Ingredients explained

Aqua

Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical

Glycerin

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

Caprylic/Capric/Succinic Triglyceride

Ester-based emulsifier and emollient; oil phase component, aids emulsification and improves skin feel, low comedogenicity.

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

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

Hydrogenated Coco-Glycerides

Hydrog coco glycerides; waxy emollient; low irrit, low-mid comed, occlusive option

Butylene Glycol

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

Aluminum Starch Octenylsuccinate

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

Pentylene Glycol

Polyol humectant at 1-3%; low irritancy, suitable for sensitive skin

Cetyl Alcohol

Cetyl alcohol for emulsification/thickening; high concentration >10% may irritate.

C10-18 Triglycerides

Mixture of C10-18 triglycerides for emolliency, conditioning, and solvency; low comedogenic risk but occlusive.

Glyceryl Stearate

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

PEG-75 Stearate

PEG-75 stearate, non-ionic emulsifier/thickener; PEG-based, check for 1,4-dioxane limits, not used in some markets.

Behenyl Alcohol

Fat alcohol emulsifier/thickener at 1-3%; low comedogenic risk, check solubility in strong acid/base systems, add antioxidants.

Dimethicone

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

Phenoxyethanol

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

Maris Aqua

Seawater solvent & humectant; mineral-rich, caution on sensitive skin

Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltaurate/VP Copolymer

Cationic polymer providing suspension, thickening, and conditioning; often paired with anionic thickening systems, low usage, imparts slip.

Ceteth-20

Not decoded yet

Steareth-20

Not decoded yet

Xanthan Gum

Natural thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, pH-stable, requires full hydration

Parfum

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

Menthoxypropanediol

Menthol derivative; cooling agent for immediate freshness; concentration control to avoid irritation.

Sorbitol

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

Sodium Hyaluronate

Potent humectant at 0.1–2%; different MW for penetration depth, high levels may draw moisture

Silica

Silica powder at 1–10%; absorbs oil, thickens, provides matte finish, for oil-control products

Algin

Seaweed-derived thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, mind calcium ion compatibility

Tromethamine

pH adjuster, alkaline; precise dosing required

Glycyrrhiza Glabra Root Extract

Liquorice root extract for soothing and brightening; batch variability, watch polyphenol interactions

Polyvinyl Alcohol

Film/viscosity agent for masks/cleansers; water-soluble, forms flexible film

Laminaria Digitata Extract

Seaweed extract for skin protection; moderate concentration to avoid osmotic irritation.

Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone

Vanilla-like fragrance ingredient; one of EU 26 allergens, caution advised for sensitive skin.

BHT

Lipophilic antioxidant at 0.01-0.05%; ineffective with acidic systems, label-sensitive, check regulatory limits as preservative alternative.

Cellulose Gum

Cellulose gum, water-soluble thickener/stabilizer; may destabilize with cationics, hydrate first.

Laureth-3

Not decoded yet

Jania Rubens Extract

Jania rubens extract with polysaccharides; moisturizing skin conditioner, check algal batch stability.

Hydroxyethylcellulose

Water-soluble cellulose ether for thickening and suspension stabilization; sensitive to ions, electrolytes reduce viscosity, use at pH 7-8.

Acetyl Dipeptide-1 Cetyl Ester

Acetyl dipeptide-1 cetyl ester for hair and skin; ester structure, avoid for oily skin, check compatibility.

Skeletonema Costatum Extract

Not decoded yet

Potassium Sorbate

Preservative effective below pH 6; combinable with sodium benzoate

Tocopherol

Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light

Lecithin

Phospholipid emulsifier at 1-5%; biocompatible, moisturizing/antioxidant, prone to oxidation (add TBHQ), mild for sensitive skin.

Glutamic Acid

Glutamic acid, non-essential amino acid humectant; high levels can be astringent, buffer needed.

Biotin

Vitamin B7 nutrient claimant; topical effect limited, use at 1-20 ppm.

Ascorbyl Palmitate

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

Ci 77499

Inorganic colorant manganese dioxide used in cosmetics; restricted use component subject to regulatory limits.
