Ingredients explained

Water
Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
Mineral Oil
Occlusive emollient preventing water loss; must use high-purity medical grade to avoid impurities.
Ceramide 1
Not decoded yet
Ceramide 3
Ceramide 3 to restore skin barrier and moisturize; used at 0.01–1%, often blended
Ceramide 6-Ii
Not decoded yet
Hyaluronic Acid
High-water-binding humectant at 0.1-1%; high-MW for surface film, low-MW for dermal potential, check cationic compatibility.
Sodium Hydroxide
Strong base neutralizer for pH adjustment; handle with extreme care
Niacinamide
Niacinamide at 2–5%; improves texture, controls oil, brightens; high levels may cause sensitivity
Caprylyl Glycol
Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol
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
Phenoxyethanol
Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
Ethylhexylglycerin
Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel
Dimethicone
Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin
Ceteareth-20
Not decoded yet
Cetearyl Alcohol
Fatty alcohol emulsifier at 1-5%; non-ionic surfactant
Glyceryl Stearate
Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification
Peg-40 Stearate
Water-soluble emulsifier for O/W; mild cleansing, high levels may be comedogenic, caution for sensitive skin.
Xanthan Gum
Natural thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, pH-stable, requires full hydration
Sodium Polyacrylate
Superabsorbent resin, <1%; gels with electrolytes, ionic strength control required.

2 Hexanediol
Not decoded yet
Polyacrylamide
Film former and thickener for slip and feel; acrylamide monomer residue risk, strict QC required, restriction III/66
Disodium Edta
Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy
Isoparaffin
Not decoded yet
Laureth-7
Mild non-ionic surfactant for emulsification and solubilization; biodegradable
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.
Carbomer
Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility
Sodium Lauroyl Lactylate
Mild emulsifier at 1–5%; suitable for sensitive skin, mind cationic surfactant compatibility
