Ingredients explained

Water/Eau

Water as base solvent; no irritation, but requires preservatives to prevent microbial growth.

Glycerin

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

Dimethicone

Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin

Propylene Glycol

Polyol humectant at 3-10%; hygroscopic, slight tackiness, mild irritation at high conc., verify preservative efficacy, no allergen.

Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltaurate/VP Copolymer

Cationic polymer providing suspension, thickening, and conditioning; often paired with anionic thickening systems, low usage, imparts slip.

Bis-PEG/PPG-16/16 PEG/PPG-16/16 Dimethicone

Modified silicone emulsifier/surfactant for silky feel and oil emulsification; contains PEG/PPG, caution for sensitive skin, non-comedogenic.

Pentylene Glycol

Polyol humectant at 1-3%; low irritancy, suitable for sensitive skin

Decyl Glucoside

Mild alkyl glucoside, biodegradable; foam stabilizer, thickens with fatty alcohols, low allergenicity.

Fragrance

Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components

PVP

Polyvinylpyrrolidone for film forming and thickening; used in styling and adhesion, occasional eye irritation reported.

Triethanolamine

Triethanolamine for buffering; restricted, limit concentration to avoid high pH and irritation

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

Light occlusive and solvent at 1–10%; non-greasy feel, suitable for oily and combination skin

Lactic Acid

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

Sodium Polystyrene Sulfonate

Sodium polystyrene sulfonate, water-soluble polymer for thickening and emulsion stability; ion-tolerant

Tocopheryl Acetate

Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light

Glyceryl Acrylate/Acrylic Acid Copolymer

Acrylate copolymer for thickening and moisturizing; synthetic polymer with low sensitization risk.

Betaine

Betaine for mild moisturizing/surfactant; low concentration 1-2% common, high may irritate.

Diisostearyl Malate

Diisostearyl malate; lightweight emollient and emulsifier; non-greasy feel, biodegradable, used in premium systems.

Titanium Dioxide

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

Glycolic Acid

Glycolic acid for exfoliation; requires buffering at concentrations >10%, avoid combination with other acids.

Sorghum Bicolor Leaf/Stem Extract

Not decoded yet

Disodium EDTA

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

Pectin

Natural polysaccharide binder/stabilizer for gels; incompatible with cationics

Citric Acid

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

Menthol

Cooling and soothing agent at 0.5–2%; high levels may cause sensitivity or irritation, use caution around eyes and mucous membranes

Sucrose

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

Ethylhexylglycerin

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

Capryloyl Glycine

Functional surfactant with seborrhea-control properties; suited for oily or acne-prone skin.

Eucalyptus Globulus Leaf Oil

Eucalyptus leaf oil, strong essential oil; high irritation, strictly limited usage

Mentha Arvensis Leaf Oil

Botanical essential oil for fragrance; contains allergenic constituents, sensitive to reactive skin.

Sodium Hyaluronate

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

Malic Acid

AHA for pH buffering; mild at low conc, risk at high, control pH & total acidity

Tartaric Acid

Small-molecule organic acid used as buffer and antioxidant; highly irritating at high levels, caution for sensitive skin

Potassium Sorbate

Preservative effective below pH 6; combinable with sodium benzoate

Sodium Benzoate

Preservative booster, effective below pH 4.5; combinable with sorbates

Pentaerythrityl Tetra-Di-T-Butyl Hydroxyhydrocinnamate

High-efficiency lipid-soluble antioxidant preventing oil rancidity; very low usage, typically 0.05-0.1%, ensure even distribution, avoid metal-catalyzed oxidation.
