Ingredients explained
- Aqua
- Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical
- Sodium Laureth Sulfate
- Common anionic surfactant, strong foam but drying; check cationic compatibility, high eye irritation
- Cocamidopropyl Betaine
- Cocamidopropyl betaine; zwitterionic co-surfactant reducing irritation and boosting foam, common in mild cleansers.
- Cocamide MEA
- Foam booster and thickener for cleansing products; 1-3%, check compatibility with anionic surfactants
- Dimethiconol
- Dimethiconol; silicone emollient providing silky feel and reducing friction; moderate comedogenicity, avoid excess.
- Glycol Stearate
- Glycol stearate emulsifier and thickener; improves texture and feel, generally well-tolerated.
- Guar Hydroxypropyltrimonium Chloride
- Cationic guar derivative for antistatic, film-forming, viscosity control; common in hair/skin conditioning
- Acrylates Copolymer
- Acrylate synthetic polymer for film forming and antistatic; breathable film, control dosage carefully
- Parfum
- Fragrance for scent; may contain allergens, caution for sensitive skin, full labeling required.
- PPG-12-Buteth-16
- Not decoded yet
- Disodium EDTA
- Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy
- Citric Acid
- Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH
- Menthyl Lactate
- Menthyl lactate, cooling and fragrance agent, provides mild menthol sensation for refreshing
- Potassium Hydroxide
- Strong alkali pH adjuster, trace usage (<0.1%); corrosive, must be neutralized.
- Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein
- Hydrolyzed protein for hair and skin conditioning; potential allergen, use low levels in sensitive products
- Wheat Amino Acids
- Wheat amino acids for hair/skin; contains gluten, allergy caution
- Hydrolyzed Wheat Starch
- Hydrolyzed wheat starch for moisture and viscosity; gluten-derived, caution for gluten-sensitive or allergic populations.
- Biotin
- Vitamin B7 nutrient claimant; topical effect limited, use at 1-20 ppm.
- Caffeine
- Active ingredient, 0.1–2%; promotes circulation, irritation risk at high concentration.
- 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
- Limonene
- Natural fragrance solvent, EU allergen; poor photostability
- Hexyl Cinnamal
- Common fragrance component (jasmine/vanilla note); listed EU allergen, requires labeling at >10ppm (leave-on).
- Linalool
- Natural fragrance component at ≤0.05%; one of EU 26 allergens, caution for sensitive skin
- Benzyl Salicylate
- UV absorber/light stabilizer, restricted in EU; potential sensitizer, risk assessment needed.
