Ingredients explained

Aqua

Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical

Decyl Oleate

Decyl oleate, light ester emollient and solubilizer; refreshing feel, low comedogenicity, suitable for most skin types.

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

Light occlusive and solvent at 1–10%; non-greasy feel, suitable for oily and combination skin

Glyceryl Stearate SE

Emulsifier at 1–3%; oil-phase ingredient, easy emulsification, low sensitization.

Glyceryl Stearate

Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification

Glycerin

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

Anthemis Nobilis Flower Water*

Chamomile flower water for soothing and skin conditioning; plant-derived ingredient, monitor botanical source and microbial contamination risks.

Prunus Armeniaca Kernel Oil*

Almond oil; basic emollient lipid rich in unsaturated fatty acids; moderate occlusivity, potential mild allergen risk.

Cetearyl Alcohol

Fatty alcohol emulsifier at 1-5%; non-ionic surfactant

Butyrospermum Parkii Butter*

Shea butter providing occlusive moisture; standard comedogenic rating is 2, watch for clogging risk in combination formulas.

Sodium PCA

Sodium PCA, NMF component, 1-10% humectant; salty/tacky at high levels.

Oleic/Linoleic/Linolenic Polyglycerides

Fatty acid polyglycerides, emulsifier and thickener; non-ionic surfactant, low comedogenicity, suitable for sensitive skin.

Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice Powder*

Aloe leaf juice powder for polymeric moisture and soothing; dry powder requiring rehydration, generally low irritation.

Rosa Damascena Flower Extract*

Rose water/extract; aromatic and soothing; <1%; dilute essential oils, test on sensitive skin.

Cetyl Palmitate

Waxy ester increasing viscosity and providing heavy feel; used as emulsifier carrier, low comedogenicity, strong occlusion.

Cocoglycerides

Coco-glycerides act as emulsifiers and skin conditioning agents; gentle, often used in soap-free formulations.

Xanthan Gum

Natural thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, pH-stable, requires full hydration

Bisabolol*

Bisabolol extracted from German chamomile; soothes and conditions skin at 0.1-0.5%, low allergy risk.

Parfum

Fragrance for scent; may contain allergens, caution for sensitive skin, full labeling required.

Glycine Soja Oil

Soybean oil emollient; prone to oxidation, needs antioxidants; suitable for dry skin

Tocopherol

Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light

Benzyl Alcohol

Mild preservative/solvent at 0.5-1.0%; EU allergen (labeling required), irritation risk if concentrated, avoid in infant/highly sensitive skin.

Citric Acid

Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH

Dehydroacetic Acid

Broad-spectrum preservative for acidic and oil-based systems; has concentration limits, requires challenge testing.

Linalool

Natural fragrance component at ≤0.05%; one of EU 26 allergens, caution for sensitive skin

Limonene

Natural fragrance solvent, EU allergen; poor photostability

Benzyl Salicylate

UV absorber/light stabilizer, restricted in EU; potential sensitizer, risk assessment needed.

Citronellol
