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
- Potassium Myristoyl Glutamate
- Mild amino acid surfactant, often paired with amphoteric agents, good foam, suitable for sensitive skin
- PEG-40
- Not decoded yet
- Lauramidopropyl Betaine
- Mild amphoteric surfactant for cleansing and foam boosting; potential allergen.
- Stearic Acid
- Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel
- 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.
- Lauramide Dea
- Cocamide DEA, foam booster/thickener; sensitizing, restricted in EU (≤0.3%); consider alternatives.
- Glycolic Acid
- Glycolic acid for exfoliation; requires buffering at concentrations >10%, avoid combination with other acids.
- Sodium Cocoamphoacetate
- Mild amphoteric surfactant at 0.5–5%; low irritation, suitable for sensitive skin, often paired with anionics.
- Lauric Acid
- Lauric acid for cleansing and emulsification; high comedogenic rating, recommend limiting to 1-2% or combining with other acids.
- Glycol Distearate
- Glycol distearate for thickening and emulsification; non-ionic, improves viscosity
- Hydroxyacetophenone
- Hydroxyacetophenone as antioxidant; often boosts Vitamin C, works in acidic pH.
- Potassium Hydroxide
- Strong alkali pH adjuster, trace usage (<0.1%); corrosive, must be neutralized.
- Salicylic Acid
- Lipophilic BHA at 0.5-2%; exfoliant/sebum control, irritation/sensitization at high conc., photosensitivity (SPF needed), avoid sensitive/pregnant.
- Citrus Paradisi Peel Oil
- Grapefruit peel oil for fragrance; contains phototoxic furanocoumarins, limit concentration, strict sun protection required
- Phytic Acid
- Natural chelator for formula stability; acidic, may shift pH at high levels.
- Moringa Pterygosperma Seed Extract
- Moringa seed extract rich in antioxidants and amino acids; used for skin conditioning, often added as a functional ingredient.
- Biosaccharide Gum-4
- Moisturizing film-former enhancing water retention; bio-fermented origin, low sensitization risk
- Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Fruit Oil
- Bergamot essential oil, natural fragrance and photosensitizer; limit daytime use or use FCF grade
