Ingredients explained
- Water
- Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
- Cetearyl Isononanoate*
- Not decoded yet
- Butylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel
- Glycerin*
- Glycerin; workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives for winter formulas.
- Cetyl Alcohol*
- Not decoded yet
- Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis Oil*
- Sweet almond oil, excellent emollient; highly comedogenic, caution for oily skin, verify absence of allergenic proteins.
- Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil*
- Jojoba oil, a liquid wax mimicking sebum; low comedogenicity, suitable for most skin types
- Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate*
- Mild amino acid surfactant, low irritation and easy rinse, suitable for baby products
- Decyl Glucoside*
- Mild non-ionic surfactant, moderate lather, extremely low eye irritation
- Butyrospermum Parkii Butter Extract*
- Shea butter rich in fats/vitamins, high occlusion; high loads may be comedogenic, caution for sensitive skin.
- Maltodextrin*
- Not decoded yet
- Carbomer
- Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility
- Potassium Cetyl Phosphate
- Cetyl phosphate potassium, O/W emulsifier; pH-sensitive, often requires buffering.
