Ingredients explained
- Aqua (Water
- Primary solvent; requires preservatives at high concentration; adjust viscosity with thickeners
- Eau)
- Pure water, solvent and diluent; drinking water standard, no known allergens or irritation
- Sodium Laureth Sulfate
- Common anionic surfactant, strong foam but drying; check cationic compatibility, high eye irritation
- Lactic Acid
- AHA pH adjuster at 0.5-5%; exfoliation/humectancy, mild at low conc., irritating at high, avoid conflict with alkaline preservatives.
- Cocamidopropyl Betaine
- Cocamidopropyl betaine; zwitterionic co-surfactant reducing irritation and boosting foam, common in mild cleansers.
- PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate
- PEG-modified nonionic surfactant for emulsification and cleansing; contains PEG, monitor dioxane, low comedogenicity.
- PEG-120 Methyl Glucose Dioleate
- PEG-modified emulsifier; mild, low-foam. For O/W and anhydrous systems, check compatibility and viscosity.
- PEG-12 Dimethicone
- Water-soluble silicone; provides slip and gloss, easily emulsified, common in hair and skin care.
- Hydrolyzed Keratin
- Hydrolyzed keratin; small peptides; barrier repair, humectant, no pub comed data
- Steardimonium Hydroxypropyl Hydrolyzed Keratin
- Not decoded yet
- Panthenol
- Panthenol (vitamin B5) at 1–5%; moisturizing and reparative, supports barrier recovery
- Hydrolyzed Silk
- Hydrolyzed silk; amino acid-rich humectant for skin and hair; potential protein allergens for sensitive skin
- Calcium Hydroxide
- Not decoded yet
- Calcium Carbonate
- Mineral particle used as abrasive or white filler; particle size dictates feel, control pH for oral use
- Prunus Armeniaca Kernel Oil
- Plant oil for emollience and nutrition; contains proteins that may cause sensitivity, use caution in sensitive skin
- Disodium Cocoamphodiacetate
- Amphoteric surfactant for cleansing and foam boosting; milder than sulfates, low comedogenic risk.
- Parfum
- Fragrance for scent; may contain allergens, caution for sensitive skin, full labeling required.
- Sodium Benzoate
- Preservative booster, effective below pH 4.5; combinable with sorbates
- Sodium Chloride
- Salt for gel viscosity control; used as precipitant in soaps
- Glycol Distearate
- Glycol distearate for thickening and emulsification; non-ionic, improves viscosity
- Hydrogenated Castor Oil
- Hydrogenated castor oil for emollient, emulsifying, mild cleansing; ensure high purity
- Sodium Hydroxide
- Strong base neutralizer for pH adjustment; handle with extreme care
- Linalool
- Natural fragrance component at ≤0.05%; one of EU 26 allergens, caution for sensitive skin
- Benzyl Salicylate
- UV absorber/light stabilizer, restricted in EU; potential sensitizer, risk assessment needed.
- Hexyl Cinnamal
- Common fragrance component (jasmine/vanilla note); listed EU allergen, requires labeling at >10ppm (leave-on).
- Limonene
- Natural fragrance solvent, EU allergen; poor photostability
- Citronellol
- Citronellol for fragrance; EU 26 allergen, labeling required above 0.001%.
- Sodium Acetate
- Sodium acetate buffer for pH adjustment; sometimes acts as mild fragrance, common in lotions and washes
- Benzyl Alcohol
- Mild preservative/solvent at 0.5-1.0%; EU allergen (labeling required), irritation risk if concentrated, avoid in infant/highly sensitive skin.
- Potassium Sorbate
- Preservative effective below pH 6; combinable with sodium benzoate
- Methyl Benzoate
- Ester solvent and preservative booster with fragrance; mild irritant, respect limits.
- Propylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant at 3-10%; hygroscopic, slight tackiness, mild irritation at high conc., verify preservative efficacy, no allergen.
- Butylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Polyquaternium-10
- Cationic polymer for fabric or hair smoothness; generally low irritation but may conflict with other cationic actives
- Cocamide MEA
- Foam booster and thickener for cleansing products; 1-3%, check compatibility with anionic surfactants
- PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil
- Solubilizer and emulsifier for oil-soluble ingredients; high concentrations may cause contact dermatitis in sensitive skin.
- Laureth-4
- Not decoded yet
- Methylparaben
- Preservative, narrow spectrum; often combined, check allergen risk and regulatory limits.
- Propylparaben
- Medium-chain preservative; restricted use, pH-sensitive efficacy.
- Mica
- Mineral colorant for pearlescence; heavy metal screening required
- Ci 77891
- Titanium dioxide inorganic pigment and UV filter; assess inhalation risk for nano-forms and EU restrictions
- Ci 17200
- Acid Red 33 hair dye; restricted use, potential scalp irritation
