Water

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

Glycerin

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

Alcohol

Ethanol for solubility/drying at 5-15%; high conc. is drying/irritating, avoid lip/eye, low residue, balance with humectants.

Cetyl Ethylhexanoate

Synthetic oil providing slip; large molecule, low penetration, non-comedogenic, suitable for dry or rough skin.

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

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

Niacinamide

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

Betaine

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

Limnanthes Alba Seed Oil

Lightweight natural oil with mineral oil-like feel; oxidizes easily, add antioxidants and control dose.

Arachidyl Alcohol

Waxy emulsion stabilizer and thickener, often paired with cetearyl alcohol; heavy feel, good for creams

Acetyl Hexapeptide-8

Acetyl hexapeptide-8; signal peptide, low concentration, used for firming and hydration, low irritancy.

Copper Tripeptide-1

Copper Tripeptide-1 (GHK-Cu) for repair/anti-aging at 0.01–0.1%; water-soluble, avoid chelators.

Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4

Signal peptide promoting collagen synthesis; effective at low concentration, needs penetration enhancers or encapsulation

Hexapeptide-9

Hexapeptide-9 (Acetyl Hexapeptide); signal peptide for fibroblast stimulation, typically used at 0.5-1%.

Behenyl Alcohol

Polyglyceryl-10 Laurate

Mild non-ionic emulsifier for O/W systems; cetyl ester structure may irritate sensitive skin, use at 0.5-3%.

Arachidyl Glucoside

1,2-Hexanediol

Polyol solvent and preservative booster at 1–5%; light feel, can replace some traditional preservatives

Butylene Glycol

Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel

Arginine

Arginine for moisturizing/conditioning; amino acid, high biocompatibility, often used in blends.

Hydroxyacetophenone

Hydroxyacetophenone as antioxidant; often boosts Vitamin C, works in acidic pH.

Carbomer

Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility

Allantoin

Skin soother at 0.5-2%; promotes cell regeneration

Glucose

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

Xanthan Gum
