Ingredients explained
- Water
- Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
- C12-14 Sec-Pareth-9
- Not decoded yet
- Ethanolamine
- pH adjuster; restricted in cosmetics, potential sensitizer and irritant.
- Alcohol
- Ethanol for solubility/drying at 5-15%; high conc. is drying/irritating, avoid lip/eye, low residue, balance with humectants.
- Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate
- Amino acid surfactant, gentle cleansing; rich foam, may sting eyes, good compatibility.
- Sodium Laureth Sulfate
- Common anionic surfactant, strong foam but drying; check cationic compatibility, high eye irritation
- Ammonium Chloride
- Ammonium chloride as buffer, foam modifier, and viscosity control in shaving foams and cleansers, slightly acidic pH
- Ammonia
- Alkaline buffer in hair dyes; strong odor, avoid inhalation, concentration restricted
- Polyquaternium-22
- Not decoded yet
- 4-Amino-2-Hydroxytoluene
- Permanent hair dye ingredient; restricted professional use, high sensitization risk.
- Fragrance
- Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components
- Sodium Sulfite
- Sulfite antioxidant to prevent oxidation; sulfites are known allergens and must be strictly declared on labels.
- Ascorbic Acid
- Vitamin C, potent antioxidant requiring acidic environment for stability; oxidizes and discolors easily, needs light and air protection, concentration 1-10%, pure L-ascorbic acid is more irritating.
- Myristyl Alcohol
- Long-chain fatty alcohol for emulsion stability and conditioning; slippery feel, low sensitization, common in creams.
- Sodium Hydroxide
- Strong base neutralizer for pH adjustment; handle with extreme care
- Tetrasodium EDTA
- Chelator removing metal ions to enhance antioxidant and preservative efficacy; very low usage, typically 0.05-0.1%, no direct skincare function.
- Trisodium EDTA
- Metal chelator improving formula stability and synergizing preservatives; used at very low levels (<0.1%), control heavy metals.
- Butylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel
- Hydrolyzed Silk
- Hydrolyzed silk; amino acid-rich humectant for skin and hair; potential protein allergens for sensitive skin
- Royal Jelly Extract
- Royal jelly extract for skin conditioning; contains animal proteins, contraindicated for bee allergies
- Rubus Idaeus Fruit
- Raspberry fruit extract with AHA and polyphenols, astringent; acidic, may irritate
- Extract
- Unspecified extract with unknown function; requires supplier species ID and certification before use
- Sodium Benzoate
- Preservative booster, effective below pH 4.5; combinable with sorbates
- Ethylparaben
- Paraben preservative; EU restricted, watch total load and sensitive skin reactions
- Propylparaben
- Medium-chain preservative; restricted use, pH-sensitive efficacy.
- 2,4-Diaminophenoxyethanol Hcl
- 2,4-diaminophenoxyethanol HCl, azo dye intermediate for hair dyeing; restricted in EU, high allergy risk.
- Toluene-2,5-Diamine
- Permanent dye intermediate, strong sensitizer, mandatory labeling; strict concentration limit, caution for sensitive users
- P-Aminophenol
- p-Phenylenediamine, dye intermediate, strong sensitizer; carcinogenic concerns, restricted use
- Water
- Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
- Hydrogen Peroxide
- Strong oxidant for oral care or bleaching; strictly prohibited in occlusive skin applications due to burn risk
- Steartrimonium Chloride
- Cationic hair conditioner; potential allergen, dosage restricted
- Ceteth-150
- Not decoded yet
- Ppg-7
- Not decoded yet
- Propylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant at 3-10%; hygroscopic, slight tackiness, mild irritation at high conc., verify preservative efficacy, no allergen.
- Behenyl Alcohol
- Fat alcohol emulsifier/thickener at 1-3%; low comedogenic risk, check solubility in strong acid/base systems, add antioxidants.
- Cetyl Alcohol
- Cetyl alcohol for emulsification/thickening; high concentration >10% may irritate.
- Ceteth-40
- Not decoded yet
- Lanolin Acid
- Not decoded yet
- Etidronic Acid
- Etidronic acid chelator, restriction III/53 (<0.01%); binds metal ions to prevent oxidative discoloration.
- Oxyquinoline Sulfate
- Antimicrobial and chelator; irritating, restricted in specific product categories
- Sodium Hydroxide
- Strong base neutralizer for pH adjustment; handle with extreme care
- BHT
- Lipophilic antioxidant at 0.01-0.05%; ineffective with acidic systems, label-sensitive, check regulatory limits as preservative alternative.
