Ingredients explained

Aqua

Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical

Glycerin

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

Dimethicone

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

Niacinamide

Niacinamide at 2–5%; improves texture, controls oil, brightens; high levels may cause sensitivity

Cetyl Ethylhexanoate

Synthetic oil providing slip; large molecule, low penetration, non-comedogenic, suitable for dry or rough skin.

Sodium Hyaluronate

Potent humectant at 0.1–2%; different MW for penetration depth, high levels may draw moisture

Panthenol

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

Pearl Extract

Animal-derived extract with antioxidant function; contains chitin, caution for shellfish allergies, verify heavy metals.

Salmon Egg Extract

Salmon egg extract; prohibited in EU cosmetics due to CMR animal material restrictions.

Honey Extract

Humectant and skin conditioning agent; hygroscopic, sensitive to pH.

Prunus Persica Fruit Extract

Peach fruit extract with fruit acids and fibers; used as mild physical exfoliant and moisturizer

Imperata Cylindrica Root Extract

Imperata root extract; traditional TCM ingredient for skin conditioning. No public data on irritancy or comedogenicity.

Prunus Serrulata Flower Extract

Cherry blossom extract, 0.1-1% typical; low-irritation, patch-test for pollen/plant-allergy prone skin

Adenosine

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

Cetearyl Olivate

Natural emulsifier pairing with glucosides; skin-like feel, biodegradable, prone to oxidation requiring light protection

Sorbitan Olivate

O/W emulsifier, HLB ~15, requires ionic co-surfactant, potential sensitizer.

Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer

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

Arginine

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

Polyacrylate-13

Polyisobutene

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

Polysorbate 20

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