- Stearyl Alcohol
- Stearic alcohol; fatty alcohol for emulsion thickening/structure, often blended with soaps, moderate comedogenicity.
- Cetyl Alcohol
- Cetyl alcohol for emulsification/thickening; high concentration >10% may irritate.
- PPG-3 Benzyl Ether Myristate
- PPG-3 benzyl ether myristate, emollient emulsifier; contains PEG-like structure, low viscosity solvent, check ionic compatibility.
- Tocopherol
- Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light
- Gardenia Taitensis Flower Extract
- Gardenia flower extract for skin conditioning and smoothness; verify activity and stability.
- Laurdimonium Hydroxypropyl Hydrolyzed Keratin
