Ingredients explained

Propanediol

Polyol solvent at 1–5%; light feel, aids solubilization, propylene glycol alternative

Glycerin

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

Squalane

Emollient from plants or synthetic; light texture

Butylene Glycol

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

Butylene glycol dicaprylate/dicaprate

Light diester emollient, light and non-greasy; often used as solvent; oxidizes easily, needs antioxidants.

Saururus Chinensis Extract

Botanical extract used as a skin conditioning agent

Trehalose

Trehalose; mild humectant and stabilizer for proteins/actives; hygroscopic, light skin feel.

Panthenol

Panthenol (vitamin B5) at 1–5%; moisturizing and reparative, supports barrier recovery

Raffinose

Oligosaccharide humectant at 1–5%; improves feel and supports conditioning; low irritation, compatible with most systems.

C12-16 alcohols

Fatty alcohol mix for conditioning and stability; very low comedogenicity, enhances feel.

Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer

High-molecular-weight thickener and emulsion stabilizer; requires electrolytes or acid adjustment near isoelectric point for optimal performance.

Dimethicone

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

Acrylates/C10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer

Crosspolymer for thickening/film; needs neutralization to pH 7-8 to hydrate, check ion strength.

Hydrogenated lecithin

Emulsifier from lecithin; stable, used in powder emulsions

Glyceryl caprylate

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

Polysorbate 20

Non-ionic emulsifier and cleansing surfactant; contains PEG, control microbial load.

Xanthan Gum

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

Palmitic Acid

Palmitic acid for emulsification/emollient; solid fat, high melting point, occlusive.

Tromethamine

pH adjuster, alkaline; precise dosing required

Ethylhexylglycerin

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

Alcohol

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

Sodium methyl stearoyl taurate

Mild anionic surfactant, easy to rinse, low irritation; often blended for foam stability in gentle cleansers

Disodium EDTA

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

Fragrance

Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components
