Ingredients explained

Avene Thermal Spring Water

Avene Thermal Spring Water; contains trace minerals and silica; used as a solvent or aqueous base with soothing properties.

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

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

Isododecane

Synthetic hydrocarbon solvent providing dry, silky skin feel; high volatility, non-comedogenic, common in sunscreens and foundations, usage 5-30%.

Dimethicone

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

Glycerin

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

Pentylene Glycol

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

Propylene Glycol

Polyol humectant at 3-10%; hygroscopic, slight tackiness, mild irritation at high conc., verify preservative efficacy, no allergen.

Water

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

Squalane

Emollient from plants or synthetic; light texture

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.

Hexylresorcinol

Tyrosinase inhibitor for whitening; typical range 0.1-1.5%, potential irritation at high levels, control pH.

1,2-Hexanediol

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

Algin

Seaweed-derived thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, mind calcium ion compatibility

Arachidyl Alcohol

Waxy emulsion stabilizer and thickener, often paired with cetearyl alcohol; heavy feel, good for creams

Arachidyl Glucoside

Mild non-ionic emulsifier and emollient, PEG-free; co-soluble with stearoyl lactylates

Behenyl Alcohol

Fat alcohol emulsifier/thickener at 1-3%; low comedogenic risk, check solubility in strong acid/base systems, add antioxidants.

Benzoic Acid

Preservative and pH adjuster at 0.1–0.5%; low water solubility, best in acidic media, irritant at high levels.

BHT

Lipophilic antioxidant at 0.01-0.05%; ineffective with acidic systems, label-sensitive, check regulatory limits as preservative alternative.

Caprylyl Glycol

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

Carbomer

Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility

Dimethicone Crosspolymer

Crosslinked silicone polymer providing silkiness and viscosity control; for hair and skin; inert but hard to biodegrade.

Dimethiconol

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

Fragrance

Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components

Hydrogenated Polyisobutene

Hydrogenated polyisobutene; petroleum-derived lubricant forming breathable film; high purity, low irritation/comedogenicity.

Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer

High-molecular-weight thickener and emulsion stabilizer; requires electrolytes or acid adjustment near isoelectric point for optimal performance.

Papain

Protease for mild exfoliation; concentration must be controlled to avoid irritation.

PEG-7 Trimethylolpropane Coconut Ether

PEG-containing non-ionic surfactant for emulsification and cleansing; monitor PEG contamination and sensitive skin compatibility.

Red 33

FD&C Red 33 synthetic dye; verify metal impurities; monitor sensitive users.

Retinal

Potent vitamin A aldehyde for cell turnover; low effective range 0.01-0.05%, unstable, avoid for pregnant users.

Sodium Hydroxide

Strong base neutralizer for pH adjustment; handle with extreme care

Sorbitan Isostearate

Non-ionic emulsifier (low HLB); typically used in blends, low comedogenicity, soft skin feel.

Stearyl Alcohol

Stearic alcohol; fatty alcohol for emulsion thickening/structure, often blended with soaps, moderate comedogenicity.

Titanium Dioxide

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

Xanthan Gum

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