- Not decoded yet
- Panthenol
- Panthenol (vitamin B5) at 1–5%; moisturizing and reparative, supports barrier recovery
- Tocopheryl Acetate
- Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light
- Sodium PCA
- Sodium PCA, NMF component, 1-10% humectant; salty/tacky at high levels.
- PVP
- Polyvinylpyrrolidone for film forming and thickening; used in styling and adhesion, occasional eye irritation reported.
- Polyquaternium-4
- Not decoded yet
- Polyquaternium-7
- Not decoded yet
- Polysorbate 20
- Non-ionic emulsifier and cleansing surfactant; contains PEG, control microbial load.
- PPG-12-PEG-50 Lanolin
- Lanolin derivative for strong emollience and occlusion; animal-derived, watch for lanolin allergy
- Olealkonium Chloride
- Cationic hair conditioning agent that deposits on strands; avoid direct mixing with anionic surfactants.
- Quaternium-15
- Not decoded yet
- Dimethicone
- Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin
- Ethylhexyl Hydroxystearate
- Ester emollient 1-5%; non-comedogenic, silky, compatible with sunscreens
- Polyglyceryl-4 Oleate
- Non-ionic emulsifier derived from plant oils; gentle, used in O/W or W/O systems, low irritancy.
- PEG-12 Dimethicone
- Water-soluble silicone; provides slip and gloss, easily emulsified, common in hair and skin care.
- Polysorbate 80
- Non-ionic emulsifier and solubilizer; watch for interaction with parabens
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Lactic Acid
- AHA pH adjuster at 0.5-5%; exfoliation/humectancy, mild at low conc., irritating at high, avoid conflict with alkaline preservatives.
- Sorbitol
- Polyol humectant with strong hygroscopy; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives; also a solvent or adjuster.
- Ascorbic Acid
- Vitamin C, potent antioxidant requiring acidic environment for stability; oxidizes and discolors easily, needs light and air protection, concentration 1-10%, pure L-ascorbic acid is more irritating.
- Sodium Hyaluronate
- Potent humectant at 0.1–2%; different MW for penetration depth, high levels may draw moisture
- Biotin
- Vitamin B7 nutrient claimant; topical effect limited, use at 1-20 ppm.
- Niacinamide
- Niacinamide at 2–5%; improves texture, controls oil, brightens; high levels may cause sensitivity
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Fragrance
- Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components
- Benzyl Alcohol
- Mild preservative/solvent at 0.5-1.0%; EU allergen (labeling required), irritation risk if concentrated, avoid in infant/highly sensitive skin.
- Red 40
- Common water-soluble synthetic dye; azo-based, potential sensitizer; check local prohibited colorant lists
- Benzyl Salicylate
- UV absorber/light stabilizer, restricted in EU; potential sensitizer, risk assessment needed.
- Butylphenyl Methylpropional
