Ingredients explained

Water

Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth

Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract

Aloe vera leaf extract for soothing and humectant; monitor polysaccharide level and endotoxins

Tridecyl Stearate

Tridecyl stearate emollient; lightweight, moderate comedogenic

Neopentyl Glycol Dicaprylate/Dicaprate

Light emollient ester for fast spreadability and a light feel.

Tridecyl Trimellitate

Ester emollient for skin conditioning; lipophilic nature may increase comedogenicity for acne-prone skin.

Stearic Acid

Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel

Propanediol

Polyol solvent at 1–5%; light feel, aids solubilization, propylene glycol alternative

Palmitic Acid

Palmitic acid for emulsification/emollient; solid fat, high melting point, occlusive.

Glyceryl Stearate SE

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

Phenyl Trimethicone

Aromatic modified silicone for high gloss and occlusion; inert, non-volatile, may leave surface residue

Hyaluronic Acid

High-water-binding humectant at 0.1-1%; high-MW for surface film, low-MW for dermal potential, check cationic compatibility.

Butyrospermum Parkii Butter

Shea butter for occlusive moisturizing; high melt point, rich texture, caution for oily skin.

Glycerin

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

Betaine

Betaine for mild moisturizing/surfactant; low concentration 1-2% common, high may irritate.

Tremella Fuciformis Sporocarp Extract

Tremella extract; strong humectant and antioxidant; water-soluble, suitable for anti-aging.

Camellia Sinensis Extract

Green tea extract, polyphenols, antioxidant, soothing, low comedogenic.

Aspalathus Linearis Extract

Rooibos tea extract with high antioxidant capacity; soothing, no known irritation

Boswellia Serrata Extract

Anti-inflammatory and soothing extract, 0.1–0.5%; contains boswellic acids, check compatibility with fragrances

Honey Extract

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

Tetrapeptide-14

Not decoded yet

Tropaeolum Majus Flower/Leaf/Stem Extract

Tropaeolum majus extract rich in flavonoids for skin conditioning and soothing; monitor concentration for plant sensitivities

Retinyl Palmitate

Vitamin A ester for skin conditioning; light-sensitive, requires protection, avoid in pregnancy.

Ascorbyl Palmitate

Ascorbyl palmitate, lipophilic Vit C ester, antioxidant; oxidizes, needs light/air protection.

Tocopheryl Acetate

Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light

Polyacrylamide

Film former and thickener for slip and feel; acrylamide monomer residue risk, strict QC required, restriction III/66

Leuconostoc/Radish Root Ferment Filtrate

Bio-fermented filtrate for antimicrobial and anti-dandruff effects; assess individual variability, avoid in known allergy.

Phospholipids

Biomimetic repair and emollient, mimics skin lipids; typically processed at low temps, may be sticky at high levels

Beeswax

Beeswax, natural thickener and film former; provides occlusive moisturization, natural honey scent, animal-derived, potential allergen

Ceteareth-20

Not decoded yet

Laureth-7

Mild non-ionic surfactant for emulsification and solubilization; biodegradable

Citric Acid

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

Trisodium Ethylenediamine Disuccinate

Mild chelator replacing EDTA; water-soluble, very low irritation, stabilizes metal ions

Cetyl Palmitate

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

C13-14 Isoparaffin

Light hydrocarbon solvent providing emolliency and solubility; non-allergenic, note occlusive nature

Butylene Glycol

Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel

Aminomethyl Propanol

pH buffer at 0.1–1%; irritating at high levels, avoid direct mixing with strong acids/bases

Lonicera Caprifolium Flower Extract

Honeysuckle extract for soothing and antioxidants; trace use, low allergenic risk
