Ingredients explained

Octyldodecanol

Light emollient/emulsifier at 1-5%; low comedogenic, non-greasy feel, broadly compatible, sensitive-skin friendly.

Butylene Glycol Dicaprylate/Dicaprate

Light diester emollient, light and non-greasy; often used as solvent; oxidizes easily, needs antioxidants.

Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate

UVA absorber used with other filters; poor water stability and photolability, requires light stabilizers, max concentration typically 10%.

Dibutyl Ethylhexanoyl Glutamide

Amide-based conditioning agent for hair luster; synthetic surfactant

Dibutyl Lauroyl Glutamide

Butyl lauroyl glutamide; film-forming agent for hair and skin conditioning, common in haircare.

Diisostearyl Malate

Diisostearyl malate; lightweight emollient and emulsifier; non-greasy feel, biodegradable, used in premium systems.

Ethylhexyl Salicylate

Ethylhexyl salicylate, UVB absorber; volatile, requires combination with UVA filters for broad spectrum.

Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate

Novel UVB absorber at 0.2-1.5%; narrow band, requires combination, high photostability, verify regional limits, low irritation.

Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine

UV-B absorber, photostable; high purity and low bioaccumulation, check for impurities.

Dextrin Palmitate

Modified polysaccharide ester for emulsifying and anticaking; mild cleanser; used in solid soaps or powders.

Octocrylene

UV-B absorber and photostabilizer; has concentration limits, consider potential coral toxicity and allergenicity for specific groups.

Glycyrrhiza Glabra Root Extract

Liquorice root extract for soothing and brightening; batch variability, watch polyphenol interactions

Butyrospermum Parkii Butter

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

Cocos Nucifera Oil

Occlusive moisturizing oil at 1–10%; highly comedogenic, use with caution for oily skin.

Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis Oil

Sweet almond oil, light emollient; suitable for sensitive skin, caution for nut allergies.

Raspberry Seed Oil/Tocopheryl Succinate Aminopropanediol Esters

Raspberry seed oil with tocopherol succinate ester; combined emollient and antioxidant, 1–3%.

Vanilla Tahitensis Fruit Extract

Vanilla fruit extract providing aroma and humectancy; botanically derived

Centella Asiatica Extract

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

Leontopodium Alpinum Flower/Leaf Extract

Alpine edelweiss flower/leaf extract for skin conditioning; often in soothing claims.

Hydrolyzed Collagen

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

Lactobacillus Soybean Extract Ferment Filtrate

Not decoded yet

Eucalyptus Globulus Leaf Extract

Extract with cooling scent and conditioning; contains essential oil, potential allergen, control dose

Glycerin

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

Adenosine

Skin conditioner at 0.1-1%; used for anti-aging and repair

Water

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

Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid

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

Butylene Glycol

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

Dipropylene Glycol

Solvent for essential oils; better humectancy than PEG

1,2-Hexanediol

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

Fragrance

Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components
