Ingredients explained

Aqua

Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical

Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice

Natural humectant and soother with high water activity; requires preservative system, generally well-tolerated

Alcohol Denat

Denatured ethanol; solvent, penetration enhancer, and quick-dry agent; high % may compromise barrier in dry skin.

Isoamyl Laurate

Lightweight ester emollient; fast-drying, non-greasy feel, suitable for oily skin or summer formulations

Glycerin

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

Dicaprylyl Ether

Lightweight diester solvent and emollient, non-greasy feel; common oil phase carrier; low irritation.

Propanediol

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

Caffeine

Active ingredient, 0.1–2%; promotes circulation, irritation risk at high concentration.

Sodium Hyaluronate

Potent humectant at 0.1–2%; different MW for penetration depth, high levels may draw moisture

Vaccinium Myrtillus Fruit Extract

Bilberry extract; anthocyanin rich; gentle antioxid/conditioning, no pub comed data

Escin

Horse chestnut extract for venous circulation and anti-inflammatory; caution near eyes; potential plant-based allergen

Theobroma Cacao Extract

Cacao extract providing antioxidants and conditioning, aids skin elasticity.

Centella Asiatica Extract

Centella asiatica extract for soothing/repair; low irritation, common in sensitive skin products.

Menthol

Cooling and soothing agent at 0.5–2%; high levels may cause sensitivity or irritation, use caution around eyes and mucous membranes

Carnitine Isomerized Linoleate

Not decoded yet

Lactobacillus Ferment

Probiotic ferment filtrate for conditioning; complex mix, check allergens and preservative residues

Carbomer

Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility

Gelidium Cartilagineum Extract

Red algae extract acting as a skin protecting agent, often used for hydration or soothing, check stability.

Ruscus Aculeatus Root Extract

Plant extract with polysaccharides and flavonoids; for firming and anti-irritation, < 1%.

Menthyl Lactate

Menthyl lactate, cooling and fragrance agent, provides mild menthol sensation for refreshing

Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer

Crosspolymer for thickening/film; needs neutralization to pH 7-8 to hydrate, check ion strength.

Propylene Glycol

Polyol humectant at 3-10%; hygroscopic, slight tackiness, mild irritation at high conc., verify preservative efficacy, no allergen.

Potassium Sorbate

Preservative effective below pH 6; combinable with sodium benzoate

Sodium Hydroxide

Strong base neutralizer for pH adjustment; handle with extreme care

Phenoxyethanol

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

Ethylhexylglycerin

Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel

Propylene Glycol Diethylhexanoate

Oil solvent and emollient, reduces viscosity, improves spreadability; bio-based source.

Phospholipids

Biomimetic repair and emollient, mimics skin lipids; typically processed at low temps, may be sticky at high levels

Sodium Phytate

Chelating agent stabilizes metal ions to prevent oxidative degradation; also used in oral care, high safety profile.

Phytosterols

Plant sterol mix for skin barrier repair and soothing; plant-derived, no reported sensitization.

Butylene Glycol

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

Beta-Sitosterol

Plant sterol for emulsion stability and barrier support; high levels may destabilize hydrophilic systems.

Ci 19140

Acid Yellow 23 lake; for coloring and hair dyeing. High water solubility and precipitation risk, pH control required.

Ci 42090

Acid Blue 9 lake; for coloring and brow tints. Non-permanent hair dye, watch for lake precipitation and batch shade variance.

Sodium Benzoate

Preservative booster, effective below pH 4.5; combinable with sorbates

Citric Acid

Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH
