Ingredients explained

Water

Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth

Butylene Glycol

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

Glycerin

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

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

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

Isononyl Isononanoate

Light, low-viscosity ester emollient; excellent spreadability, good for gels and light lotions

1,2-Hexanediol

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

Castor Oil/IPDI Copolymer

Castor oil/IPDI copolymer; film former. **High risk**: IPDI is a restricted isocyanate. Strict regulatory review required.

Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil

Sunflower seed oil for emollient/occlusive; high linoleic acid, low comedogenicity.

Hexyldecyl Myristoyl Methylaminopropionate

Waxy ester emollient for smoothness; comedogenic potential, caution for oily skin.

Squalane

Emollient from plants or synthetic; light texture

Arginine

Arginine for moisturizing/conditioning; amino acid, high biocompatibility, often used in blends.

Carbomer

Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility

Lithospermum Erythrorhizon Root Extract

Lithospermum erythrorhizon extract; naphthoquinones, 0.1–1%; antimicrobial, stains red, photo-sensitive, isolate light

Lactobacillus Ferment Lysate

Lactobacillus ferment lysate for skin conditioning; provides soothing and hydration, low sensitization risk if sterile.

Chamomilla Recutita Flower Oil

German chamomile oil with alpha-bisabolol for soothing; essential oil with allergen risk, use low, label as fragrance.

Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil

Macadamia oil, rich in palmitoleic, good penetration; light feel; non-comedogenic.

Retinol

Highly active and unstable, needs robust antioxidant encapsulation; 0.1-1.0%, pregnancy contraindicated

Hydrogenated Lecithin

Emulsifier from lecithin; stable, used in powder emulsions

Brassica Campestris Sterols

Rapeseed sterols, plant sterol esters, emollient conditioner at 0.5–3%; rich feel, low comedogenic risk

Cholesterol

Cholesterol; barrier repair lipid mimicking stratum corneum; often blended with ceramides, plant or fermentation source.

Polyglyceryl-10 Laurate

Mild non-ionic emulsifier for O/W systems; cetyl ester structure may irritate sensitive skin, use at 0.5-3%.

Phytosteryl/Behenyl/Octyldodecyl Lauroyl Glutamate

Amino-acid ester for emulsification and conditioning; mild, no public comedogenic data

Aluminum/Magnesium Hydroxide Stearate

Al-Mg stearate for emulsification and viscosity; metal soaps may migrate at high temp.

Pentaerythrityl Tetra-Di-T-Butyl Hydroxyhydrocinnamate

High-efficiency lipid-soluble antioxidant preventing oil rancidity; very low usage, typically 0.05-0.1%, ensure even distribution, avoid metal-catalyzed oxidation.

Potassium Cetyl Phosphate

Cetyl phosphate potassium, O/W emulsifier; pH-sensitive, often requires buffering.

Chitosan

Chitosan film former and hair fixative; crustacean-derived, label as allergen, high concentrations may cause itching.

Tris Citrate

TRIS Citrate buffer; high concentrations may irritate ocular mucosa.

Behenyl Alcohol

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

Pentaerythrityl Tetraethylhexanoate

Esther emollient for a light, silky feel; heavy at high concentrations.

Niacinamide

Niacinamide at 2–5%; improves texture, controls oil, brightens; high levels may cause sensitivity

Palmitic Acid

Palmitic acid for emulsification/emollient; solid fat, high melting point, occlusive.

Glyceryl Stearate

Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification

Sodium Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer

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

Polyisobutene

Inert film former and occlusive; increases viscosity, slippery feel, used in lipsticks

Sorbitan Oleate

Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside

Caprylyl/capryl glucoside, mild sugar surfactant; low irritation, moderate cleansing

Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltaurate/VP Copolymer

Cationic polymer providing suspension, thickening, and conditioning; often paired with anionic thickening systems, low usage, imparts slip.

Copernicia Cerifera Wax
