Ingredients explained
- Aqua/Water
- Solvent, formulation base; requires preservation, pure water is microbially prone.
- Squalane
- Emollient from plants or synthetic; light texture
- Propanediol
- Polyol solvent at 1–5%; light feel, aids solubilization, propylene glycol alternative
- Dimethicone
- Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin
- Hydrogenated Polyisobutene
- Hydrogenated polyisobutene; petroleum-derived lubricant forming breathable film; high purity, low irritation/comedogenicity.
- Niacinamide
- Niacinamide at 2–5%; improves texture, controls oil, brightens; high levels may cause sensitivity
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Pentaerythrityl Tetraisostearate
- Mild emulsifier and emollient with cleansing function; suitable for baby and sensitive skin, low irritancy.
- Pentylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant at 1-3%; low irritancy, suitable for sensitive skin
- Aqua/Water
- Solvent, formulation base; requires preservation, pure water is microbially prone.
- Butyrospermum Parkii Butter/Shea Butter
- Shea butter, occlusive emollient for dry skin and hair; high in lipids, caution for oily skin
- Stearyl Dimethicone
- Silicone emulsifier/modifier for texture. Highly occlusive; use caution in acne-prone skin or if silicone sensitivity is a concern.
- Ammonium Polyacryldimethyltauramide/Ammonium Polyacryloyldimethyl Taurate
- Polyamido-polyamine copolymer, conditioning and chelating agent; water-soluble, non-volatile.
- Propylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant at 3-10%; hygroscopic, slight tackiness, mild irritation at high conc., verify preservative efficacy, no allergen.
- Synthetic Wax
