Ingredients explained

Water

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

Glycerin

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

Butylene Glycol

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

Xanthan Gum

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

Carrageenan

Natural thickener/gelling agent from red algae; high concentrations may cause discomfort for sensitive individuals.

Ceratonia Siliqua Gum

Locust bean gum thickener/emulsifier; viscous at high levels, check batch consistency.

PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil

Non-ionic emulsifier and solubilizer at 1–5%; contains PEG, check acid compatibility and sensitive skin irritation

1,2-Hexanediol

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

Allantoin

Skin soother at 0.5-2%; promotes cell regeneration

Camellia Sinensis Leaf Powder

Tea polyphenol powder; exfoliation and antioxidants, grind size dictates abrasion

Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Fruit Oil

Bergamot essential oil, natural fragrance and photosensitizer; limit daytime use or use FCF grade

Potassium Chloride

Viscosity modifier for gels and shampoos; high concentrations may cause local stinging.

Sucrose

Sucrose, water-soluble thickener and humectant; high levels prone to hygroscopy.

Pentylene Glycol

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

Chlorphenesin

Phenolic antimicrobial; strict EU limits apply, potential allergen, careful dosing required for leave-on products.

Propanediol

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

Pinus Sylvestris Leaf Extract

Scots pine leaf extract containing vitamin K; EU limit 0.1%, monitor cumulative exposure

Ethyl Hexanediol

Polyol solvent with humectant and mild preservative boost; low viscosity, compatible with many ingredients, gentle.

Cocos Nucifera Fruit Extract

Coconut fruit extract at 0.1–5%; moisturizing, caution for oily skin at high levels

Calcium Lactate

Calcium lactate as chelator/buffer/astringent with keratolytic support; check pH and compatibility to avoid local irritation.

Cellulose Gum

Cellulose gum, water-soluble thickener/stabilizer; may destabilize with cationics, hydrate first.

Gellan Gum

Gellan gum; water-soluble polymer; gel former; high transparency, strong gelling, for aqueous phase stability.

Sodium Polyacrylate

Superabsorbent resin, <1%; gels with electrolytes, ionic strength control required.

Disodium EDTA

Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy

Angelica Gigas Root Extract

Angelica gigas root extract; traditional care; coumarins present, note photosensitivity.

Cimicifuga Racemosa Root Extract

Black cohosh extract, antioxidant/conditioning, phytoestrogen-like; avoid in pregnancy

Glycyrrhiza Glabra Root Extract

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

Morus Alba Bark Extract

Mulberry bark extract for skin conditioning; niche ingredient, stability and safety data limited

Paeonia Lactiflora Root Extract

Paeon lactiflora root extract with paeoniflorin; 0.1–1%, skin conditioning; watch oxidizers.

Phellinus Linteus Extract

Phellinus linteus polysaccharide at 0.1–0.5% in water phase; boosts hydration, low allergenicity

Polygonum Multiflorum Root Extract

Antioxidant root extract; caution advised for long-term application

Scutellaria Baicalensis Root Extract

Scutellaria root extract with baicalin for antioxidant and soothing effects; also provides astringent and humectant properties.

Sesamum Indicum Seed Extract

Sesame seed extract rich in oils and sesamin; used for hair and skin conditioning with smoothing and soothing properties.

Sodium Hyaluronate

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

Sophora Angustifolia Root Extract

Sophora root extract; matrine-rich with antimicrobial and anti-itch effects, used for skin conditioning.

Saururus Chinensis Extract

Botanical extract used as a skin conditioning agent

Ethylhexylglycerin

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

Coptis Chinensis Root Extract

Antioxidant/soothing herb; low concentration usage, yellow color, high dose may be irritating

Chromium Oxide Greens

Green inorganic colorant for pigmentation; non-allergenic, used in color cosmetics
