Ingredients explained

Water

Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth

BG

Butylene glycol; humectant and solvent. Low irritancy, common in water-in-oil and oil-in-water formulas.

Glycerin

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

PEG-75

Not decoded yet

Trehalose

Trehalose; mild humectant and stabilizer for proteins/actives; hygroscopic, light skin feel.

Sorbitol

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

Glycosyl Trehalose

Glycosylated trehalose to enhance skin tolerance and moisture retention; acts as a film former.

Hydrogenated Starch Hydrolysate

Humectant for hydration and film formation; 1-5%, monitor microbial contamination

Arginine

Arginine for moisturizing/conditioning; amino acid, high biocompatibility, often used in blends.

Pca

Proline carboxylic acid, NMF component; humectant, generally low irritation but may sensitise.

Pca-Na

NMF component; strong humectant; can feel sticky at high concentrations.

Sodium Lactate

Sodium lactate for moisturizing and exfoliation; pH buffering agent

Serine

Humectant amino acid, 1–3%; high water solubility, compatible with sensitive skin.

Glycine

Humectant amino acid, 1–3%; small molecule, low irritation.

Alanine

Amino acid for antistatic and conditioning; low irritation, slight salty taste at high levels

Threonine

Threonine, essential amino acid for hair/skin; blended with other AAs for balance.

Proline

Proline, amino-acid humectant; boosts stratum corneum hydration, stable at pH 4-5.

Histidine

Amino acid humectant and antistatic agent; pH-dependent behavior, consider buffering in formulation.

Phenylalanine

Amino acid for hair and skin conditioning; usually part of a blend, no significant standalone efficacy data

Glutamic Acid

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

Aspartic Acid

Amino acid humectant and conditioner, common in rinse-off products; low levels mild, high levels may shift pH

Leucine

Amino acid for antistatic and skin/hair conditioning; used at low concentrations.

Valine

Amino acid humectant, common in amino acid cleansers and sprays; mild, suitable for all skin types

Isoleucine

Amino acid for hair and skin conditioning and antistatic purposes; often blended; check taste if high.

Lysine Hcl

Lysine HCl, amino acid for hair and skin conditioning, reduces protein loss

Hydroxyethyl Urea

Potent humectant and conditioner; high penetration, used for skin hydration and hair care

PEG-20 Sorbitan Cocoate

O/W emulsifier and solubilizer in creams and cleansers; coconut fatty-acid ester, screen coconut allergy.

PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil

Non-ionic emulsifier and solubilizer at 1–5%; contains PEG, check acid compatibility and sensitive skin irritation

Citric Acid

Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH

Sodium Citrate

Sodium citrate for buffering and chelating; adjust pH, careful with strong acid reactions.

EDTA 2Na

Chelating agent that enhances preservative efficacy and stabilizes formulations; usage must be controlled to prevent metal ion interference.

Carbomer

Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility

Ethylhexylglycerin

Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel

Phenoxyethanol

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

Methylparaben

Preservative, narrow spectrum; often combined, check allergen risk and regulatory limits.

Sodium Benzoate

Preservative booster, effective below pH 4.5; combinable with sorbates
