Ingredients explained

Aqua (Water

Primary solvent; requires preservatives at high concentration; adjust viscosity with thickeners

Eau)

Pure water, solvent and diluent; drinking water standard, no known allergens or irritation

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

Ceratonia Siliqua Gum

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

Urea

Potent humectant and keratolytic, >10% has exfoliating effect; stinging sensation at high levels, sensitive skin caution

Yeast Amino Acids

Yeast-derived soluble amino acid mix; potent humectant with small molecules for easy penetration, good for dry/damaged skin.

Trehalose

Trehalose; mild humectant and stabilizer for proteins/actives; hygroscopic, light skin feel.

Inositol

Humectant at 0.5–2%; gentle moisturizing, suitable for sensitive skin

Taurine

Taurine; buffering and chelating. Common in shampoos and eye washes, water-soluble.

Betaine

Betaine for mild moisturizing/surfactant; low concentration 1-2% common, high may irritate.

Caffeine

Active ingredient, 0.1–2%; promotes circulation, irritation risk at high concentration.

Chondrus Crispus Powder

Seaweed powder for gentle physical exfoliation; absorbs water; for scrubs and care, no chemical irritation.

Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate

Galactomyces ferment filtrate humectant; complex matrix, assess allergens and stability.

Aureobasidium Pullulans Ferment

Microbial fermentation filtrate for conditioning; check pH and microbial limits.

Ricinus Communis Seed Oil

Castor oil for heavy moisturization and film formation; high viscosity, high levels may be comedogenic, blend with other oils.

Hydrolyzed Collagen

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

Allantoin

Skin soother at 0.5-2%; promotes cell regeneration

Lavandula Angustifolia Flower Extract

Lavender extract for fragrance and toning; contains linalool, potential allergen.

Monarda Didyma Leaf Extract

Bee balm leaf extract with menthol; cooling effect, high concentration may irritate sensitive skin

Mentha Piperita Leaf Extract

Mint extract for cooling sensation; contains menthol, mild irritation potential.

Freesia Alba Flower Extract

Not decoded yet

Rosmarinus Officinalis Leaf Extract

Plant extract containing rosmarinic acid etc., with antioxidant and antimicrobial properties; may contain allergenic fragrances, patch test for sensitive skin, typical concentration <1%.

Chamomilla Recutita Flower Extract

Plant extract, soothing properties; contains natural allergens, high levels may irritate.

PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil

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

Centella Asiatica Extract

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

Mica

Mineral colorant for pearlescence; heavy metal screening required

Titanium Dioxide

Physical UV filter and colorant up to 25%; nano form requires attention

Snail Secretion Filtrate

Snail secretion filtrate with moisturizing and repairing peptides; animal-derived, monitor purity and allergy risk

Sodium Hyaluronate

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

Acetyl Glucosamine

Glycosaminoglycan precursor supporting skin hydration and elasticity; highly biocompatible.

Cyamopsis Tetragonoloba Gum

Guar gum, natural thickener/stabiliser at 0.5–2%; biodegradable, dry film may feel astringent

Portulaca Oleracea Extract

Achyronica extract with anti-inflammatory properties; monitor for heavy metals and pesticides, low-risk at typical doses

Methylparaben

Preservative, narrow spectrum; often combined, check allergen risk and regulatory limits.

Chlorphenesin

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

Phenoxyethanol

Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin

Calcium Chloride

Cross-linker and viscosity controller for gels; astringent at high levels, check skin tolerance

Ultramarines

Inorganic colorant for blue/purple shades; contains trace selenates, requires compliance with heavy metal limits.

Adenosine

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

Disodium EDTA

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