Highlights

Free of alcoholFree of parabensFree of siliconesFree of sulfatesFree of formaldehyde releasersContains mineral oilContains essential oilsContains animal-derivedContains EU-26 allergensContains fragrance

Formulation view Multi-botanical complex with hyaluronic acid and ascorbate derivatives for antioxidant hydration and rice protein for barrier support. Polyols and light oils balance texture and nourishment. Best for dry to normal skin seeking anti-aging. Formulator's note: botanical compatibility assessment is essential; ascorbate efficacy peaks in acidic pH, requiring precise control.

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

Diethylhexyl Carbonate

Light emollient for silky texture; non-comedogenic, suits most skin types.

Isopentyldiol

Solvent at 1–10%; helps dissolve actives, fresh feel

C13-15 Alkane

Mineral oil derivative as solvent and spreader; low irritation and allergen, ensure high purity free of carcinogens

Pentylene Glycol

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

Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil

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

Isomalt

Isomalt humectant; tacky at high levels, non-comedogenic, suitable for sugar-free formulas.

Hydroxyacetophenone

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

Olea Europaea Fruit Unsaponifiables

Not decoded yet

Sodium Stearoyl Glutamate

Mild amino-acid surfactant, poor solubility, pairs with fatty alcohols, fine foam.

Caprylyl Glycol

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

Cetearyl Alcohol

Fatty alcohol emulsifier at 1-5%; non-ionic surfactant

Glyceryl Stearate

Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification

Potassium Olivoyl Hydrolyzed Oat Protein

Not decoded yet

Lysolecithin

Lecithin derivative emulsifier used for stabilization in O/W systems; no public irritancy or comedogenic data.

Sclerotium Gum

Non-ionic gum for gels; neutral pH, requires dissolution via heating or fine milling

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

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

Gossypium Hirsutum Extract

Not decoded yet

Squalane

Emollient from plants or synthetic; light texture

Butyrospermum Parkii Butter

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

1,2-Hexanediol

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

Phenylpropanol

Root extract for scent and toning; may irritate compromised skin.

Pullulan

Microbial polysaccharide for film forming and thickening; water-soluble film former used in capsules or moisturizing films.

Xanthan Gum

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

Glyceryl Oleate

Glyceride-based emulsifier and emolient with mild perfuming properties.

Sodium Hyaluronate

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

Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate

Lipophilic Vitamin C derivative, antioxidant and brightening; more stable than VC, oil-soluble, must pair with oil phase

Solanum Lycopersicum Fruit Extract

Tomato extract; antioxidant and conditioner. Contains carotenoids; moderate photostability. Watch for color variance.
