Ingredients explained

Water

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

Glycolic Acid

Glycolic acid for exfoliation; requires buffering at concentrations >10%, avoid combination with other acids.

PPG-12/SMDI Copolymer

Film former, hair styling, volatile, dry touch, non-comedogenic.

Sodium Hydroxide

Strong base neutralizer for pH adjustment; handle with extreme care

Sclerotium Gum

Non-ionic gum for gels; neutral pH, requires dissolution via heating or fine milling

Avena Sativa Kernel Flour

Oat flour; physical exfoliant/absorbent; beta-glucan for soothing, control particle size.

Dicaprylyl maleate

Dicaprylyl maleate; light emollient, low comedogenic, often a solvent

Xanthophyll

Carotenoid pigment for coloring; light-sensitive, store protected from light, may discolor at high levels

Astaxanthin

Potent lipophilic antioxidant from algae; effective at trace levels (0.001-0.01%), prone to photodegradation, requires encapsulation or protection.

Beta Carotene

Not decoded yet

Zea mays oil

Corn oil; light emollient and stabilizer. Low comedogenic rating (1). Use at 2-5% as carrier.

Soybean Fiber

Not decoded yet

Punica Granatum Extract

Pomegranate extract containing polyphenols; offers antioxidant and skin-protecting properties, often used in brightening formulas.

Tocopheryl Acetate

Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light

Pollen extract

Pollen extract for skin protection and conditioning; high sensitization risk for pollen-allergic individuals.

Glycine Soja Oil Unsaponifiables

Not decoded yet

Olea Europaea Oil Unsaponifiables

Olive oil unsaponifiables; rich in squalene and vitamin E. Use at 1-2% for repair; stable.

Triticum Vulgare Germ Oil Unsaponifiables

Not decoded yet

Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate

Dipotassium glycyrrhizinate for moisturizing/soothing; inhibits 5-LOX, water-soluble, for sensitive skin.

Cetearyl Alcohol

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

Ceteareth-20

Not decoded yet

Ascorbic Acid

Vitamin C, potent antioxidant requiring acidic environment for stability; oxidizes and discolors easily, needs light and air protection, concentration 1-10%, pure L-ascorbic acid is more irritating.

Butylene Glycol

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

Chitosan

Chitosan film former and hair fixative; crustacean-derived, label as allergen, high concentrations may cause itching.

Propyl Gallate

Oil-soluble antioxidant for oil stability; mild skin irritant.

Zinc Gluconate

Chelated zinc salt with antimicrobial and deodorizing effects; used in antiperspirants and oral care; has EU concentration limit.

PEG-100 Stearate

Non-ionic emulsifier, requires ionics for stability; check PEG for formaldehyde.

Glyceryl Stearate

Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification

Sodium PCA

Sodium PCA, NMF component, 1-10% humectant; salty/tacky at high levels.

Proline

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

Sodium Lactate

Sodium lactate for moisturizing and exfoliation; pH buffering agent

Sorbitol

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

Disodium EDTA

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

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

Chlorphenesin

Phenolic antimicrobial; strict EU limits apply, potential allergen, careful dosing required for leave-on products.

Linalool

Natural fragrance component at ≤0.05%; one of EU 26 allergens, caution for sensitive skin

Lavandula Angustifolia Oil

Fragrance essential oil, 0.1–1%; contains allergens, patch test required.

Titanium Dioxide

Physical UV filter and colorant up to 25%; nano form requires attention
