Ingredients explained
- Aqua
- Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical
- Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract
- Aloe vera leaf extract for soothing and humectant; monitor polysaccharide level and endotoxins
- Anthemis Nobilis Flower Extract
- Chamomile extract used for soothing; check for potential sensitizing allergens.
- Dunaliella Salina Extract
- Microalgal extract used as a skin conditioning agent for soothing and barrier support; no public irritancy or comedogenic data.
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Maris Sal
- Natural mineral skin conditioner for exfoliation or soothing; high concentrations (>5%) may cause dryness due to osmotic pressure.
- Carbomer
- Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility
- Triethanolamine
- Triethanolamine for buffering; restricted, limit concentration to avoid high pH and irritation
- Centella Asiatica Extract
- Centella asiatica extract for soothing/repair; low irritation, common in sensitive skin products.
- Tocopheryl Acetate
- Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light
- Allantoin
- Skin soother at 0.5-2%; promotes cell regeneration
- Fragrance
- Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components
- Chlorphenesin
- Phenolic antimicrobial; strict EU limits apply, potential allergen, careful dosing required for leave-on products.
- Hexyl Cinnamal
- Common fragrance component (jasmine/vanilla note); listed EU allergen, requires labeling at >10ppm (leave-on).
- Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil
- Jojoba oil rich in unsaturated fats; good penetration, non-comedogenic, prone to oxidation requiring antioxidants
- Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil
- Common in dry/damaged hair; superior penetration vs mineral oils, low comedogenic risk, poor oxidative stability.
- Dimethicone
- Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin
- Butylphenyl Methylpropional
- Synthetic fragrance with floral notes; EU regulations limit usage, strict monitoring required.
- BHT
- Lipophilic antioxidant at 0.01-0.05%; ineffective with acidic systems, label-sensitive, check regulatory limits as preservative alternative.
- Benzyl Salicylate
- UV absorber/light stabilizer, restricted in EU; potential sensitizer, risk assessment needed.
- Citronellol
- Citronellol for fragrance; EU 26 allergen, labeling required above 0.001%.
- Lactic Acid
- AHA pH adjuster at 0.5-5%; exfoliation/humectancy, mild at low conc., irritating at high, avoid conflict with alkaline preservatives.
- Ascorbic Acid
- Vitamin C, potent antioxidant requiring acidic environment for stability; oxidizes and discolors easily, needs light and air protection, concentration 1-10%, pure L-ascorbic acid is more irritating.
- Retinol
- Highly active and unstable, needs robust antioxidant encapsulation; 0.1-1.0%, pregnancy contraindicated
