Ingredients explained

Water

Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth

Glycerin

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

Dimethicone

Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin

1,2-Hexanediol

Polyol solvent and preservative booster at 1–5%; light feel, can replace some traditional preservatives

Propanediol

Polyol solvent at 1–5%; light feel, aids solubilization, propylene glycol alternative

Betaine

Betaine for mild moisturizing/surfactant; low concentration 1-2% common, high may irritate.

Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltaurate/VP Copolymer

Cationic polymer providing suspension, thickening, and conditioning; often paired with anionic thickening systems, low usage, imparts slip.

Butylene Glycol

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

Cetearyl Alcohol

Fatty alcohol emulsifier at 1-5%; non-ionic surfactant

Polyglyceryl-3 Methylglucose Distearate

Non-ionic emulsifier at 1–3%; mild, easily combined with other surfactants.

Glyceryl Caprylate

Mild emulsifier/deodorant at 0.5-2%; polyol ester, high humectancy, low irritancy, check cationic surfactant compatibility.

Hydrogenated Lecithin

Emulsifier from lecithin; stable, used in powder emulsions

Glyceryl Stearate Citrate

Emulsifying stabilizer and emollient at 2–5%; provides creamy texture, check compatibility with anionic surfactants

Ginseng Water

Not decoded yet

Ethylhexyl-Glycerin

Ethylhexylglycerin, moisturizer/boosting agent; enhances preservation/moisture, gentle, often combined with humectants.

Carbomer

Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility

Disodium EDTA

Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy

Black 2

Iron Oxide Black (CI 77499) colorant; inert mineral, low irritancy, prevent inhalation risks from fine particles.

Soybean Oil

Soybean oil; base emollient; allergen must be labeled; oxidizes easily, need antioxidants.

Acrylate/Stearyl Methacrylic Rate Copolymer

Not decoded yet

Allantoin

Skin soother at 0.5-2%; promotes cell regeneration

Tromethamine

pH adjuster, alkaline; precise dosing required

Hyaluronic Acid

High-water-binding humectant at 0.1-1%; high-MW for surface film, low-MW for dermal potential, check cationic compatibility.

Shiho Root Extract

Ceramide NP

Ceramide N3 for barrier repair; lipophilic, needs oil phase or emulsion, avoid high standalone use.

Xanthan Gum

Natural thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, pH-stable, requires full hydration

Phytosphingosine

Phytosphingosine barrier repair ingredient, 0.1–1%; water-soluble, good for dry skin.

Tocopherol

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

Canola Oil

Low-erucic acid vegetable oil as emollient; check allergen labeling if applicable.

Rosemary Leaf Extract

Rosemary extract antioxidant/conditioning; contains EO, high conc. may sensitize
