Ingredients explained
- Cyclopentasiloxane
- Cyclopentasiloxane for emollient/solvent; volatile silicone, smooth feel, check VOC regulations.
- Dimethicone Crosspolymer
- Crosslinked silicone polymer providing silkiness and viscosity control; for hair and skin; inert but hard to biodegrade.
- Pentaerythrityl Tetraisostearate
- Mild emulsifier and emollient with cleansing function; suitable for baby and sensitive skin, low irritancy.
- Heptyl Undecylenate
- Heptyl undecylenate, light emollient ester; fresh feel, non-greasy, low comedogenic risk
- Glycine Soja Oil
- Soybean oil emollient; prone to oxidation, needs antioxidants; suitable for dry skin
- Panthenyl Triacetate
- Panthenyl triacetate, antistatic and hair conditioning; hydrolyzes to panthenol
- Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1
- Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 for repair; requires lipid carrier, unstable in aqueous phase
- Palmitoyl Hexapeptide-12
- Peptide for elasticity; use per vendor specs. No public irritancy or comedogenic data.
- Naringenin
- Not decoded yet
- Oleuropein
- Olive-derived antioxidant phenol for hair conditioning and styling aid; good water solubility.
- Olea Europaea Leaf Extract
- Olive leaf extract with hydroxytyrosol; antioxidant and polyphenolic; mild fragrance and skin conditioning.
- Phosphatidylserine
- Phospholipid ingredient mimicking skin lipid barrier; used for emulsion stability and repair, monitor hydrolytic stability.
- Arnica Montana Extract
- Arnica extract for soothing and skin conditioning; may sensitize, avoid for sensitive or compromised skin
- Phospholipids
- Biomimetic repair and emollient, mimics skin lipids; typically processed at low temps, may be sticky at high levels
- Dunaliella Salina Extract
- Microalgal extract used as a skin conditioning agent for soothing and barrier support; no public irritancy or comedogenic data.
- Tocopherol
- Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light
- Ascorbyl Palmitate
- Ascorbyl palmitate, lipophilic Vit C ester, antioxidant; oxidizes, needs light/air protection.
- Squalane
- Emollient from plants or synthetic; light texture
- Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride
- Light occlusive and solvent at 1–10%; non-greasy feel, suitable for oily and combination skin
- Caprylyl Methicone
- Volatile silicone, fresh feel, does not absorb oil, used in foundations and cushions.
- Propylene Carbonate
- Inert solvent and viscosity modifier; often used as penetration enhancer, mild at low levels
- Stearalkonium Hectorite
- Inorganic clay gellant with silky feel; must disperse well, high local dose can irritate.
