Ingredients explained

Petrolatum
Mineral oil occlusive and antistatic; requires full refining history to ensure absence of potential carcinogens.
Mineral Oil
Occlusive emollient preventing water loss; must use high-purity medical grade to avoid impurities.
Paraffin
Paraffin wax for occlusion/viscosity control; inert/safe, may affect breathability
Ozokerite
Mineral ozokerite for viscosity and stabilization; derived from mineral oil, highly comedogenic, avoid facial use.
Water
Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
Dimethicone
Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin
Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid
Low-MW humectant with superior penetration vs high-MW; 0.1-0.5% typical, hygroscopic, store dry to prevent clumping.
Sodium Hydroxide
Strong base neutralizer for pH adjustment; handle with extreme care
Ceramide NP
Ceramide N3 for barrier repair; lipophilic, needs oil phase or emulsion, avoid high standalone use.
Ceramide AP
Ceramide analog for barrier repair; best results when combined with cholesterol and free fatty acids
Ceramide EOP
Ceramide EOP, repairs skin barrier lipids; often blended with cholesterol and fatty acids.
Tocopheryl Acetate
Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light
Phytosphingosine
Phytosphingosine barrier repair ingredient, 0.1–1%; water-soluble, good for dry skin.
Cholesterol
Cholesterol; barrier repair lipid mimicking stratum corneum; often blended with ceramides, plant or fermentation source.
Sodium Lauroyl Lactylate
Mild emulsifier at 1–5%; suitable for sensitive skin, mind cationic surfactant compatibility
Carbomer
Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility
Panthenol
Panthenol (vitamin B5) at 1–5%; moisturizing and reparative, supports barrier recovery
L-Proline
L-Proline amino acid; gentle humectant at 0.1–1%, suitable for sensitive skin
Xanthan Gum
Natural thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, pH-stable, requires full hydration
