- Stearic Acid
- Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel
- Glyceryl Stearate
- Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification
- Cetyl Alcohol
- Cetyl alcohol for emulsification/thickening; high concentration >10% may irritate.
- Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice
- Natural humectant and soother with high water activity; requires preservative system, generally well-tolerated
- Salix Alba Bark Extract
- Contains natural salicylic acid precursors, mild exfoliating and antibacterial; may irritate at high levels; avoid in sensitive skin.
- Saccharina Longicruris Extract
- Kelp extract; humectant/repair; high polysaccharides; monitor salt load in formula.
- Camellia Oleifera Leaf Extract
- Camellia oleifera leaf extract containing tea polyphenols; acts as astringent and skin conditioner, monitor raw material consistency.
- Passiflora Incarnata Fruit Extract
- Passion fruit extract; claimed for skin conditioning/protection; botanical extract requiring screening for impurities.
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- PEG-40 Stearate
- Water-soluble emulsifier for O/W; mild cleansing, high levels may be comedogenic, caution for sensitive skin.
- Carbomer
- Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility
- Sorbitan Tristearate
- Non-ionic emulsifier for lotions; pairs with water-soluble surfactants.
- Sodium Hydroxide
- Strong base neutralizer for pH adjustment; handle with extreme care
- Fragrance
- Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components
- Tetrasodium EDTA
- Chelator removing metal ions to enhance antioxidant and preservative efficacy; very low usage, typically 0.05-0.1%, no direct skincare function.
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Betaine

- Sorbitol
- Polyol humectant with strong hygroscopy; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives; also a solvent or adjuster.
- Serine
- Humectant amino acid, 1–3%; high water solubility, compatible with sensitive skin.
- Glycine
- Humectant amino acid, 1–3%; small molecule, low irritation.
- Glutamic Acid
- Glutamic acid, non-essential amino acid humectant; high levels can be astringent, buffer needed.
- Lysine
- Amino acid conditioner for anti-static hair care; low irritation at typical cosmetic concentrations.
- Alanine
- Amino acid for antistatic and conditioning; low irritation, slight salty taste at high levels
- Arginine
- Arginine for moisturizing/conditioning; amino acid, high biocompatibility, often used in blends.
- Threonine
