Ingredients explained
- Aqua
- Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical
- Sodium Laureth Sulfate
- Common anionic surfactant, strong foam but drying; check cationic compatibility, high eye irritation
- Cocamidopropyl Betaine
- Cocamidopropyl betaine; zwitterionic co-surfactant reducing irritation and boosting foam, common in mild cleansers.
- Cocamide MEA
- Foam booster and thickener for cleansing products; 1-3%, check compatibility with anionic surfactants
- Guar Hydroxypropyltrimonium Chloride
- Cationic guar derivative for antistatic, film-forming, viscosity control; common in hair/skin conditioning
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Sodium Citrate
- Sodium citrate for buffering and chelating; adjust pH, careful with strong acid reactions.
- Parfum
- Fragrance for scent; may contain allergens, caution for sensitive skin, full labeling required.
- Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein
- Hydrolyzed protein for hair and skin conditioning; potential allergen, use low levels in sensitive products
- Citric Acid
- Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH
- Disodium EDTA
- Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy
- Panthenol
- Panthenol (vitamin B5) at 1–5%; moisturizing and reparative, supports barrier recovery
- Thiodipropionic Acid
- Not decoded yet
- PPG-12-Buteth-16
- Not decoded yet
- Hydrolyzed Wheat Starch
- Hydrolyzed wheat starch for moisture and viscosity; gluten-derived, caution for gluten-sensitive or allergic populations.
- Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid
- Low-MW humectant with superior penetration vs high-MW; 0.1-0.5% typical, hygroscopic, store dry to prevent clumping.
- Soy Amino Acids
- Not decoded yet
- Wheat Amino Acids
- Wheat amino acids for hair/skin; contains gluten, allergy caution
- Methylchloroisothiazolinone
- Preservative (MCI); highly sensitizing, use only in rinse-off, avoid leave-on products.
- Arginine Hcl
- Amphoteric amino acid salt, moisturizer and buffer; high levels may irritate sensitive skin.
- Serine
- Humectant amino acid, 1–3%; high water solubility, compatible with sensitive skin.
- Threonine
- Threonine, essential amino acid for hair/skin; blended with other AAs for balance.
- Methylisothiazolinone
- Strong preservative; high allergy risk, EU restricted for leave-on products, high formulation risk
- Limonene
- Natural fragrance solvent, EU allergen; poor photostability
- Hexyl Cinnamal
- Common fragrance component (jasmine/vanilla note); listed EU allergen, requires labeling at >10ppm (leave-on).
- Linalool
- Natural fragrance component at ≤0.05%; one of EU 26 allergens, caution for sensitive skin
- Benzyl Salicylate
- UV absorber/light stabilizer, restricted in EU; potential sensitizer, risk assessment needed.
