- Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical
- Glyceryl Stearate
- Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Cetearyl Alcohol
- Fatty alcohol emulsifier at 1-5%; non-ionic surfactant
- Propylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant at 3-10%; hygroscopic, slight tackiness, mild irritation at high conc., verify preservative efficacy, no allergen.
- Cannabis Sativa Seed Oil
- Hemp seed oil, non-psychoactive, emollient for skin and hair; high linoleic acid, needs antioxidants
- Decyl Oleate
- Decyl oleate, light ester emollient and solubilizer; refreshing feel, low comedogenicity, suitable for most skin types.
- Cetearyl Glucoside
- Gentle non-ionic sugar-based emulsifier for low-irritation formulas; often co-blended
- Panthenol
- Panthenol (vitamin B5) at 1–5%; moisturizing and reparative, supports barrier recovery
- Sodium Cocoamphoacetate
- Mild amphoteric surfactant at 0.5–5%; low irritation, suitable for sensitive skin, often paired with anionics.
- Lauryl Glucoside
- Mild nonionic surfactant for cleansing; 1-5%, suitable for sensitive skin
- Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate
- Amino acid surfactant, gentle cleansing; rich foam, may sting eyes, good compatibility.
- Sodium Lauryl Glucose Carboxylate
- Gluconate carboxylate anionic surfactant, mild cleanser; good for sensitive formulations.

- Ethylhexyl Olivate
- Oleate ester emollient; light feel, high comedogenic rating, limit for acne-prone skin.
- Carbomer
- Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility
- Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer
- Crosspolymer for thickening/film; needs neutralization to pH 7-8 to hydrate, check ion strength.
- 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
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Ethylhexylglycerin
- Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel
- Citral
- Citral; citrus fragrance component, listed EU allergen, high phototoxicity risk, strict concentration limits apply.
- Citronellol
- Citronellol for fragrance; EU 26 allergen, labeling required above 0.001%.
- Coumarin
