Free of parabensFree of siliconesFree of sulfatesFree of formaldehyde releasersContains alcoholContains animal-derivedContains fragranceContains EU-26 allergensContains PEGContains essential oilsContains mineral oil

Formulation view Water and glycerin base with polyglyceryl emulsifiers and cetearyl alcohol. Alcohol aids solubility; butylene glycol provides hydration. Contains glycyrrhizinate for soothing, hyaluronic acid, and tocopherol. Suitable for hydrating lip care if alcohol-tolerant. Factory note: High alcohol content requires a robust preservative system and careful balancing of volatility with moisturization.

Ingredients explained

Aqua

Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical

Glycerin

Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives

Methyl Hydrogenated Rosinate

Methyl hydrogenated rosin, film former and emollient; pine-derived, low viscosity, used for clear films, watch for odor residue.

Butylene Glycol

Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel

Polyglyceryl-2 Triisostearate

Mild non-ionic emulsifier for creams; oily feel, suitable for dry skin, control usage for oily skin

Alcohol

Ethanol for solubility/drying at 5-15%; high conc. is drying/irritating, avoid lip/eye, low residue, balance with humectants.

Polyglycerin-3

Not decoded yet

Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer

High-molecular-weight thickener and emulsion stabilizer; requires electrolytes or acid adjustment near isoelectric point for optimal performance.

Squalane

Emollient from plants or synthetic; light texture

Polyurethane-35

Not decoded yet

1,2-Hexanediol

Polyol solvent and preservative booster at 1–5%; light feel, can replace some traditional preservatives

Lecithin

Phospholipid emulsifier at 1-5%; biocompatible, moisturizing/antioxidant, prone to oxidation (add TBHQ), mild for sensitive skin.

Menthoxypropanediol

Menthol derivative; cooling agent for immediate freshness; concentration control to avoid irritation.

Parfum

Fragrance for scent; may contain allergens, caution for sensitive skin, full labeling required.

Sodium Hyaluronate

Potent humectant at 0.1–2%; different MW for penetration depth, high levels may draw moisture

Trimethylolpropane Triisostearate

Triester emollient for rich moisturization and film; non-volatile, low comedogenicity

Polysorbate 60

Non-ionic emulsifier and solubilizer for O/W or W/O stability; may cause mild stinging on sensitive skin, typically 1-5%.

Hydroxyacetophenone

Hydroxyacetophenone as antioxidant; often boosts Vitamin C, works in acidic pH.

Sodium Benzoate

Preservative booster, effective below pH 4.5; combinable with sorbates

Prunus Avium Seed Oil

Cherry seed oil; light emollient and emulsion stabilizer; contains oleic acid, prone to oxidation

Ammonium Glycyrrhizate

Soothing anti-inflammatory and emulsifier; derived from licorice, minor allergen risk

Sorbitan Isostearate

Non-ionic emulsifier (low HLB); typically used in blends, low comedogenicity, soft skin feel.

Tocopherol

Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light

Methylpropanediol

Diol solvent and extraction carrier; enhances solubility of actives, low irritation profile.

Ethyl Vanillin

Synthetic fragrance component; mild aroma and soothing feel, potential sensitization at high levels, label per EU regulations.

Citric Acid

Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH

Aluminum Hydroxide

Aluminum hydroxide for emollient/thickening; opacifier, used in antiperspirants, particulate risk.

Caprylyl Glycol

Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol

Capsicum Frutescens Fruit Extract

Capsicum fruit extract with capsaicin; highly irritating, trace or desugared use, avoid eye contact.

Propyl Gallate

Oil-soluble antioxidant for oil stability; mild skin irritant.

Phenylpropanol

Phenylpropanol for fragrance and solvent; allergen risk, requires assessment

Pentaerythrityl Tetra-Di-T-Butyl Hydroxyhydrocinnamate

High-efficiency lipid-soluble antioxidant preventing oil rancidity; very low usage, typically 0.05-0.1%, ensure even distribution, avoid metal-catalyzed oxidation.

Ci 77891

Titanium dioxide inorganic pigment and UV filter; assess inhalation risk for nano-forms and EU restrictions

Ci 15850

Synthetic dye, red 57; restricted to hair dyeing in EU, not for topical cosmetics.

Ci 17200

Acid Red 33 hair dye; restricted use, potential scalp irritation

Ci 45410

Acid Red 9, a dye used in hair coloring; restricted to rinse-off hair dye with strict residue limits.

Ci 15985

Synthetic colorant Yellow 4; known maximum usage limits, potential allergy for some, add per regulations with batch records.
