Ingredients explained
- Aqua
- Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Coco-Caprylate
- Coconut/caprylate ester for light emollient finish; balance with humectants.
- Isostearyl Alcohol
- Non-ionic emulsifier and thickener providing body; at 2-5% enhances emulsion stability.
- Butylene Glycol Cocoate
- Butylene glycol cocoate, non-ionic emulsifier and emollient; low irritancy, low comedogenicity, used in mild emulsifying systems.
- Squalane
- Emollient from plants or synthetic; light texture
- Panthenol
- Panthenol (vitamin B5) at 1–5%; moisturizing and reparative, supports barrier recovery
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Gellan Gum
- Gellan gum; water-soluble polymer; gel former; high transparency, strong gelling, for aqueous phase stability.
- Caffeine
- Active ingredient, 0.1–2%; promotes circulation, irritation risk at high concentration.
- Xanthan Gum
- Natural thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, pH-stable, requires full hydration
- Parfum
- Fragrance for scent; may contain allergens, caution for sensitive skin, full labeling required.
- Retinyl Palmitate
- Vitamin A ester for skin conditioning; light-sensitive, requires protection, avoid in pregnancy.
- Ethylhexylglycerin
- Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel
- Ethylcellulose
- Water-insoluble film former and viscosity builder for suspensions; requires dispersion or premixing.
- Pantolactone
- Pantolactone, humectant; hydrolyzes to release panthenol, improves skin hydration, low level use, high safety
- Citric Acid
- Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH
- Tocopherol
- Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light
- Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5
- Peptide actives for skin conditioning; typically used at low levels.
