- Panthenol
- Panthenol (vitamin B5) at 1–5%; moisturizing and reparative, supports barrier recovery
- Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride
- Light occlusive and solvent at 1–10%; non-greasy feel, suitable for oily and combination skin
- Decyl Oleate
- Decyl oleate, light ester emollient and solubilizer; refreshing feel, low comedogenicity, suitable for most skin types.
- Sodium Polyacrylate
- Superabsorbent resin, <1%; gels with electrolytes, ionic strength control required.
- Hydrogenated Polydecene
- Hydrogenated polydecene, light mineral oil alternative, low comedogenic; silky, non-greasy.
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Isopropyl Myristate
- Light synthetic ester, fast-drying and non-greasy; high comedogenic risk, limit in acne-prone skin
- Allantoin
- Skin soother at 0.5-2%; promotes cell regeneration
- Parfum
- Fragrance for scent; may contain allergens, caution for sensitive skin, full labeling required.
- Trideceth-6
- Not decoded yet
- Ethyl Linoleate
- Fatty acid ester emollient for dryness; prone to oxidation, requires light protection.
- Tocopheryl Acetate
- Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light
- Retinyl Palmitate
- Vitamin A ester for skin conditioning; light-sensitive, requires protection, avoid in pregnancy.
- Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil
- Sunflower seed oil for emollient/occlusive; high linoleic acid, low comedogenicity.

- Peanut oil, occlusive emollient; **EU restricted allergen**, contraindicated for those with allergies, moderate comedogenicity, caution for oily skin.
- Retinyl Acetate
- Retinyl acetate, vitamin A ester; restricted use (III/376), photosensitive, high concentrations cause irritation, control dosage.
- Ethylhexylglycerin
- Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel
- Tocopherol
- Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light
