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
Diisooctyl Succinate
Branched diisooctyl succinate ester; light, non-greasy emollient for lotions and sunscreen systems.
Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate
Lipophilic Vitamin C derivative, antioxidant and brightening; more stable than VC, oil-soluble, must pair with oil phase
Pentylene Glycol
Polyol humectant at 1-3%; low irritancy, suitable for sensitive skin
Polyglyceryl-2 Stearate
Polyglyceryl ester emulsifier; mild, non-ionic, suitable for O/W emulsions with good stability.
Carnosine
Dipeptide skin conditioner with antioxidant and buffering properties; used in synergy with other actives.
Ceramide NP
Ceramide N3 for barrier repair; lipophilic, needs oil phase or emulsion, avoid high standalone use.
Ceramide EOP
Ceramide EOP, repairs skin barrier lipids; often blended with cholesterol and fatty acids.
Ceramide AP
Ceramide analog for barrier repair; best results when combined with cholesterol and free fatty acids
Ceramide NG
Skin lipid repair ingredient to restore barrier; non-irritating, suitable for sensitive and compromised skin
Ceramide AS
Ceramides for barrier repair; used at low levels with other lipids; beneficial for dry, compromised skin.
Phytosterols
Plant sterol mix for skin barrier repair and soothing; plant-derived, no reported sensitization.
Glyceryl Stearate
Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification
Stearyl Alcohol
Stearic alcohol; fatty alcohol for emulsion thickening/structure, often blended with soaps, moderate comedogenicity.
Hydrogenated Lecithin
Emulsifier from lecithin; stable, used in powder emulsions
1,2-Hexanediol
Polyol solvent and preservative booster at 1–5%; light feel, can replace some traditional preservatives
Polyacrylate Crosspolymer-6
Water-soluble thickener; requires neutralizer, performs best at pH 5–7
Citric Acid
Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH
Caprylyl Glycol
Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol
