Formulation view Water-based gel system thickened with carbomer, combined with dimethicone for smoothness. Features multi-weight hyaluronic acid, adenosine, and various bacterial ferments for enhanced hydration. Lightweight texture suitable for the delicate eye area. Formulator note: Uses 1,2-hexanediol and ethylhexylglycerin as a preservative booster, avoiding parabens for eye safety. Multiple ferment lysates may increase viscosity, requiring balance between active payload and slip.

Ingredients explained

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

Butylene Glycol

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

1,2-Hexanediol

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

Betaine

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

Cetearyl Alcohol

Fatty alcohol emulsifier at 1-5%; non-ionic surfactant

Dimethicone

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

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

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

Butylene Glycol Dicaprylate/Dicaprate

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

Glyceryl Stearate

Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification

PEG-100 Stearate

Non-ionic emulsifier, requires ionics for stability; check PEG for formaldehyde.

Squalane

Emollient from plants or synthetic; light texture

Sorbitan Stearate

Non-ionic emulsifier for O/W systems; hydrophobic, requires co-emulsifiers, inert at high purity

Bakuchiol

Bakuchiol; antioxidant and conditioning. Often an A-alternative, prone to oxidation and color shift, needs stabilization.

Carbomer

Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility

Palmitic Acid

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

Tromethamine

pH adjuster, alkaline; precise dosing required

Stearic Acid

Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel

Fragrance/Parfum

Fragrance mixture for odor; complex composition with potential allergens, use with caution in sensitive or children's products.

Adenosine

Skin conditioner at 0.1-1%; used for anti-aging and repair

Sodium Hyaluronate

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

Disodium EDTA

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

Myristic Acid

Saturated fatty acid, saponification feedstock; insoluble alone, pairs with stearic acid.

Glyceryl Glucoside

Polyol humectant with light, non-sticky feel; less tacky than glycerin

Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil

Common in dry/damaged hair; superior penetration vs mineral oils, low comedogenic risk, poor oxidative stability.

Selaginella Lepidophylla Extract

Extraction of Selaginella; diterpenoid esters for antioxidant care, trace additive

Avena Sativa Kernel Oil

Oat kernel oil for skin conditioning; moisturizing, sensitive skin friendly

Bacillus Ferment

Bacillus ferment extract; skin conditioner with peptides; verify sterile specs and endotoxin levels

Caprylyl Glycol

Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol

Lactobacillus Ferment Lysate

Lactobacillus ferment lysate for skin conditioning; provides soothing and hydration, low sensitization risk if sterile.

Leuconostoc/Radish Root Ferment Filtrate

Bio-fermented filtrate for antimicrobial and anti-dandruff effects; assess individual variability, avoid in known allergy.

Lactococcus Ferment Lysate

Lactococcus lysate; provides amino acids and polysaccharides for moisture, fermentation reduces allergens.

Bifida Ferment Lysate

Bifida lysate for skin conditioning; low usage, suits sensitive skin

Streptococcus Thermophilus Ferment

Lactic acid and peptide ferment; moisturizing and microbiome balancing, check pH stability.

Bifida Ferment Filtrate

Ferment filtrate with prebiotics/metabolites for conditioning; high sterility requirements.

Disodium Phosphate

Phosphate buffer for pH adjustment and preservation; water-soluble; high levels may irritate mucous membranes.

Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer

Crosslinked high-MW HA; forms surface hydrogel for long-lasting hydration, minimal penetration, physical film-forming.

Potassium Hyaluronate

Hyaluronic salt, excellent humectant; efficacy varies with MW, best with occlusive base

Hyaluronic Acid

High-water-binding humectant at 0.1-1%; high-MW for surface film, low-MW for dermal potential, check cationic compatibility.

Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid

Low-MW humectant with superior penetration vs high-MW; 0.1-0.5% typical, hygroscopic, store dry to prevent clumping.

Hydroxypropyltrimonium Hyaluronate

Cationic hyaluronic acid, 0.1–1%; water-soluble thickener and conditioning agent.

Hydrolyzed Sodium Hyaluronate

Low-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid derivative with better penetration and strong hydration; different molecular weights provide hydration at various depths, typical concentration 0.1-1%.

Monosodium Citrate

Not decoded yet

Pentylene Glycol

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

Sodium Acetylated Hyaluronate

Acetylated HA; modified for hydrophobicity, improved penetration and non-tacky feel compared to standard HA.
