Ingredients explained

Aqua

Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical

Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil

Jojoba oil rich in unsaturated fats; good penetration, non-comedogenic, prone to oxidation requiring antioxidants

Propylheptyl Caprylate

Light ester for smooth, non-volatile feel; non-comedogenic and low irritation

Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil

Sunflower seed oil for emollient/occlusive; high linoleic acid, low comedogenicity.

Cetearyl Alcohol

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

Neopentyl Glycol Dicaprylate/Dicaprate

Light emollient ester for fast spreadability and a light feel.

Arachidýl Alcohol

Not decoded yet

Methylpropanediol

Diol solvent and extraction carrier; enhances solubility of actives, low irritation profile.

Dimethicone

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

Ethylene/Acrylic Acid Copolymer

Water-soluble film former for matte feel; often used in emulsion form

Tocopheryl Acetate

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

Rosmarinus Officinalis Extract

Rosemary extract; antimicrobial; photo-toxic and allergen risks.

Hydrolyzed Hibiscus Esculentus Extract

Hydrolyzed mucilage proteins acting as a gentle skin conditioner and humectant.

Centella Asiatica Extract

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

Palmitoyl Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein

Modified wheat protein; cationic, improves slip and repair; contains wheat allergen; avoid for wheat allergy

Sodium Hyaluronate

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

Acetyl Hexapeptide-8

Acetyl hexapeptide-8; signal peptide, low concentration, used for firming and hydration, low irritancy.

Squalane

Emollient from plants or synthetic; light texture

Arginine

Arginine for moisturizing/conditioning; amino acid, high biocompatibility, often used in blends.

Arachidyl Glucoside

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

Cetearyl Glucoside

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

Caprylyl Glycol

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

Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer

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

Behenyl Alcohol

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

Polysorbate 60

Non-ionic emulsifier and solubilizer for O/W or W/O stability; may cause mild stinging on sensitive skin, typically 1-5%.

Phenylpropanol

Phenylpropanol for fragrance and solvent; allergen risk, requires assessment

Chlorphenesin

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

Disodium EDTA

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

Dextrin

Polymer thickener and binder from starch fermentation; biodegradable, hygroscopic, may affect powder flow

Parfum

Fragrance for scent; may contain allergens, caution for sensitive skin, full labeling required.

Benzyl Salicylate

UV absorber/light stabilizer, restricted in EU; potential sensitizer, risk assessment needed.

Citronellol

Citronellol for fragrance; EU 26 allergen, labeling required above 0.001%.

D-Limonene

Citrus terpene used as fragrance and skin conditioner; EU allergen, may cause sensitization at high levels, must be labeled.

Geraniol

Geraniol for fragrance; EU 26 allergen, labeling required above 0.001%.

Hexyl Cinnamal

Common fragrance component (jasmine/vanilla note); listed EU allergen, requires labeling at >10ppm (leave-on).

Hydroxycitronellal

Hydroxycitronellal, sensitizing fragrance, EU limit <0.1%; avoid use as aerosol propellant.

Hydroxyisohexyl 3-Cyclohexene Carboxaldehyde

Prohibited in EU cosmetics; restricted due to irritation risks.

Butylphenyl Methylpropional

Synthetic fragrance with floral notes; EU regulations limit usage, strict monitoring required.

Linalool

Natural fragrance component at ≤0.05%; one of EU 26 allergens, caution for sensitive skin

Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone

Vanilla-like fragrance ingredient; one of EU 26 allergens, caution advised for sensitive skin.
