Ingredients explained

Aqua

Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical

Ethylene/Acrylic Acid Copolymer

Water-soluble film former for matte feel; often used in emulsion form

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

Propylene Glycol Dicaprylate/Dicaprate

Lightweight emollient, low viscosity, refreshes skin feel, high compatibility.

Squalane

Emollient from plants or synthetic; light texture

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

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

Steareth-21

Not decoded yet

Linum Usitatissimum Seed Extract

Flaxseed extract for moisture and natural aroma; contains oleic acid with moderate comedogenicity, limit levels for oily skin.

Phenoxyethanol

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

Stearalkonium Hectorite

Inorganic clay gellant with silky feel; must disperse well, high local dose can irritate.

Cetyl Alcohol

Cetyl alcohol for emulsification/thickening; high concentration >10% may irritate.

Stearyl Alcohol

Stearic alcohol; fatty alcohol for emulsion thickening/structure, often blended with soaps, moderate comedogenicity.

Hexyldecanol

Lightweight synthetic ester; provides non-greasy feel, fast-drying, low irritation

Steareth-2

Not decoded yet

Glyceryl Hydroxystearate

Polyol ester emulsifier and emollient; potential comedogenicity at high levels.

Sodium Polyacrylate

Superabsorbent resin, <1%; gels with electrolytes, ionic strength control required.

Alcohol

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

Caprylyl Glycol

Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol

Palmitic Acid

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

Stearic Acid

Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel

Dimethicone

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

Propylene Carbonate

Inert solvent and viscosity modifier; often used as penetration enhancer, mild at low levels

Tocopheryl Acetate

Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light

Avena Sativa Kernel Extract

Antioxidant and soothing extract; mild abrasive properties, common in conditioning formulas

Althaea Officinalis Root Extract

Marshmallow root extract rich in polysaccharides; forms a protective film for moisturizing and soothing skin conditioning.

Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis Fruit Extract

Sweet almond fruit extract with emollient oils and sterols, conditioning agent; note nut source allergen risk

Hesperidin Methyl Chalcone

Antioxidant that protects other actives from oxidative degradation, enhancing product shelf life and stability.

Glyceryl Acrylate/Acrylic Acid Copolymer

Acrylate copolymer for thickening and moisturizing; synthetic polymer with low sensitization risk.

Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer

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

Tetrasodium Edta

Chelator removing metal ions to enhance antioxidant and preservative efficacy; very low usage, typically 0.05-0.1%, no direct skincare function.

Steareth-20

Not decoded yet

Tromethamine

pH adjuster, alkaline; precise dosing required

Ci 77891

Titanium dioxide inorganic pigment and UV filter; assess inhalation risk for nano-forms and EU restrictions

Sodium Hyaluronate

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

Theobroma Cacao Extract

Cacao extract providing antioxidants and conditioning, aids skin elasticity.

Pyrus Malus Fruit Extract

Apple fruit extract, polyphenols for conditioning and antioxidant; batch variation needs standardization

Sanguisorba Officinalis Root Extract

Astringent and soothing claims; used in toners/cleansers; monitor for plant protein allergies.

Brassica Campestris Sterols

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

Xanthan Gum

Natural thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, pH-stable, requires full hydration

Sodium Citrate

Sodium citrate for buffering and chelating; adjust pH, careful with strong acid reactions.

Potassium Sorbate

Preservative effective below pH 6; combinable with sodium benzoate

Chlorphenesin

Phenolic antimicrobial; strict EU limits apply, potential allergen, careful dosing required for leave-on products.

Caprylic/Capric/Succinic Triglyceride

Ester-based emulsifier and emollient; oil phase component, aids emulsification and improves skin feel, low comedogenicity.

Dipeptide-2

Not decoded yet

Tocopherol

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

Citric Acid

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

Eriobotrya Japonica Leaf Extract

Loquat leaf extract; rich in flavonoids, high batch-to-batch variability

Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7

Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 boosts collagen; use 0.1–1%, formulate with lipid carriers

Plankton Extract

Plankton extract for skin conditioning; low concentrations typical, ensure source purity to avoid microbial contamination.
