Ingredients explained
- Aqua/Water
- Solvent, formulation base; requires preservation, pure water is microbially prone.
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Niacinamide
- Niacinamide at 2–5%; improves texture, controls oil, brightens; high levels may cause sensitivity
- Propanediol
- Polyol solvent at 1–5%; light feel, aids solubilization, propylene glycol alternative
- Butyrospermum Parkii Butter/Shea Butter
- Shea butter, occlusive emollient for dry skin and hair; high in lipids, caution for oily skin
- Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride
- Light occlusive and solvent at 1–10%; non-greasy feel, suitable for oily and combination skin
- Dimethicone
- Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin
- Squalane
- Emollient from plants or synthetic; light texture
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Carbomer
- Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility
- Ammonium Polyacryloyldimethyl Taurate
- Cationic water-soluble polymer; stabilizer and conditioner, test compatibility with anions
- Sodium Polyacrylate
- Superabsorbent resin, <1%; gels with electrolytes, ionic strength control required.
- Dimethiconol
- Dimethiconol; silicone emollient providing silky feel and reducing friction; moderate comedogenicity, avoid excess.
- Sodium Hyaluronate
- Potent humectant at 0.1–2%; different MW for penetration depth, high levels may draw moisture
- Caprylyl Glycol
- Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol
- Caffeine
- Active ingredient, 0.1–2%; promotes circulation, irritation risk at high concentration.
- Biosaccharide Gum-1
- Biosaccharide Gum-1, fermented colloid for hydration and soothing, low comedogenic.
- Disodium EDTA
- Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy
- Ginkgo Biloba Leaf Extract
- Antioxidant and microcirculation modifier rich in flavonoids; requires stability testing to prevent oxidation
- T-Butyl Alcohol
- Fast-evaporating solvent; sharp odor and potential irritation at high levels, limit usage
- Ci 42090/Blue 1
- Not decoded yet
- Citric Acid
- Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH
- Parfum/Fragrance
- Blended fragrance for odor; contains 26 restricted allergens, use caution in sensitive/child/eye products, verify compliance.
