Ingredients explained
- Aqua
- Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical
- Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride
- Light occlusive and solvent at 1–10%; non-greasy feel, suitable for oily and combination skin
- Cetearyl Alcohol
- Fatty alcohol emulsifier at 1-5%; non-ionic surfactant
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis Oil
- Sweet almond oil, light emollient; suitable for sensitive skin, caution for nut allergies.
- Cetyl Alcohol
- Cetyl alcohol for emulsification/thickening; high concentration >10% may irritate.
- Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil
- Macadamia oil, rich in palmitoleic, good penetration; light feel; non-comedogenic.
- Sodium Acrylate /Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate
- Not decoded yet
- Isohexadecane
- Lightweight mineral-oil-derived emollient and solvent; low viscosity, non-comedogenic, improves texture
- Polysorbate 80
- Non-ionic emulsifier and solubilizer; watch for interaction with parabens
- Betaglucan
- Not decoded yet
- Cetearyl Glucoside
- Gentle non-ionic sugar-based emulsifier for low-irritation formulas; often co-blended
- Pentylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant at 1-3%; low irritancy, suitable for sensitive skin
- Sodium Lactate
- Sodium lactate for moisturizing and exfoliation; pH buffering agent
- Lactic Acid
- AHA pH adjuster at 0.5-5%; exfoliation/humectancy, mild at low conc., irritating at high, avoid conflict with alkaline preservatives.
- Serine
- Humectant amino acid, 1–3%; high water solubility, compatible with sensitive skin.
- Urea
- Potent humectant and keratolytic, >10% has exfoliating effect; stinging sensation at high levels, sensitive skin caution
- Sorbitol
- Polyol humectant with strong hygroscopy; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives; also a solvent or adjuster.
- Sodium Chloride
- Salt for gel viscosity control; used as precipitant in soaps
- Allantoin
- Skin soother at 0.5-2%; promotes cell regeneration
- Rosa Moschata Seed Oil
- Rosehip seed oil, high in linoleic acid; emollient but heavy, avoid for oily/acne-prone skin.
- Avena Sativa Kernel Flour
- Oat flour; physical exfoliant/absorbent; beta-glucan for soothing, control particle size.
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Caprylyl Glycol
- Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol
- Triethanolamine
- Triethanolamine for buffering; restricted, limit concentration to avoid high pH and irritation
- Benzyl Alcohol
- Mild preservative/solvent at 0.5-1.0%; EU allergen (labeling required), irritation risk if concentrated, avoid in infant/highly sensitive skin.
- Sorbic Acid
- Preservative effective at low pH, often combined with sorbate salts; check regulatory limits
- Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltaurate/VP Copolymer
- Cationic polymer providing suspension, thickening, and conditioning; often paired with anionic thickening systems, low usage, imparts slip.
- Disodium EDTA
- Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy
- Tocopheryl Acetate
- Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light
- Sorbitan Oleate
- Non-ionic emulsifier for oil-in-water systems; plant-derived, check oxidative stability
