Ingredients explained
- Aqua
- Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical
- Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate
- Vitamin C derivative antioxidant at 0.5–2%; light-sensitive, requires opaque packaging
- Cyclotetrasiloxane
- Volatile silicone providing slip; D4 is restricted in EU rinse-off products and requires labeling for leave-on use.
- Cyclopentasiloxane
- Cyclopentasiloxane for emollient/solvent; volatile silicone, smooth feel, check VOC regulations.
- Aqua
- Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical
- Sodium Hyaluronate
- Potent humectant at 0.1–2%; different MW for penetration depth, high levels may draw moisture
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Isopropyl Myristate
- Light synthetic ester, fast-drying and non-greasy; high comedogenic risk, limit in acne-prone skin
- Polyacrylamide
- Film former and thickener for slip and feel; acrylamide monomer residue risk, strict QC required, restriction III/66
- C13-14 Isoparaffin
- Light hydrocarbon solvent providing emolliency and solubility; non-allergenic, note occlusive nature
- Laureth - 7
- Not decoded yet
- Propylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant at 3-10%; hygroscopic, slight tackiness, mild irritation at high conc., verify preservative efficacy, no allergen.
- PEG-100 Stearate
- Non-ionic emulsifier, requires ionics for stability; check PEG for formaldehyde.
- Glyceryl Stearate
- Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification
- Cetearyl Alcohol
- Fatty alcohol emulsifier at 1-5%; non-ionic surfactant
- Ceteareth-22
- Not decoded yet
- Glycolic Acid
- Glycolic acid for exfoliation; requires buffering at concentrations >10%, avoid combination with other acids.
- Ethylhexyl Palmitate
- Synthetic ester emollient with light skin feel; small molecule, slightly comedogenic, use cautiously for acne-prone skin, often blended with other oils.
- Tocopheryl Acetate
- Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light
- Panthenol
- Panthenol (vitamin B5) at 1–5%; moisturizing and reparative, supports barrier recovery
- Methyl Gluceth-20
- Not decoded yet
- Dimethicone
- Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin
- Methylparaben
- Preservative, narrow spectrum; often combined, check allergen risk and regulatory limits.
- Disodium EDTA
- Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy
- Sodium Metabisulfite
- Antioxidant/preservative at 0.05–0.2%; irritating for sensitive skin, avoid with oxidizers
- Propylparaben
- Medium-chain preservative; restricted use, pH-sensitive efficacy.
- 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.
