- Polysorbate 20
- Non-ionic emulsifier and cleansing surfactant; contains PEG, control microbial load.
- Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil
- Common in dry/damaged hair; superior penetration vs mineral oils, low comedogenic risk, poor oxidative stability.

- Light occlusive and solvent at 1–10%; non-greasy feel, suitable for oily and combination skin
- Palmitoyl Grape Seed Extract
- Palmitoyl grape seed extract, liposome-encapsulated active; skin conditioning and antioxidant, enhances absorption, check compatibility.
