Ingredients explained

Aqua/Water/Eau

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

Cetearyl Alcohol

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

Behentrimonium Chloride

Cationic conditioner and preservative; used within restricted limits, high doses may irritate.

Stearamidopropyl Dimethylamine

Cationic quaternary amine; antistatic/emulsifier; mild conditioning, affinity for keratin, no pub data

Lycium Barbarum Fruit Extract

Lycium barbarum extract; astringent and conditioner. Use at 1-2%; contains polysaccharides and antioxidants.

Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract

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

Hydrolyzed Soy Protein

Hydrolyzed soy protein for hydration and antistatic effect; soy is a common allergen requiring labeling, low comedogenicity.

Hydrolyzed Quinoa

Hydrolyzed quinoa for skin conditioning and moisturization; plant-derived small molecules, generally well-tolerated.

Hydrolyzed Rice Protein

Rice protein; water-soluble small MM; antistatic, humectant, gloss for hair, no pub data

Helianthus Annuus Seed Extract

Sunflower seed extract; flavonoids and oleic acid, 0.5–5%; antioxidant repair, match phase, low allergenicity

Hydrolyzed Vegetable Protein Pg-Propyl Silanetriol

Silane-modified polymer for smoothness and wet combing; pair with cationic conditioning agents

Alanine

Amino acid for antistatic and conditioning; low irritation, slight salty taste at high levels

Arginine

Arginine for moisturizing/conditioning; amino acid, high biocompatibility, often used in blends.

Aspartic Acid

Amino acid humectant and conditioner, common in rinse-off products; low levels mild, high levels may shift pH

Glycine

Humectant amino acid, 1–3%; small molecule, low irritation.

Histidine

Amino acid humectant and antistatic agent; pH-dependent behavior, consider buffering in formulation.

Isoleucine

Amino acid for hair and skin conditioning and antistatic purposes; often blended; check taste if high.

Phenylalanine

Amino acid for hair and skin conditioning; usually part of a blend, no significant standalone efficacy data

Proline

Proline, amino-acid humectant; boosts stratum corneum hydration, stable at pH 4-5.

Serine

Humectant amino acid, 1–3%; high water solubility, compatible with sensitive skin.

Threonine

Threonine, essential amino acid for hair/skin; blended with other AAs for balance.

Valine

Amino acid humectant, common in amino acid cleansers and sprays; mild, suitable for all skin types

Panthenol

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

Polyquaternium-11

Not decoded yet

Undeceth-5

Not decoded yet

Glycerin

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

Dicetyldimonium Chloride

Cationic surfactant for hair/beard care; provides antistatic, emulsifying, cleansing, and conditioning. Irritant to eyes and skin.

Isopropyl Palmitate

Isopropyl palmitate for dry touch; prone to oxidation, needs antioxidants, low viscosity

Undeceth-11

Not decoded yet

Silicone Quaternium-16

Not decoded yet

Citric Acid

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

Sodium PCA

Sodium PCA, NMF component, 1-10% humectant; salty/tacky at high levels.

Trisodium Hedta

Metal chelating agent preventing oxidation/discoloration; typical 0.01-0.1%, high biocompatibility

Butyloctanol

Ester solvent/humectant, adjusts spreadability; low volatility, may leave residue, watch for cross-sensitivity in allergy-prone users.

Parfum/Fragrance

Blended fragrance for odor; contains 26 restricted allergens, use caution in sensitive/child/eye products, verify compliance.

Magnesium Chloride

Inorganic salt for thickening and pH adjustment; 0.1-1%, avoid calcium ions

Disodium EDTA

Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy

Panthenyl Ethyl Ether

Hair conditioning agent with antistatic properties, common in hair care

Isopropyl Alcohol

Alcohol solvent at 1–10%; fast-evaporating, high levels may cause dryness/irritation

Iodopropynyl Butylcarbamate

Broad-spectrum preservative; mild irritation; caution for sensitized skin.

Sodium Lactate

Sodium lactate for moisturizing and exfoliation; pH buffering agent

Pca

Proline carboxylic acid, NMF component; humectant, generally low irritation but may sensitise.

Tetrasodium EDTA

Chelator removing metal ions to enhance antioxidant and preservative efficacy; very low usage, typically 0.05-0.1%, no direct skincare function.

Sodium Benzoate

Preservative booster, effective below pH 4.5; combinable with sorbates

Magnesium Nitrate

Inorganic salt for hair conditioning; improves smoothness and shine, high concentrations may stiffen hair, balance cationics.

Acetic Acid

Provides sourness or buffering; high concentrations are corrosive, pH control is critical in leave-on products

Sodium Hydroxide

Strong base neutralizer for pH adjustment; handle with extreme care

Potassium Sorbate

Preservative effective below pH 6; combinable with sodium benzoate

Methylchloroisothiazolinone

Preservative (MCI); highly sensitizing, use only in rinse-off, avoid leave-on products.

Methylisothiazolinone

Strong preservative; high allergy risk, EU restricted for leave-on products, high formulation risk

Phenoxyethanol

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

Benzyl Alcohol

Mild preservative/solvent at 0.5-1.0%; EU allergen (labeling required), irritation risk if concentrated, avoid in infant/highly sensitive skin.

Butylphenyl Methylpropional

Synthetic fragrance with floral notes; EU regulations limit usage, strict monitoring required.

Limonene

Natural fragrance solvent, EU allergen; poor photostability

Hydroxycitronellal

Hydroxycitronellal, sensitizing fragrance, EU limit <0.1%; avoid use as aerosol propellant.

Linalool

Natural fragrance component at ≤0.05%; one of EU 26 allergens, caution for sensitive skin
