Ingredients explained

Aqua
Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical
Glycerin
Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
Butyrospermum Parkii Butter
Shea butter for occlusive moisturizing; high melt point, rich texture, caution for oily skin.
Triisostearin
Polyglyceryl ester, emulsifier and thickener; no mineral oil, check viscosity.
Methylpropanediol
Diol solvent and extraction carrier; enhances solubility of actives, low irritation profile.
Cetearyl Alcohol
Fatty alcohol emulsifier at 1-5%; non-ionic surfactant
Isopropyl Palmitate
Isopropyl palmitate for dry touch; prone to oxidation, needs antioxidants, low viscosity
Hydrogenated Coco-Glycerides
Hydrog coco glycerides; waxy emollient; low irrit, low-mid comed, occlusive option
C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate
C12-15 alkyl benzoate; emollient, emulsifier, and antistatic; aids stability and smoothness, moderate low comedogenicity.
Synthetic Beeswax
Synthetic wax for binding/emulsion stability; replaces natural wax, lower allergenic risk
Glyceryl Stearate Citrate
Emulsifying stabilizer and emollient at 2–5%; provides creamy texture, check compatibility with anionic surfactants
Panthenol
Panthenol (vitamin B5) at 1–5%; moisturizing and reparative, supports barrier recovery
Glucosylrutin
Rutin glucoside form, antioxidant with improved water solubility, low irritation for brightening formulas
Isoquercitrin
Natural flavonoid antioxidant for skin brightening; plant-derived, monitor stability.
Tocopheryl Acetate
Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light
Ethylhexylglycerin
Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel
Carbomer
Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility
Trisodium EDTA
Metal chelator improving formula stability and synergizing preservatives; used at very low levels (<0.1%), control heavy metals.
Sodium Hydroxide
Strong base neutralizer for pH adjustment; handle with extreme care
Phenoxyethanol
Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
Butylphenyl Methylpropional
Synthetic fragrance with floral notes; EU regulations limit usage, strict monitoring required.
Linalool
Natural fragrance component at ≤0.05%; one of EU 26 allergens, caution for sensitive skin
Limonene
Natural fragrance solvent, EU allergen; poor photostability
Geraniol
Geraniol for fragrance; EU 26 allergen, labeling required above 0.001%.
Benzyl Alcohol
Mild preservative/solvent at 0.5-1.0%; EU allergen (labeling required), irritation risk if concentrated, avoid in infant/highly sensitive skin.
Citronellol
Citronellol for fragrance; EU 26 allergen, labeling required above 0.001%.
Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone
Vanilla-like fragrance ingredient; one of EU 26 allergens, caution advised for sensitive skin.
Benzophenone
Benzophenone stabilizer preventing photodegradation, also fragrance component, watch EU restriction rules
BHT
Lipophilic antioxidant at 0.01-0.05%; ineffective with acidic systems, label-sensitive, check regulatory limits as preservative alternative.
Parfum
Fragrance for scent; may contain allergens, caution for sensitive skin, full labeling required.
