Formulation view A rich cream built on shea butter and synthetic esters for strong occlusion. Niacinamide and panthenol support barrier repair, while diglycerin boosts hydration. Preserved with parabens. Ideal for dry skin or harsh climates. Formulators should note high comedogenic potential; silicones and polyols are balanced to mitigate heavy feel.

Ingredients explained
- Aqua
- Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical
- Ethylhexyl Stearate
- Synthetic ester emollient and emulsifier; oil-soluble, light feel, low comedogenicity, suitable for oily skin.
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Butyrospermum Parkii Butter
- Shea butter for occlusive moisturizing; high melt point, rich texture, caution for oily skin.
- Niacinamide
- Niacinamide at 2–5%; improves texture, controls oil, brightens; high levels may cause sensitivity
- Panthenol
- Panthenol (vitamin B5) at 1–5%; moisturizing and reparative, supports barrier recovery
- Propanediol
- Polyol solvent at 1–5%; light feel, aids solubilization, propylene glycol alternative
- Diglycerin
- Diglycerin humectant and conditioner; low viscosity suitable for liquid formulas, very low irritancy.
- Neopentyl Glycol Diethylhexanoate
- Neopentyl glycol diethylhexanoate emollient; ester oil, medium viscosity feel regulator, low comedogenicity.
- Polyglyceryl-3 Dicitrate/Stearate
- Not decoded yet
- Glyceryl Stearate
- Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification
- Dimethicone
- Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin
- Tocopheryl Acetate
- Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light
- Polyglycerin-3
- Not decoded yet
- Polyglycerin-4
- Not decoded yet
- Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltaurate/VP Copolymer
- Cationic polymer providing suspension, thickening, and conditioning; often paired with anionic thickening systems, low usage, imparts slip.
- Tapioca Starch
- Tapioca starch; powder thickener/oil absorbent; inert, mild comed risk at high conc
- Polymethylsilsesquioxane
- Silicone polymer for emolliency, matte effect, and suspension; used in foundations or powder suspensions, typical usage 1-5%, smooth skin feel.
- Citric Acid
- Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH
- Ethylparaben
- Paraben preservative; EU restricted, watch total load and sensitive skin reactions
- Methylparaben
- Preservative, narrow spectrum; often combined, check allergen risk and regulatory limits.
