Ingredients explained

Aqua

Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical

Glycerol

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

DPG

Diethylenglycol butyl ether; humectant and solvent; potential allergen, test on sensitive skin.

Hydrogenated Polydecene

Hydrogenated polydecene, light mineral oil alternative, low comedogenic; silky, non-greasy.

Butylene Glycol

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

Triethylhexanoin

Light ester for non-greasy feel and fragrance; low allergenicity, high levels can act as solvent

Dimethicone

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

Glyceryl Stearate SE

Emulsifier at 1–3%; oil-phase ingredient, easy emulsification, low sensitization.

Aminopropyl Dimethicone

Aminomodified silicone; emulsifies well, adds slip and anti-static at 1–5%

PEG/PPG-17/4 DIMETHYL ETHER

PEG/PPG polymer humectant; high levels may cause tackiness, balance with other agents

Glycyl Glycine

Not decoded yet

Phytosteryl/Octyldodecyl Lauroyl Glutamate

Phytosterol blend for skin conditioning; gentle, barrier-repairing, low irritation.

Lysine HCL

Lysine HCl, amino acid for hair and skin conditioning, reduces protein loss

Scutellaria Baicalensis Root Extract

Scutellaria root extract with baicalin for antioxidant and soothing effects; also provides astringent and humectant properties.

Rosmarinus Officinalis Extract

Rosemary extract; antimicrobial; photo-toxic and allergen risks.

or Rosmarinus Officinalis Leaf Extract

Prunus Persica Kernel Extract

Not decoded yet

Saxifraga Sarmentosa Extract

Active extract with saponins and flavonoids; gentle humectant and barrier repair ingredient

Soluble collagen

Water-soluble collagen for hydration, film-forming, hair care; MW affects permeation/film

PEG-5 Glyceryl Stearate

Non-ionic emulsifier for O/W systems; contains PEG, check compatibility with ionic surfactants

Behenyl Alcohol

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

Stearic Acid

Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel

Isostearic Acid

Fatty acid derivative as emulsifier auxiliary and emollient; insoluble, requires homogenization, may feel slightly greasy

Behenic acid

Behenic acid, emulsifier and thickener; high comedogenic rating, limit use on acne-prone skin.

Carbomer

Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility

KOH

Not decoded yet

Sodium Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer

Acrylate copolymer for film/thickening; water-soluble, compatible, monitor residual monomers.

Isohexadecane

Lightweight mineral-oil-derived emollient and solvent; low viscosity, non-comedogenic, improves texture

Tween 80

Not decoded yet

Alcohol

Ethanol for solubility/drying at 5-15%; high conc. is drying/irritating, avoid lip/eye, low residue, balance with humectants.

Sorbitan Oleate

Non-ionic emulsifier for oil-in-water systems; plant-derived, check oxidative stability

vitamin E

Tocopherol antioxidant; >0.5% may need encapsulation or synergists to prevent oxidation.

Phenoxyethanol

Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin

Methyl Parahydroxybenzoate

Not decoded yet

Parfum

Fragrance for scent; may contain allergens, caution for sensitive skin, full labeling required.
