Ingredients explained

Water

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

Propanediol

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

Glycerin

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

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

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

Butylene Glycol

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

Cetyl Ethylhexanoate

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

Phenyl Trimethicone

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

1,2-Hexanediol

Polyol solvent and preservative booster at 1–5%; light feel, can replace some traditional preservatives

Polysorbate 60

Non-ionic emulsifier and solubilizer for O/W or W/O stability; may cause mild stinging on sensitive skin, typically 1-5%.

Arginine

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

Carbomer

Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility

Hydroxyethyl Urea

Potent humectant and conditioner; high penetration, used for skin hydration and hair care

Hydroxyacetophenone

Hydroxyacetophenone as antioxidant; often boosts Vitamin C, works in acidic pH.

Coptis Japonica Root Extract

Coptis root; contains berberine for antibacterial effects, high doses may sensitize, check stability.

Ethylhexylglycerin

Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel

Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil

Common in dry/damaged hair; superior penetration vs mineral oils, low comedogenic risk, poor oxidative stability.

Panthenol

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

Candida Bombicola/Glucose/Methyl Rapeseedate Ferment

Yeast ferment extract with polysaccharides; used for multifunctional effects, complex profile may sensitise.

Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil

Sunflower seed oil for emollient/occlusive; high linoleic acid, low comedogenicity.

Dipropylene Glycol

Solvent for essential oils; better humectancy than PEG

Sodium Hyaluronate

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

Hyaluronic Acid

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

Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid

Low-MW humectant with superior penetration vs high-MW; 0.1-0.5% typical, hygroscopic, store dry to prevent clumping.

Ceramide NP

Ceramide N3 for barrier repair; lipophilic, needs oil phase or emulsion, avoid high standalone use.

Hydrogenated Lecithin

Emulsifier from lecithin; stable, used in powder emulsions

Hydrolyzed Collagen

Hydrolyzed protein for film-forming and moisture; molecular weight limits penetration, check source for shellfish allergies

Pentylene Glycol

Polyol humectant at 1-3%; low irritancy, suitable for sensitive skin

Ethoxydiglycol

Ethoxydiglycol; high-perf solv/humectant; low irrit, EU limit 20%, watch total PEG load

Lecithin

Phospholipid emulsifier at 1-5%; biocompatible, moisturizing/antioxidant, prone to oxidation (add TBHQ), mild for sensitive skin.

Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer

Crosslinked high-MW HA; forms surface hydrogel for long-lasting hydration, minimal penetration, physical film-forming.

Acetyl Glutamine

Acetylated glutamine; barrier repair and soothing, suitable for acute or sensitive skin

Borago Officinalis Extract

Plant extract for skin care and soothing; high levels of crude extract may sensitize.

Corchorus Olitorius Leaf Extract

Botanical leaf conditioning extract; QC needed for batch variability

Daucus Carota Sativa Root Extract

Carrot root extract with carotenoids; skin conditioning, low photosensitivity, may stain.

Ilex Paraguariensis Leaf Extract

Yerba mate extract with saponins and caffeine; refreshing and antioxidant, watch for sensitization.

Madecassoside

Triterpenoid glycoside with soothing, repairing, and antioxidant effects; typical concentration 0.1-1%, suitable for sensitive or compromised skin, good stability.

Pantothenic Acid

B5 for antistatic, hair care, and skin barrier; water-soluble, keep light-protected.

Decyl Glucoside

Mild alkyl glucoside, biodegradable; foam stabilizer, thickens with fatty alcohols, low allergenicity.

Asiaticoside

Plant glycoside, healing and antioxidant; poor solubility, use low levels with solubilizers.

Bacillus/Soybean Ferment Extract

Ferment filtrate with peptides; moisturizing and conditioning, low molecular weight for absorption.

Asiatic Acid

Pro-healing active, 0.1–1%; stability affected by light, store protected from light.

Caprylyl Glycol

Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol

Madecassic Acid

Madecassoside hydrolysis product for barrier repair and anti-inflammatory action; mild, low typical usage

Polyglutamic Acid

Natural-derived polypeptide for hydration and skin conditioning; often used for long-lasting moisture

Xylose

Low-MW humectant and fragrance carrier; <5% typical, blends with polyols for texture.

Folic Acid

Folic acid, Vitamin B9, used for skin conditioning to support cellular metabolism

Centella Asiatica Extract

Centella asiatica extract for soothing/repair; low irritation, common in sensitive skin products.

Hexapeptide-11

Acetyl Hexapeptide-8

Acetyl hexapeptide-8; signal peptide, low concentration, used for firming and hydration, low irritancy.

Avena Sativa Peptide

Soothing/humectant peptide for skin and hair; good for sensitive formulas, often paired with oat extract.

Copper Tripeptide-1

Copper Tripeptide-1 (GHK-Cu) for repair/anti-aging at 0.01–0.1%; water-soluble, avoid chelators.

Palmitoyl Hexapeptide-12

Peptide for elasticity; use per vendor specs. No public irritancy or comedogenic data.

Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4

Signal peptide promoting collagen synthesis; effective at low concentration, needs penetration enhancers or encapsulation

Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7

Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 boosts collagen; use 0.1–1%, formulate with lipid carriers

Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1

Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 for repair; requires lipid carrier, unstable in aqueous phase

Tripeptide-1
