Ingredients explained

Aqua

Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical

Glycerin

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

Butylene Glycol

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

Coptis Chinensis Root Extract

Antioxidant/soothing herb; low concentration usage, yellow color, high dose may be irritating

1,2-Hexanediol

Polyol solvent and preservative booster at 1–5%; light feel, can replace some traditional preservatives

Propolis Extract

Propolis extract for antimicrobial care; complex composition, potential allergy risk.

Royal Jelly Extract

Royal jelly extract for skin conditioning; contains animal proteins, contraindicated for bee allergies

Hydrolyzed Elastin

Hydrolyzed elastin, moisturizer; MW determines penetration, large MW surface conditioning.

Hydrolyzed Collagen

Hydrolyzed protein for film-forming and moisture; molecular weight limits penetration, check source for shellfish allergies

Ethyl Hexanediol

Polyol solvent with humectant and mild preservative boost; low viscosity, compatible with many ingredients, gentle.

Piper Methysticum Leaf/Root/Stem Extract

Plant extract for skin conditioning; some claim soothing, test on sensitive skin.

Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil

Common in dry/damaged hair; superior penetration vs mineral oils, low comedogenic risk, poor oxidative stability.

Sodium Hyaluronate

Potent humectant at 0.1–2%; different MW for penetration depth, high levels may draw moisture

Ethylhexylglycerin

Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel

Carrageenan

Natural thickener/gelling agent from red algae; high concentrations may cause discomfort for sensitive individuals.

Potassium Chloride

Viscosity modifier for gels and shampoos; high concentrations may cause local stinging.

Ceratonia Siliqua Gum

Locust bean gum thickener/emulsifier; viscous at high levels, check batch consistency.

Sucrose

Sucrose, water-soluble thickener and humectant; high levels prone to hygroscopy.

Sodium Polyacrylate

Superabsorbent resin, <1%; gels with electrolytes, ionic strength control required.

Gellan Gum

Gellan gum; water-soluble polymer; gel former; high transparency, strong gelling, for aqueous phase stability.

Cellulose Gum

Cellulose gum, water-soluble thickener/stabilizer; may destabilize with cationics, hydrate first.

Xanthan Gum

Natural thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, pH-stable, requires full hydration

Allantoin

Skin soother at 0.5-2%; promotes cell regeneration

Calcium Lactate

Calcium lactate as chelator/buffer/astringent with keratolytic support; check pH and compatibility to avoid local irritation.

PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil

Non-ionic emulsifier and solubilizer at 1–5%; contains PEG, check acid compatibility and sensitive skin irritation

Mica

Mineral colorant for pearlescence; heavy metal screening required

Titanium Dioxide

Physical UV filter and colorant up to 25%; nano form requires attention

Tin Oxide

Inorganic mineral pigment providing opacity and suspension; requires skin safety assessment, typically used in sunscreens or powder colorants.

Ci 77491

Iron oxides red; physical pigment. Coloring and photo-protective, stable and non-irritating.

Chlorphenesin

Phenolic antimicrobial; strict EU limits apply, potential allergen, careful dosing required for leave-on products.

Caprylhydroxamic Acid

Chelating agent to stabilize metal ions; often paired with antioxidants for system stability, used at low levels

Propanediol

Polyol solvent at 1–5%; light feel, aids solubilization, propylene glycol alternative

Hexylene Glycol

Polyol solvent and humectant with penetration enhancement; limit concentration to avoid irritation, no specific allergen tag

Hydroxyacetophenone

Hydroxyacetophenone as antioxidant; often boosts Vitamin C, works in acidic pH.

Disodium EDTA

Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy

Aroma

Blended fragrance; may contain EU-listed allergens, check for sensitizers in sensitive individuals.
