Ingredients explained
- Water
- Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
- Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract
- Aloe vera leaf extract for soothing and humectant; monitor polysaccharide level and endotoxins
- Tridecyl Stearate
- Tridecyl stearate emollient; lightweight, moderate comedogenic
- Neopentyl Glycol Dicaprylate/Dicaprate
- Light emollient ester for fast spreadability and a light feel.
- Tridecyl Trimellitate
- Ester emollient for skin conditioning; lipophilic nature may increase comedogenicity for acne-prone skin.
- Stearic Acid
- Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel
- Propanediol
- Polyol solvent at 1–5%; light feel, aids solubilization, propylene glycol alternative
- Palmitic Acid
- Palmitic acid for emulsification/emollient; solid fat, high melting point, occlusive.
- Glyceryl Stearate SE
- Emulsifier at 1–3%; oil-phase ingredient, easy emulsification, low sensitization.
- Phenyl Trimethicone
- Aromatic modified silicone for high gloss and occlusion; inert, non-volatile, may leave surface residue
- Hyaluronic Acid
- High-water-binding humectant at 0.1-1%; high-MW for surface film, low-MW for dermal potential, check cationic compatibility.
- Butyrospermum Parkii Butter
- Shea butter for occlusive moisturizing; high melt point, rich texture, caution for oily skin.
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Betaine
- Betaine for mild moisturizing/surfactant; low concentration 1-2% common, high may irritate.
- Tremella Fuciformis Sporocarp Extract
- Tremella extract; strong humectant and antioxidant; water-soluble, suitable for anti-aging.
- Camellia Sinensis Extract
- Green tea extract, polyphenols, antioxidant, soothing, low comedogenic.
- Aspalathus Linearis Extract
- Rooibos tea extract with high antioxidant capacity; soothing, no known irritation
- Boswellia Serrata Extract
- Anti-inflammatory and soothing extract, 0.1–0.5%; contains boswellic acids, check compatibility with fragrances
- Honey Extract
- Humectant and skin conditioning agent; hygroscopic, sensitive to pH.
- Tetrapeptide-14
- Not decoded yet
- Tropaeolum Majus Flower/Leaf/Stem Extract
- Tropaeolum majus extract rich in flavonoids for skin conditioning and soothing; monitor concentration for plant sensitivities
- Retinyl Palmitate
- Vitamin A ester for skin conditioning; light-sensitive, requires protection, avoid in pregnancy.
- Ascorbyl Palmitate
- Ascorbyl palmitate, lipophilic Vit C ester, antioxidant; oxidizes, needs light/air protection.
- Tocopheryl Acetate
- Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light
- Polyacrylamide
- Film former and thickener for slip and feel; acrylamide monomer residue risk, strict QC required, restriction III/66
- Leuconostoc/Radish Root Ferment Filtrate
- Bio-fermented filtrate for antimicrobial and anti-dandruff effects; assess individual variability, avoid in known allergy.
- Phospholipids
- Biomimetic repair and emollient, mimics skin lipids; typically processed at low temps, may be sticky at high levels
- Beeswax
- Beeswax, natural thickener and film former; provides occlusive moisturization, natural honey scent, animal-derived, potential allergen
- Ceteareth-20
- Not decoded yet
- Laureth-7
- Mild non-ionic surfactant for emulsification and solubilization; biodegradable
- Citric Acid
- Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH
- Trisodium Ethylenediamine Disuccinate
- Mild chelator replacing EDTA; water-soluble, very low irritation, stabilizes metal ions
- Cetyl Palmitate
- Waxy ester increasing viscosity and providing heavy feel; used as emulsifier carrier, low comedogenicity, strong occlusion.
- C13-14 Isoparaffin
- Light hydrocarbon solvent providing emolliency and solubility; non-allergenic, note occlusive nature
- Butylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel
- Aminomethyl Propanol
- pH buffer at 0.1–1%; irritating at high levels, avoid direct mixing with strong acids/bases
