Ingredients explained
- Aqua
- Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical
- Uriage Thermal Spring Water
- Uriage thermal spring water; mineral-rich, soothing, check preservative compatibility.
- Sodium Laureth Sulfate
- Common anionic surfactant, strong foam but drying; check cationic compatibility, high eye irritation
- Sodium Chloride
- Salt for gel viscosity control; used as precipitant in soaps
- Sodium Cocoamphoacetate
- Mild amphoteric surfactant at 0.5–5%; low irritation, suitable for sensitive skin, often paired with anionics.
- Sodium Laureth-8 Sulfate
- Standard anionic surfactant, strong cleansing, high foam; can dry skin with repeated use, blend with nonionic/amphoteric to lower irritation.
- PEG-80 Glyceryl Cocoate
- Not decoded yet
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Coco-Glucoside
- Mild non-ionic surfactant for cleansing and foaming; rich foam, low irritation, suitable for sensitive and children's products
- Lactic Acid
- AHA pH adjuster at 0.5-5%; exfoliation/humectancy, mild at low conc., irritating at high, avoid conflict with alkaline preservatives.
- Magnesium Laureth Sulfate
- Magnesium salt surfactant, stronger cleansing than sodium salts, good for hard-water areas; may feel stripping, pair with conditioners.
- Sodium Oleth Sulfate
- Mild anionic surfactant for shampoos/body washes; rich foam, less irritating than LAS; caution for sensitive skin.
- Sodium Methyl Cocoyl Taurate
- Amino acid based mild surfactant, soft lather; cleaning power increases with salt but may dry out.
- Parfum
- Fragrance for scent; may contain allergens, caution for sensitive skin, full labeling required.
- Magnesium Laureth-8 Sulfate
- Not decoded yet
- Glycol Distearate
- Glycol distearate for thickening and emulsification; non-ionic, improves viscosity
- PEG-120 Methyl Glucose Dioleate
- PEG-modified emulsifier; mild, low-foam. For O/W and anhydrous systems, check compatibility and viscosity.
- DMDM Hydantoin
- Formaldehyde-releasing preservative (V/33 limit); monitor cumulative formaldehyde with fragrances.
- Glyceryl Oleate
- Glyceride-based emulsifier and emolient with mild perfuming properties.
- Magnesium Oleth Sulfate
- Magnesium salt mild anionic surfactant, moderate cleansing, fine foam; magnesium ions may reduce performance in hard water.
- Piroctone Olamine
- Antifungal/antiseborrheic agent; high-concentration irritation; avoid eye area.
- Alcohol
- Ethanol for solubility/drying at 5-15%; high conc. is drying/irritating, avoid lip/eye, low residue, balance with humectants.
- Leontopodium Alpinum Flower/Leaf Extract
- Alpine edelweiss flower/leaf extract for skin conditioning; often in soothing claims.
