Ingredients explained

Aqua

Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical

Propylene Glycol

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

Niacinamide

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

Salicylic Acid

Lipophilic BHA at 0.5-2%; exfoliant/sebum control, irritation/sensitization at high conc., photosensitivity (SPF needed), avoid sensitive/pregnant.

Artemisia Annua Extract

Artemisia annua extract used as a natural fragrance ingredient; may cause sensitivity.

Polyacrylate Crosspolymer-11

Not decoded yet

Amylopectin

Polysaccharide as binder and viscosity controller; starch-derived, no significant skin irritation

Xanthan Gum

Natural thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, pH-stable, requires full hydration

Dextrin

Polymer thickener and binder from starch fermentation; biodegradable, hygroscopic, may affect powder flow

Dimethyl Isosorbide

Dimethyl isosorbide as solvent and viscosity control; low toxicity, common use

PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate

PEG-modified nonionic surfactant for emulsification and cleansing; contains PEG, monitor dioxane, low comedogenicity.

Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract

Green tea extract for antioxidant/astringent; contains caffeine, possible irritation in sensitive skin.

Phenoxyethanol

Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin

Polyacrylamide

Film former and thickener for slip and feel; acrylamide monomer residue risk, strict QC required, restriction III/66

Menthyl Lactate

Menthyl lactate, cooling and fragrance agent, provides mild menthol sensation for refreshing

Fragrance

Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components

C13-14 Isoparaffin

Light hydrocarbon solvent providing emolliency and solubility; non-allergenic, note occlusive nature

Butylene Glycol

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

Citric Acid

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

Sodium Sulfite

Sulfite antioxidant to prevent oxidation; sulfites are known allergens and must be strictly declared on labels.

Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate

Water-soluble retinoate ester; gentler metabolism booster than retinol, stable, suitable for sensitive users at low levels

Ethylhexylglycerin

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

Laureth-7

Mild non-ionic surfactant for emulsification and solubilization; biodegradable

Sodium Metabisulfite

Antioxidant/preservative at 0.05–0.2%; irritating for sensitive skin, avoid with oxidizers

1,2-Hexanediol

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

Ceramide NP

Ceramide N3 for barrier repair; lipophilic, needs oil phase or emulsion, avoid high standalone use.

Glycolic Acid

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

PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil

Non-ionic emulsifier and solubilizer at 1–5%; contains PEG, check acid compatibility and sensitive skin irritation

Methylparaben

Preservative, narrow spectrum; often combined, check allergen risk and regulatory limits.

Ethylparaben

Paraben preservative; EU restricted, watch total load and sensitive skin reactions

Glyceryl Caprylate

Mild emulsifier/deodorant at 0.5-2%; polyol ester, high humectancy, low irritancy, check cationic surfactant compatibility.

Lactobacillus/Pear Juice Ferment Filtrate

Not decoded yet

O-Cymen-5-Ol

Antioxidant and antimicrobial; low levels for preservation; irritating at high concentrations, restricted use.

Phellodendron Amurense Bark Extract

Amur cork tree bark, alkaloid rich; mild irritant, control dosage, avoid strong acids.

Salix Alba Bark Extract

Contains natural salicylic acid precursors, mild exfoliating and antibacterial; may irritate at high levels; avoid in sensitive skin.

Rehmannia Chinensis Root Extract

Chinese herb extract used as a traditional tonic and skin conditioner.

Melia Azadirachta Leaf Extract

Plant extract, 0.1–1%; has antibacterial properties, allergy testing advised.

Scutellaria Baicalensis Root Extract

Scutellaria root extract with baicalin for antioxidant and soothing effects; also provides astringent and humectant properties.

Houttuynia Cordata Extract

Houttuynia cordata extract for anti-inflammatory and soothing effects; contains volatile oils, patch test recommended for sensitive skin.

Glycine Soja Seed Extract

Soybean extract for skin conditioning; low allergen risk, monitor batch protein variability.
