Formulation view Rose water matrix combined with biosaccharide gum-1 delivers lightweight hydration; argan oil, shea butter, and apricot kernel oil form a rich occlusive layer stabilized by sucrose stearate. Preserved with phenoxyethanol and dehydroacetic acid. Suitable for dry and mature skin overnight repair. Formulator note: Multi-oil system requires careful oxidation value monitoring; high-efficiency chelators are recommended to enhance long-term stability and prevent rancidity.

Ingredients explained
- Aqua
- Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical
- Rosa Damascena Flower Water*
- Rose flower distillate used as a base or soothing agent; slightly acidic, may irritate sensitive skin at high levels.
- Biosaccharide Gum-1
- Biosaccharide Gum-1, fermented colloid for hydration and soothing, low comedogenic.
- Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride
- Light occlusive and solvent at 1–10%; non-greasy feel, suitable for oily and combination skin
- Isopropyl Palmitate
- Isopropyl palmitate for dry touch; prone to oxidation, needs antioxidants, low viscosity
- Sucrose Stearate
- Succrose ester emulsifier/emolient with cleansing properties; HLB determines emulsion type.
- Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil*
- Argania spinosa kernel oil (argan oil) with oleic acid and vitamin E; emollient and antioxidant use in oil phase.
- Butyrospermum Parkii Butter*
- Shea butter providing occlusive moisture; standard comedogenic rating is 2, watch for clogging risk in combination formulas.
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Prunus Armeniaca Kernel Oil*
- Almond oil; basic emollient lipid rich in unsaturated fatty acids; moderate occlusivity, potential mild allergen risk.
- Cetyl Palmitate
- Waxy ester increasing viscosity and providing heavy feel; used as emulsifier carrier, low comedogenicity, strong occlusion.
- Glyceryl Stearate SE
- Emulsifier at 1–3%; oil-phase ingredient, easy emulsification, low sensitization.
- Stearic Acid
- Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel
- Benzyl Alcohol
- Mild preservative/solvent at 0.5-1.0%; EU allergen (labeling required), irritation risk if concentrated, avoid in infant/highly sensitive skin.
- Cera Alba*
- Not decoded yet
- Xanthan Gum
- Natural thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, pH-stable, requires full hydration
- Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil
- Sunflower seed oil for emollient/occlusive; high linoleic acid, low comedogenicity.
- Tocopherol
- Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light
- Dehydroacetic Acid
- Broad-spectrum preservative for acidic and oil-based systems; has concentration limits, requires challenge testing.
