Formulation view Uses purified water and a high-oil phase of cocoa, mango, and shea butters for intense occlusion. Cetyl alcohol boosts viscosity, while cyclohicone improves spreadability. Sugar alcohols and squalane offer hygroscopic moisture. Preserved with phenoxyethanol. Ideal for dry skin needing heavy locking. Note: The blend of waxes and silicones balances richness and feel, though comedogenic risk exists.

Ingredients explained
- Purified Water
- Deionized or purified water serving as the formulation solvent base; requires protection from microbial contamination, typically constitutes the majority of the formula.
- Emulsifying Wax
- Not decoded yet
- Cocoa Butter
- Not decoded yet
- Mango Butter
- Not decoded yet
- Shea Butter
- Natural butter providing emollient and occlusive moisturizing; used as emollient and emulsifier.
- Cetyl Alcohol
- Cetyl alcohol for emulsification/thickening; high concentration >10% may irritate.
- Cyclomethicone
- Volatile silicone for light feel; contains D4 restricted by EU, must be <0.1% after 2026
- Stearic Acid
- Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel
- Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer
- High-molecular-weight thickener and emulsion stabilizer; requires electrolytes or acid adjustment near isoelectric point for optimal performance.
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Xylitylglucoside
- Polyol humectant with high water absorption and fresh feel; often co-used with propylene glycol for enhanced hydration.
- Squalane
- Emollient from plants or synthetic; light texture
- Anhydroxylitol
- Anhydrous xylitol, potent humectant; high hygroscopicity may cause stickiness at high levels.
- Dimethicone 350
- Not decoded yet
- Vitamin E Acetate
- Not decoded yet
- Xylitol
- Polyol humectant, sweet taste; water-soluble, high hygroscopy, excess draws moisture.
- Polysorbate 60
- Non-ionic emulsifier and solubilizer for O/W or W/O stability; may cause mild stinging on sensitive skin, typically 1-5%.
- Butylated Hydroxytoluene
- BHT synthetic antioxidant for lipid stability; check EU labeling limits and sensitivity issues.
- Imidurea
- Small molecule urea derivative for potent humectancy at low levels.
- Perfume
- Perfume/Fragrance blend. Opaque composition, a leading cause of contact dermatitis. Must list specific EU 26 allergens if present. Patch test required.
- Ethylhexylglycerin
- Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel
- Disodium Edetate
- Not decoded yet
- Sorbitan Isostearate
- Non-ionic emulsifier (low HLB); typically used in blends, low comedogenicity, soft skin feel.
- Glucose
- Low-MW humectant and buffer; high hygroscopicity requires careful preservation and humidity control.
- Triethanolamine
- Triethanolamine for buffering; restricted, limit concentration to avoid high pH and irritation
