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
- Squalane
- Emollient from plants or synthetic; light texture
- Butylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel
- Alcohol Denat
- Denatured ethanol; solvent, penetration enhancer, and quick-dry agent; high % may compromise barrier in dry skin.
- Triethylhexanoin
- Light ester for non-greasy feel and fragrance; low allergenicity, high levels can act as solvent
- Dipropylene Glycol
- Solvent for essential oils; better humectancy than PEG
- Xylitol
- Polyol humectant, sweet taste; water-soluble, high hygroscopy, excess draws moisture.
- PEG/PPG-14/7 Dimethyl Ether
- Solvent and skin conditioning agent improving texture; contains PEG structure for solubilization
- Trehalose
- Trehalose; mild humectant and stabilizer for proteins/actives; hygroscopic, light skin feel.
- Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate
- Dipotassium glycyrrhizinate for moisturizing/soothing; inhibits 5-LOX, water-soluble, for sensitive skin.
- Sodium Acetylated Hyaluronate
- Acetylated HA; modified for hydrophobicity, improved penetration and non-tacky feel compared to standard HA.
- Mentha Piperita Leaf Extract
- Mint extract for cooling sensation; contains menthol, mild irritation potential.
- Scutellaria Baicalensis Root Extract
- Scutellaria root extract with baicalin for antioxidant and soothing effects; also provides astringent and humectant properties.
- Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract
- Aloe vera leaf extract for soothing and humectant; monitor polysaccharide level and endotoxins
- Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract
- Green tea extract for antioxidant/astringent; contains caffeine, possible irritation in sensitive skin.
- Glyceryl Stearate SE
- Emulsifier at 1–3%; oil-phase ingredient, easy emulsification, low sensitization.
- Behenyl Alcohol
- Fat alcohol emulsifier/thickener at 1-3%; low comedogenic risk, check solubility in strong acid/base systems, add antioxidants.
- Batyl Alcohol
- Squalane, non-pungent emollient 0-5%; low irritation, suits dry/sensitive skin, emulsion stabilizer.
- PEG-60 Glyceryl Isostearate
- Non-ionic solubilizer/emulsifier; high HLB, often paired with anionics, may increase penetration.
- Carbomer
- Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility
- Potassium Hydroxide
- Strong alkali pH adjuster, trace usage (<0.1%); corrosive, must be neutralized.
- Alcohol
- Ethanol for solubility/drying at 5-15%; high conc. is drying/irritating, avoid lip/eye, low residue, balance with humectants.
- Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer
- Crosspolymer for thickening/film; needs neutralization to pH 7-8 to hydrate, check ion strength.
- Limonene
- Natural fragrance solvent, EU allergen; poor photostability
- Sodium Metaphosphate
- Sodium metaphosphate; buffer and chelating agent; good water solubility, strongly alkaline, precise dosing required
- Butyrospermum Parkii Butter
- Shea butter for occlusive moisturizing; high melt point, rich texture, caution for oily skin.
- Linalool
- Natural fragrance component at ≤0.05%; one of EU 26 allergens, caution for sensitive skin
- Sodium Metabisulfite
- Antioxidant/preservative at 0.05–0.2%; irritating for sensitive skin, avoid with oxidizers
- Benzyl Benzoate
- Chelating agent for stability; restricted substance, not permitted as single component or in mixtures at ≥0.1%.
- Hexyl Cinnamal
- Common fragrance component (jasmine/vanilla note); listed EU allergen, requires labeling at >10ppm (leave-on).
- Tocopherol
- Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Fragrance
- Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components
