Ingredients explained

Aqua

Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical

Hexanediol

1,6-Hexanediol; efficient solvent and preservative booster. May replace traditional preservatives. Mild sting at high levels.

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

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

Glyceryl Stearate

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

Glycerin

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

Cetearyl Alcohol

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

Panax Ginseng Root Extract

Botanical extract for skin and hair conditioning; activity and irritation risk vary by source/purity, patch test for sensitive skin

Pinus Sylvestris Bark Extract

Scotch pine bark extract; flavonoids support microcirculation, watch for allergens

Ribes Nigrum Leaf Extract

Not decoded yet

Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract

Green tea extract for antioxidant/astringent; contains caffeine, possible irritation in sensitive skin.

Panthenol

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

Bisabolol

Soothing and anti-inflammatory agent, 0.01–0.1%; low irritation, good for sensitive skin.

1,10-Decanediol

Aliphatic diol solvent; irritant to eyes and compromised skin, avoid direct contact.

10-Hydroxydecanoic Acid

Long-chain hydroxy fatty acid for emollience and barrier support; control concentration to avoid clogging

Sebacic Acid

Sebacic acid; lipophilic buffering agent and skin conditioner; check dispersion in formulation.

Tocopheryl Acetate

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

Aluminum Starch Octenylsuccinate

Modified starch absorbent at 1–10%; for powder products, oil-absorbing without heavy feel

Sorbitol

Polyol humectant with strong hygroscopy; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives; also a solvent or adjuster.

Propylene Glycol

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

Dimethicone

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

Butylene Glycol

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

Sodium Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer

Acrylate copolymer for film/thickening; water-soluble, compatible, monitor residual monomers.

Potassium Cetyl Phosphate

Cetyl phosphate potassium, O/W emulsifier; pH-sensitive, often requires buffering.

Sodium Carbomer

Carbomer sodium, strong gelling agent; requires neutralization, high thickening power, may interact with cationic actives.

Polyisobutene

Inert film former and occlusive; increases viscosity, slippery feel, used in lipsticks

Hydrogenated Palm Glycerides

Semi-synthetic ester for emollience and emulsification; palm-oil derived, higher comedogenicity, caution in blends

Sorbitan Oleate

Non-ionic emulsifier for oil-in-water systems; plant-derived, check oxidative stability

Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside

Caprylyl/capryl glucoside, mild sugar surfactant; low irritation, moderate cleansing

Alcohol Denat

Denatured ethanol; solvent, penetration enhancer, and quick-dry agent; high % may compromise barrier in dry skin.

Parfum

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

Phenoxyethanol

Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
