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

Potassium Hydroxide

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

Stearic Acid

Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel

Glyceryl Stearate

Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification

Palmitic Acid

Palmitic acid for emulsification/emollient; solid fat, high melting point, occlusive.

Cocamidopropyl Betaine

Cocamidopropyl betaine; zwitterionic co-surfactant reducing irritation and boosting foam, common in mild cleansers.

Butylene Glycol

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

Sorbitol

Polyol humectant with strong hygroscopy; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives; also a solvent or adjuster.

Potassium Benzoate

Potassium benzoate; preservative effective at pH<5.5; efficacy reduced when combined with alcohols

Sodium Chloride

Salt for gel viscosity control; used as precipitant in soaps
