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

Acrylates Copolymer

Acrylate synthetic polymer for film forming and antistatic; breathable film, control dosage carefully

Betaine

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

Methylpropanediol

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

Niacinamide

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

Chondrus Crispus Powder

Seaweed powder for gentle physical exfoliation; absorbs water; for scrubs and care, no chemical irritation.

1,2-Hexanediol

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

Lactobacillus Ferment

Probiotic ferment filtrate for conditioning; complex mix, check allergens and preservative residues

Collagen

Hydrating conditioning agent; soluble protein used in hair care and toners; forms occlusive layer.

Collagen Extract

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

Soluble Collagen

Water-soluble collagen for hydration, film-forming, hair care; MW affects permeation/film

Sodium Dna

Water-soluble polymer for hydration and film feel; often claimed for repair support

Adenosine

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

Hydrolyzed Glycosaminoglycans

Hydrolyzed GAGs for hydration/conditioning; low MW, good penetration, low irritancy.

Hydrolyzed Elastin

Hydrolyzed elastin, moisturizer; MW determines penetration, large MW surface conditioning.

Glycogen

Animal-derived polysaccharide humectant; 1–5% for skin feel and softness, verify source and purity, low allergy risk.

Dipalmitoyl Hydroxyproline

Lipid peptide for skin conditioning; mimics ceramide function for barrier repair, prone to crystallization

Sodium Hyaluronate

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

Allantoin

Skin soother at 0.5-2%; promotes cell regeneration

Panthenol

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

Carnosine

Dipeptide skin conditioner with antioxidant and buffering properties; used in synergy with other actives.

Beta-Glucan

Polysaccharide for soothing and hydration; high MW acts on the surface, poor penetration into deep dermis.

Acetyl Hexapeptide-8

Acetyl hexapeptide-8; signal peptide, low concentration, used for firming and hydration, low irritancy.

Ascorbic Acid Polypeptide

Acetyl Octapeptide-3

Not decoded yet

Acetyl Tetrapeptide-2

Matrixyl; stimulates ECM synthesis for firming/repair, requires adequate dosage.

Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3

Not decoded yet

Acetyl Tetrapeptide-5

Acetyl tetrapeptide-5, a moisturizing peptide that enhances skin hydration via hydrolysis, typically mild, used to improve dryness

Acetyl Tetrapeptide-9

Not decoded yet

Copper Tripeptide-1

Copper Tripeptide-1 (GHK-Cu) for repair/anti-aging at 0.01–0.1%; water-soluble, avoid chelators.

Nonapeptide-1

Nonapeptide-1 for hair/skin conditioning; enhances shine and strength, low irritation.

Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4

Signal peptide promoting collagen synthesis; effective at low concentration, needs penetration enhancers or encapsulation

Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1

Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 for repair; requires lipid carrier, unstable in aqueous phase

Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5

Peptide actives for skin conditioning; typically used at low levels.

Ceratonia Siliqua Gum

Locust bean gum thickener/emulsifier; viscous at high levels, check batch consistency.

Hydroxyacetophenone

Hydroxyacetophenone as antioxidant; often boosts Vitamin C, works in acidic pH.

Gellan Gum

Gellan gum; water-soluble polymer; gel former; high transparency, strong gelling, for aqueous phase stability.

Cyamopsis Tetragonoloba Gum

Guar gum, natural thickener/stabiliser at 0.5–2%; biodegradable, dry film may feel astringent

Potassium Chloride

Viscosity modifier for gels and shampoos; high concentrations may cause local stinging.

Cellulose Gum

Cellulose gum, water-soluble thickener/stabilizer; may destabilize with cationics, hydrate first.

Sucrose

Sucrose, water-soluble thickener and humectant; high levels prone to hygroscopy.

Butylene Glycol

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

Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate

Dipotassium glycyrrhizinate for moisturizing/soothing; inhibits 5-LOX, water-soluble, for sensitive skin.

Ethylhexylglycerin

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

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

Cyanocobalamin

Vitamin B12 derivative, antioxidant and skin conditioning; light-sensitive, requires light-protective packaging, water-soluble

Arginine

Arginine for moisturizing/conditioning; amino acid, high biocompatibility, often used in blends.

Fructooligosaccharides

Prebiotic polysaccharide for hydration/skin conditioning; high levels may feel sticky

Fructan

Prebiotic humectant, 0.5–2%; modulates microflora, very low comedogenicity

Inulin

Plant fiber/prebiotic for moisturizing; fully dissolve to avoid crystallization
