Ingredients explained

Aqua

Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical

Glycerin

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

Butylene Glycol

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

Pentaerythrityl Tetraisostearate

Mild emulsifier and emollient with cleansing function; suitable for baby and sensitive skin, low irritancy.

Butylene Glycol Dicaprylate/Dicaprate

Light diester emollient, light and non-greasy; often used as solvent; oxidizes easily, needs antioxidants.

Cyclopentasiloxane

Cyclopentasiloxane for emollient/solvent; volatile silicone, smooth feel, check VOC regulations.

Cetyl Ethylhexanoate

Synthetic oil providing slip; large molecule, low penetration, non-comedogenic, suitable for dry or rough skin.

Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil

Occlusive emollient for smooth feel; high levels may be comedogenic, use caution for acne-prone skin

Dimethicone

Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin

Glyceryl Linolenate

Emollient/moisturizer; potential allergen, caution in sensitive skin

Stearic Acid

Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel

Hydroxypropyl Bispalmitamide MEA

Bio-inspired lipid emulsifier/conditioner providing smooth feel; ester-based surfactant.

Cyclohexasiloxane

Volatile cyclic silicone evaporating without residue; ensure compliance with EU limits on cyclic polydimethylsiloxanes, use octamer

Squalane

Emollient from plants or synthetic; light texture

Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract

Green tea extract for antioxidant/astringent; contains caffeine, possible irritation in sensitive skin.

Orchid Extract

Orchid extract, moisturizing; efficacy varies by species, standardized extract preferred.

Citrus Unshiu Peel Extract

Citrus peel extract providing fragrance

Opuntia Coccinellifera Fruit Extract

Botanical fruit extract for skin conditioning; usually at low levels, act in synergy.

Camellia Japonica Leaf Extract

Camellia leaf extract providing skin conditioning and antioxidant support; gentle with no public irritancy or comedogenic data.

Borago Officinalis Seed Oil

Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) rich oil; excellent for repair but prone to oxidation, requires antioxidants

Sodium Hyaluronate

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

Ascorbyl Palmitate

Ascorbyl palmitate, lipophilic Vit C ester, antioxidant; oxidizes, needs light/air protection.

Niacinamide

Niacinamide at 2–5%; improves texture, controls oil, brightens; high levels may cause sensitivity

Allantoin

Skin soother at 0.5-2%; promotes cell regeneration

Phytosphingosine

Phytosphingosine barrier repair ingredient, 0.1–1%; water-soluble, good for dry skin.

Mannitol

Polyol humectant with binding/skin conditioning properties; high levels may cause osmotic irritation

Arachidyl Alcohol

Waxy emulsion stabilizer and thickener, often paired with cetearyl alcohol; heavy feel, good for creams

Cholesterol

Cholesterol; barrier repair lipid mimicking stratum corneum; often blended with ceramides, plant or fermentation source.

Tocopheryl Acetate

Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light

Arachidyl Glucoside

Mild non-ionic emulsifier and emollient, PEG-free; co-soluble with stearoyl lactylates

C12-20 Alkyl Glucoside

Non-ionic surfactant for mild cleansing and emulsification; plant-based glucoside, suitable for sensitive and baby skin.

Glyceryl Arachidonate

Biomimetic lipid, barrier repair, 1-2%; lipophilic, oxidizes easily, add antioxidants.

Glyceryl Linolenate

Emollient/moisturizer; potential allergen, caution in sensitive skin

Glyceryl Oleate

Glyceride-based emulsifier and emolient with mild perfuming properties.

Glyceryl Caprylate

Mild emulsifier/deodorant at 0.5-2%; polyol ester, high humectancy, low irritancy, check cationic surfactant compatibility.

Polyglyceryl-10 Pentastearate

Polyglyceryl ester for mild emollient/emulsifying; long-chain structure for rich feel.

Sorbitan Isostearate

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

Ethylhexylglycerin

Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel

C14-22 Alcohols

Fatty alcohol blend for emulsion stability and texture; may contain myristyl alcohol, moderate comedogenic risk.

Behenyl Alcohol

Fat alcohol emulsifier/thickener at 1-3%; low comedogenic risk, check solubility in strong acid/base systems, add antioxidants.

Dimethiconol

Dimethiconol; silicone emollient providing silky feel and reducing friction; moderate comedogenicity, avoid excess.

Hydroxypropyl Bislauramide Mea

Polyhydroxy acid amide MEA salt for gentle skin conditioning and feel. Low irritation, non-comedogenic.

Polyacrylate-13

Not decoded yet

Polyisobutene

Inert film former and occlusive; increases viscosity, slippery feel, used in lipsticks

Polysorbate 20

Non-ionic emulsifier and cleansing surfactant; contains PEG, control microbial load.

Carbomer

Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility

Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate

Mild emulsifier/stabilizer for O/W; control usage to prevent viscosity issues

Potassium Hydroxide

Strong alkali pH adjuster, trace usage (<0.1%); corrosive, must be neutralized.

Myristic Acid

Saturated fatty acid, saponification feedstock; insoluble alone, pairs with stearic acid.

Lauric Acid

Lauric acid for cleansing and emulsification; high comedogenic rating, recommend limiting to 1-2% or combining with other acids.

Palmitic Acid

Palmitic acid for emulsification/emollient; solid fat, high melting point, occlusive.

Trimethylsiloxysilicate

Silicate powder, oil-absorbing emollient; insoluble, high levels feel powdery.

Acrylates/Ammonium Methacrylate Copolymer

Anionic polymer for antistatic properties and film formation; common in blow-dry sprays, forms easily washed-off film.
