Ingredients explained

Aqua/Water/Eau

Water as solvent/base; main ingredient, microbial control needed, paired with preservatives.

Tridecyl Stearate

Tridecyl stearate emollient; lightweight, moderate comedogenic

Neopentyl Glycol Dicaprylate/Dicaprate

Light emollient ester for fast spreadability and a light feel.

Stearic Acid

Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel

Propanediol

Polyol solvent at 1–5%; light feel, aids solubilization, propylene glycol alternative

Tridecyl Trimellitate

Ester emollient for skin conditioning; lipophilic nature may increase comedogenicity for acne-prone skin.

Palmitic Acid

Palmitic acid for emulsification/emollient; solid fat, high melting point, occlusive.

Glyceryl Stearate Se

Emulsifier at 1–3%; oil-phase ingredient, easy emulsification, low sensitization.

Tropaeolum Majus Flower/Leaf/Stem Extract

Tropaeolum majus extract rich in flavonoids for skin conditioning and soothing; monitor concentration for plant sensitivities

Phenyl Trimethicone

Aromatic modified silicone for high gloss and occlusion; inert, non-volatile, may leave surface residue

Lonicera Japonica Flower Extract

Honeysuckle extract for soothing; requires antimicrobial protection.

Lonicera Caprifolium Flower Extract

Honeysuckle extract for soothing and antioxidants; trace use, low allergenic risk

Butyrospermum Parkii Butter

Shea butter for occlusive moisturizing; high melt point, rich texture, caution for oily skin.

Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice

Natural humectant and soother with high water activity; requires preservative system, generally well-tolerated

Tremella Fuciformis Sporocarp Extract

Tremella extract; strong humectant and antioxidant; water-soluble, suitable for anti-aging.

Beeswax/Cera Alba/Cire D'Abeille

Emollient wax providing film formation and stabilization; potential allergen for bee-product sensitive users.

Mel/Honey Extract/Extrait De Miel

Not decoded yet

Boswellia Serrata Extract

Anti-inflammatory and soothing extract, 0.1–0.5%; contains boswellic acids, check compatibility with fragrances

Phospholipids

Biomimetic repair and emollient, mimics skin lipids; typically processed at low temps, may be sticky at high levels

Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract

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

Aspalathus Linearis Leaf Extract

Rooibos leaf extract rich in polyphenols and flavonoids, used for antioxidant conditioning

Tetrapeptide-14

Not decoded yet

Tocopheryl Acetate

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

Retinyl Palmitate

Vitamin A ester for skin conditioning; light-sensitive, requires protection, avoid in pregnancy.

Ascorbyl Palmitate

Ascorbyl palmitate, lipophilic Vit C ester, antioxidant; oxidizes, needs light/air protection.

Hyaluronic Acid

High-water-binding humectant at 0.1-1%; high-MW for surface film, low-MW for dermal potential, check cationic compatibility.

Glycerin

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

Polyacrylamide

Film former and thickener for slip and feel; acrylamide monomer residue risk, strict QC required, restriction III/66

Trisodium Ethylenediamine Disuccinate

Mild chelator replacing EDTA; water-soluble, very low irritation, stabilizes metal ions

Butylene Glycol

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

C13-14 Isoparaffin

Light hydrocarbon solvent providing emolliency and solubility; non-allergenic, note occlusive nature

Citric Acid

Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH

Cetyl Palmitate

Waxy ester increasing viscosity and providing heavy feel; used as emulsifier carrier, low comedogenicity, strong occlusion.

Betaine

Betaine for mild moisturizing/surfactant; low concentration 1-2% common, high may irritate.

Potassium Sorbate

Preservative effective below pH 6; combinable with sodium benzoate

Ceteareth-20

Not decoded yet

Laureth-7

Mild non-ionic surfactant for emulsification and solubilization; biodegradable

Phenoxyethanol

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

Sodium Benzoate

Preservative booster, effective below pH 4.5; combinable with sorbates
