Formulation view An overnight mask with a water-based carbomer gel matrix containing niacinamide and hyaluronic acid. Plant oils and silicones ensure nocturnal hydration. Preserved with 2-hexanediol and ethylhexylglycerin. Suitable for enhancing night-time hydration. Formulators must ensure stable binding of non-ionic emulsifiers with polymers and evaluate fragrance tolerance in occlusive conditions.

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
- Methylpropanediol
- Diol solvent and extraction carrier; enhances solubility of actives, low irritation profile.
- Caprylyl Methicone
- Volatile silicone, fresh feel, does not absorb oil, used in foundations and cushions.
- Polyglyceryl-4 Oleate
- Non-ionic emulsifier derived from plant oils; gentle, used in O/W or W/O systems, low irritancy.
- 1
- Not decoded yet
- 2-Hexanediol
- 2-Hexanediol; branched-chain diol solvent and co-preservative, mild odor, weak humectant.
- Niacinamide
- Niacinamide at 2–5%; improves texture, controls oil, brightens; high levels may cause sensitivity
- Glyceryl Oleate
- Glyceride-based emulsifier and emolient with mild perfuming properties.
- Carbomer
- Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility
- Limnanthes Alba Seed Oil
- Lightweight natural oil with mineral oil-like feel; oxidizes easily, add antioxidants and control dose.
- Polysorbate 60
- Non-ionic emulsifier and solubilizer for O/W or W/O stability; may cause mild stinging on sensitive skin, typically 1-5%.
- Tromethamine
- pH adjuster, alkaline; precise dosing required
- Hydrogenated Rapeseed Alcohol
- Not decoded yet
- Ethylhexylglycerin
- Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel
- Sodium Hyaluronate
- Potent humectant at 0.1–2%; different MW for penetration depth, high levels may draw moisture
- Sodium Phytate
- Chelating agent stabilizes metal ions to prevent oxidative degradation; also used in oral care, high safety profile.
- Dextrin
- Polymer thickener and binder from starch fermentation; biodegradable, hygroscopic, may affect powder flow
- Butyrospermum Parkii Butter
- Shea butter for occlusive moisturizing; high melt point, rich texture, caution for oily skin.
- Gardenia Florida Fruit Extract
- Extract for color and conditioning; watch dark batches in clear systems
- Butylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel
- Opuntia Ficus-Indica Extract
- Prickly pear fruit extract used for hydration and antioxidants; verify extraction source to avoid staining
- Phellinus Linteus Extract
- Phellinus linteus polysaccharide at 0.1–0.5% in water phase; boosts hydration, low allergenicity
- Fragrance
- Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components
