Centella Asiatica Extract

Centella asiatica extract for soothing/repair; low irritation, common in sensitive skin products.

Oryza Sativa Bran Oil

Rice bran oil rich in oryzanol and linoleic acid for conditioning; moderate comedogenic rating, mind oxidative stability.

Sodium PCA

Sodium PCA, NMF component, 1-10% humectant; salty/tacky at high levels.

Glycerin

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

Polyglyceryl-6 Stearate

Gentle emulsifier suitable for sensitive skin; oil-soluble, often paired with others; non-comedogenic

Polyglyceryl-6 Behenate

Non-ionic emulsifier for stabilizing O/W systems; gentle.

Cucumis Sativus Seed Oil

Vegetable oil for softening and conditioning; rich in unsaturated fats, easily oxidizes.

Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil

Sunflower seed oil for emollient/occlusive; high linoleic acid, low comedogenicity.

Orbignya Oleifera Seed Oil

Baobab seed oil; highly saturated fat oil. Emollient and nourishing, rich feel, prone to frosting.

Camellia Sinensis Oil

Not decoded yet

Ribes Nigrum Seed Oil

Blackcurrant seed oil rich in GLA used as an emollient; high in unsaturated fats, prone to oxidation

Water

Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth

Rubus Idaeus Seed Oil

Raspberry seed oil; linoleic acid-rich emollient; oxidation-prone, requires antioxidants and light protection

Glyceryl Stearate

Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification

Leuconostoc/Radish Root Ferment Filtrate

Bio-fermented filtrate for antimicrobial and anti-dandruff effects; assess individual variability, avoid in known allergy.

Spilanthes Acmella Flower Extract

Spilanthol rich flower extract, used for soothing and antioxidant effects in repair formulas

Squalane

Emollient from plants or synthetic; light texture

Caffeine

Active ingredient, 0.1–2%; promotes circulation, irritation risk at high concentration.

Sodium Levulinate

Sodium levulinate, natural-derived humectant; generally mild, often used in blends.

Sodium Anisate

Benzoate-based preservative component; used in combinations for antimicrobial effect, slight fragrance, control concentration.

Arnica Montana Extract

Arnica extract for soothing and skin conditioning; may sensitize, avoid for sensitive or compromised skin

Sodium Hyaluronate

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

Propanediol

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

Ornithine

Amino acid derivative for keratolytic and humectant effects; used at low levels, minimal irritation

Phospholipids

Biomimetic repair and emollient, mimics skin lipids; typically processed at low temps, may be sticky at high levels

Glycolipids

Cell membrane lipids mimicking skin barrier structure; used in repair formulations and biomimetic membranes

Tocopherol

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

Lactic Acid

AHA pH adjuster at 0.5-5%; exfoliation/humectancy, mild at low conc., irritating at high, avoid conflict with alkaline preservatives.
