Highlights
Formulation view This formula uses a light, water-based system with polyols and esters, stabilized by a plant-derived emulsifier. Key actives include olive squalane for barrier support and herbal extracts like Sophora flavescens for oil control. A lipid peptide mimics ceramide function. Ideal for combination or oily skin types daily. From a formulator's view, the preservative system relies on sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate, requiring pH monitoring for efficacy, while the texture remains lightweight and non-greasy.
