Ingredients explained
- Water
- Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Ascorbic Acid
- Vitamin C, potent antioxidant requiring acidic environment for stability; oxidizes and discolors easily, needs light and air protection, concentration 1-10%, pure L-ascorbic acid is more irritating.
- Caffeine
- Active ingredient, 0.1–2%; promotes circulation, irritation risk at high concentration.
- Melaleuca Alternifolia Leaf Oil
- Tea tree oil, antibacterial and sebum regulating; highly sensitizing at concentrate level, dilute; avoid on broken skin.
- Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract
- Green tea extract for antioxidant/astringent; contains caffeine, possible irritation in sensitive skin.
- Rosemary Officinalis Leaf Extract
- Not decoded yet
- Peppermint Oil
- Peppermint oil with strong cooling sensation, high levels cause sensitivity, avoid on compromised skin.
- Eucalyptus Globulus Oil
- Eucalyptus oil for cooling sensation and fragrance; use low concentration for sensitive skin to avoid irritation
- Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3
- Not decoded yet
- Copper Tripeptide-1
- Copper Tripeptide-1 (GHK-Cu) for repair/anti-aging at 0.01–0.1%; water-soluble, avoid chelators.
- Biotin
- Vitamin B7 nutrient claimant; topical effect limited, use at 1-20 ppm.
- Hyaluronic Acid
- High-water-binding humectant at 0.1-1%; high-MW for surface film, low-MW for dermal potential, check cationic compatibility.
- Menthol
- Cooling and soothing agent at 0.5–2%; high levels may cause sensitivity or irritation, use caution around eyes and mucous membranes
- Sodium PCA
- Sodium PCA, NMF component, 1-10% humectant; salty/tacky at high levels.
- Sodium Lactate
- Sodium lactate for moisturizing and exfoliation; pH buffering agent
- Arginine
- Arginine for moisturizing/conditioning; amino acid, high biocompatibility, often used in blends.
- Aspartic Acid
- Amino acid humectant and conditioner, common in rinse-off products; low levels mild, high levels may shift pH
- Glycine
- Humectant amino acid, 1–3%; small molecule, low irritation.
- Serine
- Humectant amino acid, 1–3%; high water solubility, compatible with sensitive skin.
- Valine
- Amino acid humectant, common in amino acid cleansers and sprays; mild, suitable for all skin types
- Proline
- Proline, amino-acid humectant; boosts stratum corneum hydration, stable at pH 4-5.
- Threonine
- Threonine, essential amino acid for hair/skin; blended with other AAs for balance.
- Isoleucine
- Amino acid for hair and skin conditioning and antistatic purposes; often blended; check taste if high.
- Copper Gluconate
- Copper gluconate; trace antioxidant/repair agent. Use <0.05%; high levels cause color change/irritation.
- Histidine
- Amino acid humectant and antistatic agent; pH-dependent behavior, consider buffering in formulation.
- Phenylalanine
- Amino acid for hair and skin conditioning; usually part of a blend, no significant standalone efficacy data
