Ingredients explained

Aqua

Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

Light occlusive and solvent at 1–10%; non-greasy feel, suitable for oily and combination skin

Glyceryl stearate citrate

Emulsifying stabilizer and emollient at 2–5%; provides creamy texture, check compatibility with anionic surfactants

Glycerin

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

Octyldodecanol

Light emollient/emulsifier at 1-5%; low comedogenic, non-greasy feel, broadly compatible, sensitive-skin friendly.

Betaine

Betaine for mild moisturizing/surfactant; low concentration 1-2% common, high may irritate.

Cyclodextrin

Cyclodextrin; used as a stabilizer or solubilizer to improve solubility of active ingredients and fragrances

Cetearyl isononanoate

Blended ester emollient offering extensibility and lightness; non-comedogenic, good for oily to combo skin

C12-15 alkyl benzoate

C12-15 alkyl benzoate; emollient, emulsifier, and antistatic; aids stability and smoothness, moderate low comedogenicity.

Propanediol

Polyol solvent at 1–5%; light feel, aids solubilization, propylene glycol alternative

Shea Butter

Natural butter providing emollient and occlusive moisturizing; used as emollient and emulsifier.

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

Hydrogenated Polydecene

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

1,2-Hexanediol

Polyol solvent and preservative booster at 1–5%; light feel, can replace some traditional preservatives

Sorbitan laurate

O/W emulsifier; low-comedogenic ester, verify emulsion stability.

Sodium levulinate

Sodium levulinate, natural-derived humectant; generally mild, often used in blends.

Sodium anisate

Benzoate-based preservative component; used in combinations for antimicrobial effect, slight fragrance, control concentration.

Caprylhydroxamic acid

Chelating agent to stabilize metal ions; often paired with antioxidants for system stability, used at low levels

Tocopherol

Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light

o-Cymen-5-ol

Antioxidant and antimicrobial; low levels for preservation; irritating at high concentrations, restricted use.

Lauryl glucoside

Mild nonionic surfactant for cleansing; 1-5%, suitable for sensitive skin

Magnolia Officinalis Bark Extract

Magnolia bark extract with honokiol; antimicrobial and conditioning, use within safe effective range.

Bromelain

Bromelain protease at 0.1–1% for gentle exfoliation; protein hydrolase, avoid long-term co-use with strong acids
