydrogenated Polydecene

Hydrogenated polydecene, light mineral oil alternative, low comedogenic; silky, non-greasy.

Polyacrylate-13

Not decoded yet

Polysorbate 20

Non-ionic emulsifier and cleansing surfactant; contains PEG, control microbial load.

Arginine

Arginine for moisturizing/conditioning; amino acid, high biocompatibility, often used in blends.

Fragrance

Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components

Butylene Glycol

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

Polymethylsilsesquioxane

Silicone polymer for emolliency, matte effect, and suspension; used in foundations or powder suspensions, typical usage 1-5%, smooth skin feel.

Carbomer

Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility

Polyisobutene

Inert film former and occlusive; increases viscosity, slippery feel, used in lipsticks

Allantoin

Skin soother at 0.5-2%; promotes cell regeneration

Carnitine

Carnitine, used in cleansers as foam booster and conditioner; water-soluble, mild.

Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltaurate/Beheneth-25 Methacrylate Crosspolymer

Strong anionic emulsifier for O/W emulsions; incompatible with cationic surfactants

Phytosteryl/Octyldodecyl Lauroyl Glutamate

Phytosterol blend for skin conditioning; gentle, barrier-repairing, low irritation.

Sorbitol

Polyol humectant with strong hygroscopy; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives; also a solvent or adjuster.

Cetyl Phosphate

Anionic emulsifier and thickener; often blended, high levels may sting sensitive skin

Adenosine

Skin conditioner at 0.1-1%; used for anti-aging and repair

PEG-14M

Water-soluble PEG surfactant/emulsifier at 1-3%; avoid with strong oxidizers

Theobroma Cacao Extract

Cacao extract providing antioxidants and conditioning, aids skin elasticity.

Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer

Crosspolymer for thickening/film; needs neutralization to pH 7-8 to hydrate, check ion strength.

Caprylyl Glycol

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

Decyl Glucoside

Mild alkyl glucoside, biodegradable; foam stabilizer, thickens with fatty alcohols, low allergenicity.

Phloretin

Not decoded yet

Thioctic Acid

Alpha-lipoic acid; potent antioxidant; poor water solubility, often used as ester derivatives
