Formulation view Aqueous essence with propylene glycol and glycerol for base hydration. Core 5% niacinamide combined with yeast filtrate, panthenol, and pomegranate extract for antioxidant benefits. Trehalose stabilizes actives. Suitable for all skin types. Factory observation: yeast filtrate requires light protection to avoid browning; precise dosing of PVM/MA film former is needed to prevent stickiness or pilling.

Ingredients explained
- Aqua
- Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical
- Propylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant at 3-10%; hygroscopic, slight tackiness, mild irritation at high conc., verify preservative efficacy, no allergen.
- Nicotinamide
- Not decoded yet
- Glycerol
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives; non-comedogenic
- Sodium Hyaluronate
- Potent humectant at 0.1–2%; different MW for penetration depth, high levels may draw moisture
- Saccharomyces Ferment Filtrate
- Yeast ferment filtrate; humectant and conditioner. May contain peptides, prone to browning, protect from light.
- Dexpanthenol
- Panthenol-like conditioner for repair/soothing; 1–2% typical, high levels may feel tacky; suits sensitive/compromised skin lines.
- Punica Granatum Extract
- Pomegranate extract containing polyphenols; offers antioxidant and skin-protecting properties, often used in brightening formulas.
- Licorice Extract
- Contains glycyrrhizin and glabridin for soothing and pigmentation inhibition; manage light sensitivity and concentration limits
- Β-Glucans
- Not decoded yet
- Trehalose
- Trehalose; mild humectant and stabilizer for proteins/actives; hygroscopic, light skin feel.
- Allantoin
- Skin soother at 0.5-2%; promotes cell regeneration

- Triethanolamine
- Triethanolamine for buffering; restricted, limit concentration to avoid high pH and irritation
- Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer
- Crosspolymer for thickening/film; needs neutralization to pH 7-8 to hydrate, check ion strength.
- Pentylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant at 1-3%; low irritancy, suitable for sensitive skin
- Hydroxyacetophenone
- Hydroxyacetophenone as antioxidant; often boosts Vitamin C, works in acidic pH.
- Dipropylene Glycol
- Solvent for essential oils; better humectancy than PEG
- Hydroxyethyl Urea
- Potent humectant and conditioner; high penetration, used for skin hydration and hair care
- Hydrolyzed Sodium Hyaluronate
- Low-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid derivative with better penetration and strong hydration; different molecular weights provide hydration at various depths, typical concentration 0.1-1%.
- Glyceryl Acrylate/Acrylic Acid Copolymer
- Acrylate copolymer for thickening and moisturizing; synthetic polymer with low sensitization risk.
