Ingredients explained
- Aqua (Water
- Not decoded yet
- Eau)
- Not decoded yet
- Cocamidopropyl Betaine
- Cocamidopropyl betaine; zwitterionic co-surfactant reducing irritation and boosting foam, common in mild cleansers.
- Sodium Methyl Cocoyl Taurate
- Amino acid based mild surfactant, soft lather; cleaning power increases with salt but may dry out.
- Cocoglucoside
- Not decoded yet
- Sodium Chloride
- Salt for gel viscosity control; used as precipitant in soaps
- Sodium Methyl 2-Sulfolaurate
- Anionic surfactant for cleansing/foaming; can be irritating at high levels, blend with milder agents
- PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate
- PEG-modified nonionic surfactant for emulsification and cleansing; contains PEG, monitor dioxane, low comedogenicity.
- Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside
- Caprylyl/capryl glucoside, mild sugar surfactant; low irritation, moderate cleansing
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Citric Acid
- Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH
- Eriophorum Spissum Flower/Stem Extract
- Botanical extract for skin conditioning; low inclusion, requires preservation
- Moringa Oleifera Seed Extract
- Moringa seed extract rich in antioxidants for skin conditioning; natural extract, watch batch consistency
- Sodium Benzoate
- Preservative booster, effective below pH 4.5; combinable with sorbates
- Disodium 2-Sulfolaurate
- Anionic surfactant for cleansing/foaming; may sensitize, caution for sensitive skin
- Parfum
- Fragrance for scent; may contain allergens, caution for sensitive skin, full labeling required.
- PEG-120 Methyl Glucose Dioleate
- PEG-modified emulsifier; mild, low-foam. For O/W and anhydrous systems, check compatibility and viscosity.
- Coconut Acid
- Lauric acid for cleansing and emulsifying; strong surfactant, watch for over-drying in dry skin.
- Hydrogenated Castor Oil
- Hydrogenated castor oil for emollient, emulsifying, mild cleansing; ensure high purity
- Sodium Sulfate
- Inorganic salt for viscosity; high concentrations cause osmotic dehydration.
- Linalool
- Natural fragrance component at ≤0.05%; one of EU 26 allergens, caution for sensitive skin
- Glycine
- Humectant amino acid, 1–3%; small molecule, low irritation.
- Succinic Acid
- Dicarboxylic acid used as a buffer and natural metabolite; slight flavoring effect, low irritation
- C12-18 Fatty Acids Methyl Esters
- Medium-chain methyl esters; perfuming ingredient, check solubility in polar bases
- Polyquaternium-10
- Cationic polymer for fabric or hair smoothness; generally low irritation but may conflict with other cationic actives
- Panthenol
- Panthenol (vitamin B5) at 1–5%; moisturizing and reparative, supports barrier recovery
- Lanthanum Chloride
- Astringent for antiperspirant/soothing; control concentration, avoid chronic high use
- Malic Acid
- AHA for pH buffering; mild at low conc, risk at high, control pH & total acidity
- Hydrolyzed Soy Protein
- Hydrolyzed soy protein for hydration and antistatic effect; soy is a common allergen requiring labeling, low comedogenicity.
- Limonene
- Natural fragrance solvent, EU allergen; poor photostability
- Hexyl Cinnamal
- Common fragrance component (jasmine/vanilla note); listed EU allergen, requires labeling at >10ppm (leave-on).
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Propylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant at 3-10%; hygroscopic, slight tackiness, mild irritation at high conc., verify preservative efficacy, no allergen.
- Benzyl Alcohol
- Mild preservative/solvent at 0.5-1.0%; EU allergen (labeling required), irritation risk if concentrated, avoid in infant/highly sensitive skin.
- Sodium Hydroxide
- Strong base neutralizer for pH adjustment; handle with extreme care
- Potassium Sorbate
- Preservative effective below pH 6; combinable with sodium benzoate
- Sorbic Acid
- Preservative effective at low pH, often combined with sorbate salts; check regulatory limits
