Ingredients explained

Aqua/Water/Eau

Water as solvent/base; main ingredient, microbial control needed, paired with preservatives.

Glycerin

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

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

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

Propanediol

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

Cetearyl Alcohol

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

Betaine

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

Hydrogenated Coco-Glycerides

Hydrog coco glycerides; waxy emollient; low irrit, low-mid comed, occlusive option

Panthenol

Panthenol (vitamin B5) at 1–5%; moisturizing and reparative, supports barrier recovery

Glyceryl Stearate

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

PEG-100 Stearate

Non-ionic emulsifier, requires ionics for stability; check PEG for formaldehyde.

Pentylene Glycol

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

Butyrospermum Parkii Butter

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

Cetearyl Glucoside

Gentle non-ionic sugar-based emulsifier for low-irritation formulas; often co-blended

Albizia Julibrissin Bark Extract

Albizia bark extract; natural fragrance and conditioner, scent may need masking

Acacia Farnesiana Flower Wax

Natural wax for thickening and structure, provides shine and body, used in lipsticks and eyeshadows.

Caffeine

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

Steareth-21

Not decoded yet

Dimethicone

Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin

Carbomer

Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility

Chlorphenesin

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

Ethylhexylglycerin

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

Tocopheryl Acetate

Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light

Ci 77891/Titanium Dioxide

Inorganic physical sunscreen and white colorant; large particles and inert; may look chalky at high levels.

Synthetic Fluorphlogopite

Mica filler at 1-10%; luster/thickening, inert, verify mineral purity, no public comedogenic data.

Disodium EDTA

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

Escin

Horse chestnut extract for venous circulation and anti-inflammatory; caution near eyes; potential plant-based allergen

Parfum/Fragrance

Blended fragrance for odor; contains 26 restricted allergens, use caution in sensitive/child/eye products, verify compliance.

Butylene Glycol

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

Dimethiconol

Dimethiconol; silicone emollient providing silky feel and reducing friction; moderate comedogenicity, avoid excess.

Sodium Hydroxide

Strong base neutralizer for pH adjustment; handle with extreme care

Alcohol

Ethanol for solubility/drying at 5-15%; high conc. is drying/irritating, avoid lip/eye, low residue, balance with humectants.

Harungana Madagascariensis Extract

Madagascar Harungana extract for skin conditioning; low usage, watch allergen potential

Olea Europaea Fruit Extract

Olea europaea fruit extract rich in polyphenols for antioxidant and conditioning use; add preservative/antioxidant against oxidation.

Paullinia Cupana Seed Extract

Not decoded yet

Sodium Benzoate

Preservative booster, effective below pH 4.5; combinable with sorbates

Tin Oxide

Inorganic mineral pigment providing opacity and suspension; requires skin safety assessment, typically used in sunscreens or powder colorants.

Acetyl Tetrapeptide-2

Matrixyl; stimulates ECM synthesis for firming/repair, requires adequate dosage.

Dextran

Polysaccharide for binding; water-soluble requires preservation.
