Formulation view This formula relies on physical exfoliation within a light emulsified matrix of polyols and seed oils, stabilized by high-molecular-weight thickeners. Early placement of cinnamon and soy extracts suggests combined conditioning and aromatic functions. Suitable for combination or oily skin seeking gentle scrubbing. Factory note: cinnamon is a known sensitizer; its position relative to exfoliants requires strict allergy labeling and residual fragrance control.

Ingredients explained
- Water (Aqua
- Solvent and base; pharmaceutical grade recommended for active formulations.
- Eau)
- Pure water, solvent and diluent; drinking water standard, no known allergens or irritation
- Polylactic Acid
- Physical exfoliating abrasive; particle size must suit efficacy without scratching
- Butylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel
- Cetyl Alcohol
- Cetyl alcohol for emulsification/thickening; high concentration >10% may irritate.
- Squalane
- Emollient from plants or synthetic; light texture
- Glyceryl Stearate
- Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification
- PEG-100 Stearate
- Non-ionic emulsifier, requires ionics for stability; check PEG for formaldehyde.
- Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer
- High-molecular-weight thickener and emulsion stabilizer; requires electrolytes or acid adjustment near isoelectric point for optimal performance.
- Vitis Vinifera Seed
- Not decoded yet
- Limnanthes Alba Seed Oil
- Lightweight natural oil with mineral oil-like feel; oxidizes easily, add antioxidants and control dose.
- Cinnamomum Cassia Bark Extract
- Cinnamon bark for hair and fragrance; some allergens require labeling; watch oral dosage.
- Glycine Soja Seed Extract
- Soybean extract for skin conditioning; low allergen risk, monitor batch protein variability.
- Lactobacillus/Punica Granatum Fruit Ferment Extract
- Lactobacillus fermented pomegranate fruit extract for skin and hair conditioning; contains bioactive peptides, monitor pH and microbial limits.
- Vitis Vinifera Seed Extract
- Grape seed extract with OPCs; potent antioxidant; used for skin protection and UV support; needs stabilizers.
- Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis Seed Extract
- Sweet almond extract, oils/phenolics for moisture/repair, low allergenicity but label nut origin
- Salix Nigra Bark Extract
- Black willow bark extract with natural salicylic acid precursors; for soothing and exfoliation, test on sensitive skin at low levels.
- Sanguisorba Officinalis Root Extract
- Astringent and soothing claims; used in toners/cleansers; monitor for plant protein allergies.
- Trifolium Pratense Flower Extract
- Red clover flower extract; astringent and fragrance, test for sensitization
- Zingiber Officinale Root Extract
- Root extract for scent and toning; may irritate compromised skin.
- Hydrolyzed Soy Protein
- Hydrolyzed soy protein for hydration and antistatic effect; soy is a common allergen requiring labeling, low comedogenicity.
- Leuconostoc/Radish Root Ferment Filtrate
- Bio-fermented filtrate for antimicrobial and anti-dandruff effects; assess individual variability, avoid in known allergy.
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Sorbitan Isostearate
- Non-ionic emulsifier (low HLB); typically used in blends, low comedogenicity, soft skin feel.
- Disodium EDTA
- Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy
- Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride
- Light occlusive and solvent at 1–10%; non-greasy feel, suitable for oily and combination skin
- Polysorbate 60
- Non-ionic emulsifier and solubilizer for O/W or W/O stability; may cause mild stinging on sensitive skin, typically 1-5%.
- Chlorphenesin
- Phenolic antimicrobial; strict EU limits apply, potential allergen, careful dosing required for leave-on products.
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Caprylyl Glycol
- Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol
