Ingredients explained
- Aqua
- Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Myristic acid
- Saturated fatty acid, saponification feedstock; insoluble alone, pairs with stearic acid.
- Lauric Acid
- Lauric acid for cleansing and emulsification; high comedogenic rating, recommend limiting to 1-2% or combining with other acids.
- Potassium Hydroxide
- Strong alkali pH adjuster, trace usage (<0.1%); corrosive, must be neutralized.
- PEG-8
- Not decoded yet
- Acrylates Copolymer
- Acrylate synthetic polymer for film forming and antistatic; breathable film, control dosage carefully
- Stearic Acid
- Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel
- Butylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel
- Glyceryl Stearate
- Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification
- Polyquaternium-7
- Not decoded yet
- Potassium Cocoyl Glycinate
- Amino acid surfactant for mild cleansing; fine foam, low irritation, suitable for sensitive and baby products
- Cocamidopropyl Betaine
- Cocamidopropyl betaine; zwitterionic co-surfactant reducing irritation and boosting foam, common in mild cleansers.
- Potassium cocoate
- Soap-type anionic surfactant for cleansing and emulsifying; watch pH and skin tolerance.
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Fragrance
- Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components
- Sodium chloride
- Salt for gel viscosity control; used as precipitant in soaps
- Allantoin
- Skin soother at 0.5-2%; promotes cell regeneration
- Disodium EDTA
- Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy
- Kaolin
- Kaolin absorbent and bulk for powders/masks; check for heavy metals and comply with EU colorant limits IV/119
- Niacinamide
- Niacinamide at 2–5%; improves texture, controls oil, brightens; high levels may cause sensitivity
- Ethylhexylglycerin
- Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel
- Propylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant at 3-10%; hygroscopic, slight tackiness, mild irritation at high conc., verify preservative efficacy, no allergen.
- Glycyrrhiza Glabra Root Extract
- Liquorice root extract for soothing and brightening; batch variability, watch polyphenol interactions
- Actinidia Polygama Fruit Extract
- Not decoded yet
