Ingredients explained
- Aqua/Water/Eau
- Water as solvent/base; main ingredient, microbial control needed, paired with preservatives.
- Methylpropanediol
- Diol solvent and extraction carrier; enhances solubility of actives, low irritation profile.
- C15-19 Alkane
- Isoparaffinic oil; light texture, petroleum-derived, requires full hydrotreatment per regulations.
- Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride
- Light occlusive and solvent at 1–10%; non-greasy feel, suitable for oily and combination skin
- Arachidyl Alcohol
- Waxy emulsion stabilizer and thickener, often paired with cetearyl alcohol; heavy feel, good for creams
- Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer
- High-molecular-weight thickener and emulsion stabilizer; requires electrolytes or acid adjustment near isoelectric point for optimal performance.
- Xylitylglucoside
- Polyol humectant with high water absorption and fresh feel; often co-used with propylene glycol for enhanced hydration.
- Anhydroxylitol
- Anhydrous xylitol, potent humectant; high hygroscopicity may cause stickiness at high levels.
- Arachidyl Glucoside
- Mild non-ionic emulsifier and emollient, PEG-free; co-soluble with stearoyl lactylates
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Propanediol
- Polyol solvent at 1–5%; light feel, aids solubilization, propylene glycol alternative
- Hydroxyacetophenone
- Hydroxyacetophenone as antioxidant; often boosts Vitamin C, works in acidic pH.
- Xylitol
- Polyol humectant, sweet taste; water-soluble, high hygroscopy, excess draws moisture.
- Lactobionic Acid
- Polyhydroxy acid for pH buffering; gentle, check stability at high levels
- Chlorella Vulgaris Extract
- Algae extract for skin conditioning and antioxidant; typically 1-5%, monitor stability
- Betaine
- Betaine for mild moisturizing/surfactant; low concentration 1-2% common, high may irritate.
- Teprenone
- Biosynthetic flavonoid for soothing/barrier; low concentrations; stability with acidic systems
- Lespedeza Capitata Leaf/Stem Extract
- Botanical extract for skin conditioning and protection; no known allergen alerts.
- Terminalia Ferdinandiana Fruit Extract
- Terminalia ferdinandiana extract; traditional lightening agent; antioxidant for uneven skin tone.
- Tremella Fuciformis Sporocarp Extract
- Tremella extract; strong humectant and antioxidant; water-soluble, suitable for anti-aging.
- Glycine Soja Oil
- Soybean oil emollient; prone to oxidation, needs antioxidants; suitable for dry skin
- Cupressus Sempervirens Leaf/Stem Extract

- Lavandula Angustifolia Flower/Leaf/Stem Extract
- Aromatic skin conditioning extract; contains fragrance allergens, test for sensitivity.
- Camellia Sinensis Flower Extract
- Not decoded yet
- Juniperus Virginiana Wood Extract
- Not decoded yet
- Glyceryl Caprylate
- Mild emulsifier/deodorant at 0.5-2%; polyol ester, high humectancy, low irritancy, check cationic surfactant compatibility.
- Glyceryl Undecylenate
- Light ester emollient with silk-like, spreadable feel; common carrier for UV filters, good silicone compatibility
- Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Fruit Extract
- Bergamot extract with citrus scent; phototoxic risk, best avoided in leave-on products exposed to sun.
- Rosmarinus Officinalis Leaf Extract
- Plant extract containing rosmarinic acid etc., with antioxidant and antimicrobial properties; may contain allergenic fragrances, patch test for sensitive skin, typical concentration <1%.
- Rubus Idaeus Fruit Extract
- Raspberry fruit extract with astringent and keratolytic properties; exfoliating, may irritate at high levels
- Salvia Officinalis Leaf Extract
- Herbal extract for seborrhea control, antibacterial action, and oral care; high levels may irritate sensitive skin.
- Santalum Album Wood Extract
- Sandalwood extract; soothing conditioner with woody scent. Watch for batch variance and sensitization.
- Vanilla Planifolia Fruit Extract
- Vanilla extract adds scent and soothing; acts as natural fragrance, dose carefully.
- Behenyl Alcohol
- Fat alcohol emulsifier/thickener at 1-3%; low comedogenic risk, check solubility in strong acid/base systems, add antioxidants.
- 1,2-Hexanediol
- Polyol solvent and preservative booster at 1–5%; light feel, can replace some traditional preservatives
- Caprylyl Glycol
- Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol
