Ingredients explained
- Benzoyl Peroxide
- Strong decolorizer/antibacterial for acne; medical use only, strictly prohibited in cosmetics.
- Anhydrous Citric Acid
- Not decoded yet
- Butylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel
- Butyrospermum Parkii Fruit
- Not decoded yet
- Capryl/Capramidopropyl Betaine
- Not decoded yet
- Cetostearyl Alcohol
- Not decoded yet
- Cocamidopropyl Betaine
- Cocamidopropyl betaine; zwitterionic co-surfactant reducing irritation and boosting foam, common in mild cleansers.
- Diazolidinyl Urea
- Formaldehyde-releasing preservative; EU cap at 0.2%; avoid for formaldehyde-sensitive users
- Disodium PEG-5 Laurylcitrate Sulfosuccinate
- Not decoded yet
- Ethylhexylglycerin
- Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel
- Euphorbia Cerifera Wax
- Carnauba wax for hardness/occlusion/film; plant-derived, confirm extraction purity
- Hydrolyzed Soy Protein
- Hydrolyzed soy protein for hydration and antistatic effect; soy is a common allergen requiring labeling, low comedogenicity.
- Hydroxyethyl Behenamidopropyl Dimonium Chloride
- Diamonium surfactant; superior conditioning for damaged hair, milder than mono
- Methylparaben
- Preservative, narrow spectrum; often combined, check allergen risk and regulatory limits.
- PEG-8 Dimethicone
- Water-soluble silicone offering slip and spreadability; helps disperse silicone ingredients, generally well-tolerated by sensitive skin.
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Portulaca Oleracea Extract
- Achyronica extract with anti-inflammatory properties; monitor for heavy metals and pesticides, low-risk at typical doses
- Propylparaben
- Medium-chain preservative; restricted use, pH-sensitive efficacy.
- Purified Water
- Deionized or purified water serving as the formulation solvent base; requires protection from microbial contamination, typically constitutes the majority of the formula.
- Sodium Citrate
- Sodium citrate for buffering and chelating; adjust pH, careful with strong acid reactions.
- Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate
- Mild anionic surfactant for cleansing and emulsification; 1-5%, suitable for sensitive skin
- Xanthan Gum
- Natural thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, pH-stable, requires full hydration
