Ingredients explained
- Aqua
- Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical
- Tranexamic Acid
- Tranexamic acid for skin brightening; generally mild at low external doses.
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Butylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel
- Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride
- Light occlusive and solvent at 1–10%; non-greasy feel, suitable for oily and combination skin
- Propylene Glycol Alginate
- Not decoded yet
- PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil
- Solubilizer and emulsifier for oil-soluble ingredients; high concentrations may cause contact dermatitis in sensitive skin.
- Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer
- Crosspolymer for thickening/film; needs neutralization to pH 7-8 to hydrate, check ion strength.
- Disodium Lauriminodipropionate Tocopheryl Phosphates
- Gentle two-phase/ionic cleanser & conditioner, vitamin E phosphate; mild but needs compatibility testing
- Sodium Lactate
- Sodium lactate for moisturizing and exfoliation; pH buffering agent
- Sodium PCA
- Sodium PCA, NMF component, 1-10% humectant; salty/tacky at high levels.
- Glycine
- Humectant amino acid, 1–3%; small molecule, low irritation.
- Fructose
- Strong humectant; high levels can increase viscosity and hygroscopicity.
- Phenylethyl Resorcinol
- Phenylethyl resorcinol, antioxidant/whitening at 0.1–1%; inhibits tyrosinase, watch compatibility with high-dose VC.
- Niacinamide
- Niacinamide at 2–5%; improves texture, controls oil, brightens; high levels may cause sensitivity
- Hinokitiol
- Natural antistatic and hair conditioner; low irritancy, comedogenicity data not publicly available
- Tetrapeptide-30
- Not decoded yet
- Alcohol Denat
- Denatured ethanol; solvent, penetration enhancer, and quick-dry agent; high % may compromise barrier in dry skin.
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Caprylyl Glycol
- Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol
- Inositol
- Humectant at 0.5–2%; gentle moisturizing, suitable for sensitive skin
- Sodium Citrate
- Sodium citrate for buffering and chelating; adjust pH, careful with strong acid reactions.
- Sodium Benzoate
- Preservative booster, effective below pH 4.5; combinable with sorbates
- Sorbic Acid
- Preservative effective at low pH, often combined with sorbate salts; check regulatory limits
- Sodium Polyacrylate
- Superabsorbent resin, <1%; gels with electrolytes, ionic strength control required.
- Lactic Acid
- AHA pH adjuster at 0.5-5%; exfoliation/humectancy, mild at low conc., irritating at high, avoid conflict with alkaline preservatives.
- Sodium Hydroxide
- Strong base neutralizer for pH adjustment; handle with extreme care
- Citric Acid
- Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH
