Ingredients explained

Aqua/Water/Eau

Water as solvent/base; main ingredient, microbial control needed, paired with preservatives.

Magnesium Laureth Sulfate

Magnesium salt surfactant, stronger cleansing than sodium salts, good for hard-water areas; may feel stripping, pair with conditioners.

Methylpropanediol

Diol solvent and extraction carrier; enhances solubility of actives, low irritation profile.

Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate

Mild anionic surfactant for cleansing and emulsification; 1-5%, suitable for sensitive skin

Sodium Cocoamphoacetate

Mild amphoteric surfactant at 0.5–5%; low irritation, suitable for sensitive skin, often paired with anionics.

Glycerin

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

Propanediol

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

Coco-Glucoside

Mild non-ionic surfactant for cleansing and foaming; rich foam, low irritation, suitable for sensitive and children's products

Glyceryl Oleate

Glyceride-based emulsifier and emolient with mild perfuming properties.

PEG-90 Glyceryl Isostearate

Not decoded yet

Styrene/Acrylates Copolymer

Film former and opacifier for powder makeup; some batches contain sensitizing monomers.

Zinc Gluconate

Chelated zinc salt with antimicrobial and deodorizing effects; used in antiperspirants and oral care; has EU concentration limit.

Citric Acid

Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH

Fragrance

Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components

Disodium EDTA

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

Benzoic Acid

Preservative and pH adjuster at 0.1–0.5%; low water solubility, best in acidic media, irritant at high levels.

Xylitol

Polyol humectant, sweet taste; water-soluble, high hygroscopy, excess draws moisture.

Mannitol

Polyol humectant with binding/skin conditioning properties; high levels may cause osmotic irritation

Laureth-2

Not decoded yet

Rhamnose

Polysaccharide humectant for hydration; used at low levels, mild flavor aid.

Xylitylglucoside

Polyol humectant with high water absorption and fresh feel; often co-used with propylene glycol for enhanced hydration.

Anhydroxylitol

Anhydrous xylitol, potent humectant; high hygroscopicity may cause stickiness at high levels.

Niacinamide

Niacinamide at 2–5%; improves texture, controls oil, brightens; high levels may cause sensitivity

Glucose

Low-MW humectant and buffer; high hygroscopicity requires careful preservation and humidity control.

Fructooligosaccharides

Prebiotic polysaccharide for hydration/skin conditioning; high levels may feel sticky

Tocopherol

Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light

Hydrogenated Palm Glycerides Citrate

Hydrogenated palm glycerides citrate emollient for smoothness and richness.

Lecithin

Phospholipid emulsifier at 1-5%; biocompatible, moisturizing/antioxidant, prone to oxidation (add TBHQ), mild for sensitive skin.

Ascorbyl Palmitate

Ascorbyl palmitate, lipophilic Vit C ester, antioxidant; oxidizes, needs light/air protection.
