Formulation view An O/W emulsion using a stearic acid and glycerol stearate system for a smooth, thick texture. It includes a rich lipid base and botanicals for skin repair and soothing, with fine powder accents. From a manufacturing perspective, the high fat and stearic acid profile demands precise emulsification temperature and shear to prevent soap formation or crystallization. The powder must be finely milled to ensure a seamless, non-gritty application.

Ingredients explained
- Aqua
- Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical
- Isopropyl Myristate
- Light synthetic ester, fast-drying and non-greasy; high comedogenic risk, limit in acne-prone skin
- Hydrogenated Palm Oil
- Emollient, emulsifier, and viscosity regulator; provides waxy structure, high levels may feel heavy.
- Stearic Acid
- Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Aesculus Hippocastanum Extract
- Astringent/antioxidant for eye/sensitive formulas; contains saponins, use at 0.1–1% to avoid irritation.
- Glyceryl Stearate
- Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification
- Aloe Barbadensis Extract
- Standardized aloe extract. Soothing and moisturizing; verify anthraquinone (allergen) removal. High purity usually well-tolerated.
- Sodium Hyaluronate
- Potent humectant at 0.1–2%; different MW for penetration depth, high levels may draw moisture
- Benzyl Alcohol
- Mild preservative/solvent at 0.5-1.0%; EU allergen (labeling required), irritation risk if concentrated, avoid in infant/highly sensitive skin.
- Glycyrrhiza Glabra Root Extract
- Liquorice root extract for soothing and brightening; batch variability, watch polyphenol interactions
- Prunus Armeniaca Kernel Oil
- Plant oil for emollience and nutrition; contains proteins that may cause sensitivity, use caution in sensitive skin
- Polysorbate 20
- Non-ionic emulsifier and cleansing surfactant; contains PEG, control microbial load.
- Sodium Hydroxide
- Strong base neutralizer for pH adjustment; handle with extreme care
- Xanthan Gum
- Natural thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, pH-stable, requires full hydration
- Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate
- Vitamin C derivative antioxidant at 0.5–2%; light-sensitive, requires opaque packaging
- Vitis Vinifera Seed Oil
- Grapeseed oil, lightweight emollient and antioxidant; high linoleic acid, suitable for oily and combination skin.
- Retinyl Palmitate
- Vitamin A ester for skin conditioning; light-sensitive, requires protection, avoid in pregnancy.
- Tocopherol
- Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light
- Linoleic Acid
- Essential fatty acid for barrier repair and hydration; oxidizes easily, high levels may be comedogenic
- Centella Asiatica Extract
- Centella asiatica extract for soothing/repair; low irritation, common in sensitive skin products.
- Acetyl Cysteine
- Cysteine derivative antioxidant and conditioner; check pH and metal ion compatibility.
- Diamond Powder
- Diamond powder as abrasive; high hardness, check particle uniformity
- Parfum
- Fragrance for scent; may contain allergens, caution for sensitive skin, full labeling required.
