Ingredients explained

Water

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

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

Cetearyl Alcohol

Fatty alcohol emulsifier at 1-5%; non-ionic surfactant

Butyrospermum Parkii

African oil/fat/wax; clarify form (oil, butter, or powder) as function depends on it.

Cocos Nucifera Fruit Juice

Coconut water containing minerals and amino acids; acts as humectant and hair conditioner, requires preservatives due to high sugar content.

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.

Phenoxyethanol

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

Cellulose

Plant-derived thickener at 0.1–1%; requires full hydration, poor cationic compatibility

Cetearyl Glucoside

Gentle non-ionic sugar-based emulsifier for low-irritation formulas; often co-blended

Sodium Polyacrylate

Superabsorbent resin, <1%; gels with electrolytes, ionic strength control required.

Sodium polyacrylate starch

Sodium polyacrylate starch graft, absorbent and binder; hydrophilic polymer for powders, watch for hardness changes upon hydration.

Propylene Glycol

Polyol humectant at 3-10%; hygroscopic, slight tackiness, mild irritation at high conc., verify preservative efficacy, no allergen.

Xylitylglucoside

Polyol humectant with high water absorption and fresh feel; often co-used with propylene glycol for enhanced hydration.

Butylene Glycol

Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel

Caprylyl Glycol

Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol

Parfum

Fragrance for scent; may contain allergens, caution for sensitive skin, full labeling required.

Anhydroxylitol

Anhydrous xylitol, potent humectant; high hygroscopicity may cause stickiness at high levels.

Ethylhexylglycerin

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

Xylitol

Polyol humectant, sweet taste; water-soluble, high hygroscopy, excess draws moisture.

Bisabolol

Soothing and anti-inflammatory agent, 0.01–0.1%; low irritation, good for sensitive skin.

Disodium EDTA

Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy

Tartaric acid

Small-molecule organic acid used as buffer and antioxidant; highly irritating at high levels, caution for sensitive skin

Tocopherol

Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light

Glucose

Low-MW humectant and buffer; high hygroscopicity requires careful preservation and humidity control.

Tamarindus Indica Extract

Not decoded yet

Marrubium Vulgare Extract

Saponarin-rich extract for soothing and hydration; typical in photoprotection or sensitive skin formulas

PEG-8 Methyl Ether Dimethicone

Not decoded yet

Lycium Barbarum Fruit Extract

Lycium barbarum extract; astringent and conditioner. Use at 1-2%; contains polysaccharides and antioxidants.

Citric Acid

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

Ficus Carica Fruit Extract

Fig fruit extract, humectant with polysaccharides and enzymes for skin moisturizing

Malpighia Emarginata Seed Extract

Guarana seed extract; contains caffeine and polyphenols; hair/skin conditioning; caffeine may irritate sensitive skin

Sodium Benzoate

Preservative booster, effective below pH 4.5; combinable with sorbates

Rhododendron Ferrugineum Extract

Rhododendron ferrugineum extract, fragrance and skin protection; may contain natural pigments, watch for batch color variance.

Potassium Sorbate

Preservative effective below pH 6; combinable with sodium benzoate

Sorbic Acid

Preservative effective at low pH, often combined with sorbate salts; check regulatory limits

Lapsana Communis Flower/Leaf/Stem Extract

Lapsana communis extract. Soothing conditioning. Follow manufacturer data for concentration.

Sea Salt

Sea salt for exfoliation/minerals; particle size matters, high ionic strength when dissolved, check compatibility.

CI 14700

Red azo dye restricted to hair dye products only; not for leave-on or general skin care
