- Aqua
- Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical
- Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice
- Natural humectant and soother with high water activity; requires preservative system, generally well-tolerated
- Alcohol Denat
- Denatured ethanol; solvent, penetration enhancer, and quick-dry agent; high % may compromise barrier in dry skin.
- Dicaprylyl Ether
- Lightweight diester solvent and emollient, non-greasy feel; common oil phase carrier; low irritation.
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Isoamyl Laurate
