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
- DPG
- Diethylenglycol butyl ether; humectant and solvent; potential allergen, test on sensitive skin.
- Hydrogenated Polyisobutene
- Hydrogenated polyisobutene; petroleum-derived lubricant forming breathable film; high purity, low irritation/comedogenicity.
- PEG-75
- Not decoded yet
- Cyclopentasiloxane
- Cyclopentasiloxane for emollient/solvent; volatile silicone, smooth feel, check VOC regulations.
- Ethylhexyl Palmitate
- Synthetic ester emollient with light skin feel; small molecule, slightly comedogenic, use cautiously for acne-prone skin, often blended with other oils.
- Beeswax
- Beeswax, natural thickener and film former; provides occlusive moisturization, natural honey scent, animal-derived, potential allergen
- Behenyl Alcohol
- Fat alcohol emulsifier/thickener at 1-3%; low comedogenic risk, check solubility in strong acid/base systems, add antioxidants.
- Glyceryl Stearate
- Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification
- PEG-75 Stearate
- PEG-75 stearate, non-ionic emulsifier/thickener; PEG-based, check for 1,4-dioxane limits, not used in some markets.
- Polysorbate 80
- Non-ionic emulsifier and solubilizer; watch for interaction with parabens
- Polyquaternium-51
- Not decoded yet
- Brown Algae Extract
- General brown algae extract providing minerals and polysaccharides; efficacy varies by species and extraction.
- Chlorella Extract
- Not decoded yet
- Red Algae Extract
- Not decoded yet
- Glycosyl Trehalose
- Glycosylated trehalose to enhance skin tolerance and moisture retention; acts as a film former.
- Hydrolyzed Hydrogenated Starch
- Not decoded yet
- Allantoin
- Skin soother at 0.5-2%; promotes cell regeneration
- BG
- Butylene glycol; humectant and solvent. Low irritancy, common in water-in-oil and oil-in-water formulas.
- Pg
- Propylene glycol, common solvent/humectant; stinging at >5% in some users, comedogenicity 3/5
- Carbomer
- Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility
- Xanthan Gum
- Natural thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, pH-stable, requires full hydration
- Arginine
- Arginine for moisturizing/conditioning; amino acid, high biocompatibility, often used in blends.
- 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.
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Methyl Paraben
- Effective water-soluble preservative; generally safe at low concentrations, may cause sensitivity in susceptible individuals.
- Methyl Paraben
- Effective water-soluble preservative; generally safe at low concentrations, may cause sensitivity in susceptible individuals.
- Propylparaben
- Medium-chain preservative; restricted use, pH-sensitive efficacy.
- Butylparaben
- Butylparaben preservative; low concentrations; potential endocrine concerns, regulatory limits apply.
- Perfume
- Perfume/Fragrance blend. Opaque composition, a leading cause of contact dermatitis. Must list specific EU 26 allergens if present. Patch test required.
