Ingredients explained
- Aqua
- Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Oryza Sativa Bran Oil
- Rice bran oil rich in oryzanol and linoleic acid for conditioning; moderate comedogenic rating, mind oxidative stability.
- Tocopheryl Acetate
- Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light
- Octyldodecanol
- Light emollient/emulsifier at 1-5%; low comedogenic, non-greasy feel, broadly compatible, sensitive-skin friendly.
- Orbignya Oleifera Seed Oil
- Baobab seed oil; highly saturated fat oil. Emollient and nourishing, rich feel, prone to frosting.
- Glyceryl Stearate Citrate
- Emulsifying stabilizer and emollient at 2–5%; provides creamy texture, check compatibility with anionic surfactants
- Cetyl Alcohol
- Cetyl alcohol for emulsification/thickening; high concentration >10% may irritate.
- Dicaprylyl Ether
- Lightweight diester solvent and emollient, non-greasy feel; common oil phase carrier; low irritation.
- Panthenol
- Panthenol (vitamin B5) at 1–5%; moisturizing and reparative, supports barrier recovery
- Glyceryl Stearate
- Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification
- Caprylyl Glycol
- Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol
- Xanthan Gum
- Natural thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, pH-stable, requires full hydration
- Ectoin
- Cosmectin and skin protector, enhances skin tolerance; water-soluble, 0.1–5% common, compatible with most systems
- Allantoin
- Skin soother at 0.5-2%; promotes cell regeneration
- Caprylhydroxamic Acid
- Chelating agent to stabilize metal ions; often paired with antioxidants for system stability, used at low levels
- Ubiquinone
- Coenzyme Q10 analog used as an antioxidant; prone to discoloration, needs protection from light and air.
- Sodium Hyaluronate
- Potent humectant at 0.1–2%; different MW for penetration depth, high levels may draw moisture
- Hydrolyzed Sodium Hyaluronate
- Low-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid derivative with better penetration and strong hydration; different molecular weights provide hydration at various depths, typical concentration 0.1-1%.
- Tocopherol
- Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light
