Ingredients explained

Water

Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth

Snail Secretion Filtrate

Snail secretion filtrate with moisturizing and repairing peptides; animal-derived, monitor purity and allergy risk

Glycerin

Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives

Cyclopentasiloxane

Cyclopentasiloxane for emollient/solvent; volatile silicone, smooth feel, check VOC regulations.

Hydrogenated Poly

Hydrogenated poly C6-14 olefins, saturated oil; occlusive, low permeability

Butylene Glycol

Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel

Niacinamide

Niacinamide at 2–5%; improves texture, controls oil, brightens; high levels may cause sensitivity

Decyl Cocoate

Cocoate ester, emulsifier/skin conditioner; good compatibility, low comedogenic, high doses (>5%) may feel greasy

Cetyl Ethylhexanoate

Synthetic oil providing slip; large molecule, low penetration, non-comedogenic, suitable for dry or rough skin.

Pentylene Glycol

Polyol humectant at 1-3%; low irritancy, suitable for sensitive skin

Integrifolia Macadamia Seed Oil

Not decoded yet

Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil

Macadamia oil, rich in palmitoleic, good penetration; light feel; non-comedogenic.

Swiftlet Nest Extract

Not decoded yet

Aloe Ferox Leaf Extract

Aloe ferox leaf extract for soothing and moisturizing.

Panax Ginseng Root Extract

Botanical extract for skin and hair conditioning; activity and irritation risk vary by source/purity, patch test for sensitive skin

Viscum Album Fruit Extract

Mistletoe fruit extract, soothing and anti-inflammatory; check tolerance for sensitive skin.

Gardenia Tahitensis Flower Extract

Tahitian Gardenia flower extract, plant-based skincare and fragrance; may contain fragrance allergens, label required for leave-on products.

Origanum Vulgare Leaf Extract

Oregano extract with antimicrobial properties; high doses may irritate.

Salix Alba Bark Extract

Contains natural salicylic acid precursors, mild exfoliating and antibacterial; may irritate at high levels; avoid in sensitive skin.

Chamaecyparis Obtusa Leaf Extract

Plant leaf extract containing essential oils for skin conditioning and soothing; dilute concentrated extracts to avoid irritation.

Portulaca Oleracea Extract

Achyronica extract with anti-inflammatory properties; monitor for heavy metals and pesticides, low-risk at typical doses

Scutellaria Baicalensis Root Extract

Scutellaria root extract with baicalin for antioxidant and soothing effects; also provides astringent and humectant properties.

Lactobacillus/Soybean Ferment Extract

Ferment extract with amino acids and peptides for skin conditioning; monitor microbial stability and watch for allergens.

Cinnamomum Cassia Bark Extract

Cinnamon bark for hair and fragrance; some allergens require labeling; watch oral dosage.

Dioscorea Japonica Root Extract

Dioscorea root extract used for moisturizing and repairing, boosts hydration.

Gold

Gold in nano or microparticle form, for coloring and slip; usage restricted by regulations

Ethylhexyl Palmitate

Synthetic ester emollient with light skin feel; small molecule, slightly comedogenic, use cautiously for acne-prone skin, often blended with other oils.

Polysorbate 60

Non-ionic emulsifier and solubilizer for O/W or W/O stability; may cause mild stinging on sensitive skin, typically 1-5%.

Dipropylene Glycol

Solvent for essential oils; better humectancy than PEG

Sorbitan Olivate

O/W emulsifier, HLB ~15, requires ionic co-surfactant, potential sensitizer.

Cetyl Palmitate

Waxy ester increasing viscosity and providing heavy feel; used as emulsifier carrier, low comedogenicity, strong occlusion.

Sorbitan Palmitate

Non-ionic emulsifier, typically used in W/O or blending systems. Low toxicity, non-comedogenic.

Dimethicone

Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin

Raffinose

Oligosaccharide humectant at 1–5%; improves feel and supports conditioning; low irritation, compatible with most systems.

Caprylyl Glycol

Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol

Sodium Chondroitin Sulfate

Humectant and antistatic agent for skin and hair; biocompatible and low irritation. Large molecular weight limits deep penetration.

Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer

Crosspolymer for thickening/film; needs neutralization to pH 7-8 to hydrate, check ion strength.

Tromethamine

pH adjuster, alkaline; precise dosing required

Sodium Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer

Acrylate copolymer for film/thickening; water-soluble, compatible, monitor residual monomers.

Adenosine

Skin conditioner at 0.1-1%; used for anti-aging and repair

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

Polydecene

Not decoded yet

Sorbitan Oleate

Non-ionic emulsifier for oil-in-water systems; plant-derived, check oxidative stability

Squalane

Emollient from plants or synthetic; light texture

Ceramide 3

Ceramide 3 to restore skin barrier and moisturize; used at 0.01–1%, often blended

Phytosphingosine

Phytosphingosine barrier repair ingredient, 0.1–1%; water-soluble, good for dry skin.

Ethyl Hexanediol

Polyol solvent with humectant and mild preservative boost; low viscosity, compatible with many ingredients, gentle.

Ethylhexylglycerin

Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel

1,2-Hexanediol

Polyol solvent and preservative booster at 1–5%; light feel, can replace some traditional preservatives

Behenyl Alcohol

Fat alcohol emulsifier/thickener at 1-3%; low comedogenic risk, check solubility in strong acid/base systems, add antioxidants.
