Ingredients explained
- Water
- Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
- Myristic Acid
- Saturated fatty acid, saponification feedstock; insoluble alone, pairs with stearic acid.
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Stearic Acid
- Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel
- Potassium Hydroxide
- Strong alkali pH adjuster, trace usage (<0.1%); corrosive, must be neutralized.
- Sorbitol
- Polyol humectant with strong hygroscopy; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives; also a solvent or adjuster.
- Dipropylene Glycol
- Solvent for essential oils; better humectancy than PEG
- Lauric Acid
- Lauric acid for cleansing and emulsification; high comedogenic rating, recommend limiting to 1-2% or combining with other acids.
- PEG-20 Glyceryl Isostearate
- PEG-20 Glyceryl Isostearate, surfactant/emulsifier for cleansing; monitor high PEG concentration sensitivity
- PEG-6
- Not decoded yet
- PEG-32
- Not decoded yet
- Sodium Methyl Cocoyl Taurate
- Amino acid based mild surfactant, soft lather; cleaning power increases with salt but may dry out.
- Glyceryl Stearate SE
- Emulsifier at 1–3%; oil-phase ingredient, easy emulsification, low sensitization.
- Glycol Distearate
- Glycol distearate for thickening and emulsification; non-ionic, improves viscosity
- Polyquaternium-7
- Not decoded yet
- Fragrance
- Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components
- Trisodium EDTA
- Metal chelator improving formula stability and synergizing preservatives; used at very low levels (<0.1%), control heavy metals.
- Sodium Methyltaurate
- Gentle anionic surfactant for mild cleansing and foaming; low irritation profile suitable for sensitive skin formulas.
- Butylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel
- Linalool
- Natural fragrance component at ≤0.05%; one of EU 26 allergens, caution for sensitive skin
- Citronellol
- Citronellol for fragrance; EU 26 allergen, labeling required above 0.001%.
- Geraniol
- Geraniol for fragrance; EU 26 allergen, labeling required above 0.001%.
- Butylphenyl Methylpropional
- Synthetic fragrance with floral notes; EU regulations limit usage, strict monitoring required.
- Sodium Metabisulfite
- Antioxidant/preservative at 0.05–0.2%; irritating for sensitive skin, avoid with oxidizers
- Prunus Speciosa Leaf Extract
- Not decoded yet
- Iron Oxides
- Inorganic pigment for color; particulate form, inhalation risk low in cosmetics.
- Iron Oxides
- Inorganic pigment for color; particulate form, inhalation risk low in cosmetics.
