Ingredients explained

Water

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

Butylene Glycol

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

Glycerin

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

Dipropylene Glycol

Solvent for essential oils; better humectancy than PEG

Glycereth-26

Glycereth-26, humectant/viscosity modifier at 1–5%; non-ionic water-soluble, boosts stability and feel.

Niacinamide

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

Pentylene Glycol

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

Methylpropanediol

Diol solvent and extraction carrier; enhances solubility of actives, low irritation profile.

Chondrus Crispus Extract

Carrageenan for thickening and moisturizing; seaweed-based, pH-sensitive

Saccharum Officinarum Extract

Sugarcane extract, mainly moisturizing and conditioning; use at low levels; prone to microbes, needs preservatives.

Sodium Hyaluronate

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

Cynanchum Atratum Extract

Cynanchum extract for conditioning; anti-inflammatory, check batch consistency

Althaea Rosea Flower Extract

Extract for soothing care; contains mucilage, check microbial load and clarity impact

Hyaluronic Acid

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

Camellia Japonica Flower Extract

Camellia extract for skin emollience; typically a minor conditioning ingredient.

Hibiscus Sabdariffa Flower Extract

Roselle flower extract rich in anthocyanins, used for skin conditioning and antioxidant support

Rosa Centifolia Flower Extract

Rosa centifolia flower extract, astringent and conditioning; limit concentration, cautious for sensitive skin

Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid

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

Beta Vulgaris Root Extract

Plant root extract used as a skin conditioning agent to improve skin texture and barrier function.

Collagen Extract

Hydrolyzed collagen for moisture and conditioning; forms surface film, low allergen risk

1,2-Hexanediol

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

Caprylyl Glycol

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

Polyglyceryl-10 Laurate

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

Propanediol

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

Ethylhexylglycerin

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

Adenosine

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

Tromethamine

pH adjuster, alkaline; precise dosing required

Tocopherol

Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light

Carbomer

Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility
