Highlights

Free of alcoholFree of fragranceFree of parabensFree of siliconesFree of sulfatesFree of mineral oilFree of formaldehyde releasersContains essential oilsContains EU-26 allergens

Formulation view Emulsion serum with oil-soluble VC derivative and babassu oil. Contains phytosterols and plant extracts. Suitable for mature skin seeking antioxidant benefits. Factory view: VC esters offer better stability than pure VC, but complex system needs diverse humectants and emulsifiers to maintain texture and activity.

Ingredients explained

Water/Aqua/Eau

Primary aqueous solvent and carrier; no specific incompatibilities, focus on microbial stability.

Diisostearyl Malate

Diisostearyl malate; lightweight emollient and emulsifier; non-greasy feel, biodegradable, used in premium systems.

Pentaerythrityl Tetraisostearate

Mild emulsifier and emollient with cleansing function; suitable for baby and sensitive skin, low irritancy.

Pentylene Glycol

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

Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate

Vitamin C ester antioxidant; more stable than ascorbic acid but still light-sensitive.

Orbignya Oleifera Seed Oil

Baobab seed oil; highly saturated fat oil. Emollient and nourishing, rich feel, prone to frosting.

Phytosterols

Plant sterol mix for skin barrier repair and soothing; plant-derived, no reported sensitization.

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

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

3-Glyceryl Ascorbate

Oil-soluble Vitamin C derivative, stable in oil phases for antioxidant and brightening effects. Avoid high pH; more light-stable than L-ascorbic acid.

Glycerin

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

Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer

Crosspolymer for thickening/film; needs neutralization to pH 7-8 to hydrate, check ion strength.

Malpighia Punicifolia Fruit Extract

Natural extract providing antioxidant activity; used as functional ingredient at low levels.

Caffeine

Active ingredient, 0.1–2%; promotes circulation, irritation risk at high concentration.

Sodium Hyaluronate

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

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%.

Sodium Acetylated Hyaluronate

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

Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer

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

Hydrolyzed Plukenetia Volubilis Seed Extract

Hydrolyzed Mulberry seed extract; small proteins enhance penetration and film-forming, acting as emulsifier stabilizer. Suitable for sensitive repair; check charge interactions.

Linoleic Acid

Essential fatty acid for barrier repair and hydration; oxidizes easily, high levels may be comedogenic

Phospholipids

Biomimetic repair and emollient, mimics skin lipids; typically processed at low temps, may be sticky at high levels

Bisabolol

Soothing and anti-inflammatory agent, 0.01–0.1%; low irritation, good for sensitive skin.

Helianthus Annuus Extract

Sunflower extract; oleic/vit E rich; emollient, low irrit, good for dry skin, no pub comed data

Physalis Angulata Extract

Physalis extract rich in polysaccharides and flavonoids for soothing and skin protection. Extraction method affects activity; use standardized extracts for consistency.

Bis-Diglyceryl Polyacyladipate-1

Not decoded yet

Oryza Sativa Bran Extract

Rice bran extract rich in vitamins; moisturizing and soothing, generally well-tolerated.

Tocopherol

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

Hexamidine Diisethionate

Antimicrobial preservative targeting Gram-positive bacteria. EU-limited concentration; conduct irritation tests and verify compatibility with other preservative systems.

Sodium Phytate

Chelating agent stabilizes metal ions to prevent oxidative degradation; also used in oral care, high safety profile.

Melia Azadirachta Extract

Neem extract for traditional antibacterial care; contains azadirachtin, potential allergen, low dose.

Moringa Oleifera Seed Oil

Light emollient oil rich in oleic acid; moderate comedogenic risk.

Ethylhexylglycerin

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

Potassium Hydroxide

Strong alkali pH adjuster, trace usage (<0.1%); corrosive, must be neutralized.

Rosmarinus Officinalis Leaf Extract

Plant extract containing rosmarinic acid etc., with antioxidant and antimicrobial properties; may contain allergenic fragrances, patch test for sensitive skin, typical concentration <1%.

Butylene Glycol

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

Citric Acid

Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH

Sodium Benzoate

Preservative booster, effective below pH 4.5; combinable with sorbates
