Ingredients explained

Water

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

Isononyl Isononanoate

Light, low-viscosity ester emollient; excellent spreadability, good for gels and light lotions

Glycerin

Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives

Ethylhexyl Palmitate

Synthetic ester emollient with light skin feel; small molecule, slightly comedogenic, use cautiously for acne-prone skin, often blended with other oils.

Cyclomethicone

Volatile silicone for light feel; contains D4 restricted by EU, must be <0.1% after 2026

Diglycerin

Diglycerin humectant and conditioner; low viscosity suitable for liquid formulas, very low irritancy.

PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate

PEG-modified nonionic surfactant for emulsification and cleansing; contains PEG, monitor dioxane, low comedogenicity.

Butylene Glycol

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

PEG-20 Glyceryl Triisostearate

Non-ionic emulsifier; PEG-based; prone to oil contamination.

Acrylates/C10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer

Crosspolymer for thickening/film; needs neutralization to pH 7-8 to hydrate, check ion strength.

Phytosteryl/Octyldodecyl Lauroyl Glutamate

Phytosterol blend for skin conditioning; gentle, barrier-repairing, low irritation.

Phenoxyethanol

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

Sodium Hydroxide

Strong base neutralizer for pH adjustment; handle with extreme care

Sodium stearoyl glutamate

Mild amino-acid surfactant, poor solubility, pairs with fatty alcohols, fine foam.

Tocopheryl Acetate

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

Cyclopentasiloxane

Cyclopentasiloxane for emollient/solvent; volatile silicone, smooth feel, check VOC regulations.

Leucine

Amino acid for antistatic and skin/hair conditioning; used at low concentrations.

Serine

Humectant amino acid, 1–3%; high water solubility, compatible with sensitive skin.

Glycine

Humectant amino acid, 1–3%; small molecule, low irritation.

Pentasodium pentetate

Gentle chelator replacing EDTA; prevents oxidation discoloration, low dosage

Alanine

Amino acid for antistatic and conditioning; low irritation, slight salty taste at high levels

Arginine

Arginine for moisturizing/conditioning; amino acid, high biocompatibility, often used in blends.

Threonine

Threonine, essential amino acid for hair/skin; blended with other AAs for balance.

Valine

Amino acid humectant, common in amino acid cleansers and sprays; mild, suitable for all skin types

Histidine

Amino acid humectant and antistatic agent; pH-dependent behavior, consider buffering in formulation.

Carnosine

Dipeptide skin conditioner with antioxidant and buffering properties; used in synergy with other actives.

Proline

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

Lysine HCL

Lysine HCl, amino acid for hair and skin conditioning, reduces protein loss
