Ingredients explained
- Water
- Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
- Sodium Laureth Sulfate
- Common anionic surfactant, strong foam but drying; check cationic compatibility, high eye irritation
- Disodium Laureth Sulfosuccinate
- Mild anionic surfactant, boosts foam/cleaning; low irritancy, common in wash formulations
- Disodium Cocoamphodiacetate
- Amphoteric surfactant for cleansing and foam boosting; milder than sulfates, low comedogenic risk.
- Glycol Distearate
- Glycol distearate for thickening and emulsification; non-ionic, improves viscosity
- Butylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel
- Algae Extract
- Algae extract with humectant and conditioning effects; may contain natural fragrant components.
- Hedychium Coronarium Root Extract
- Jasmine root extract; used for fragrance and soothing; essential oil components, monitor allergens
- Witch Hazel Leaf Extract
- Witch hazel leaf extract; astringent tannins for pore tightening and oil control. High levels may dry out, suits oily skin.
- Actinidia Chinensis Fruit Extract
- Botanical extract used as a skin conditioning agent
- Cucumber Fruit Extract
- Plant soothing conditioner with antioxidants; no major compatibility issues
- Glycolic Acid
- Glycolic acid for exfoliation; requires buffering at concentrations >10%, avoid combination with other acids.
- Sodium PCA
- Sodium PCA, NMF component, 1-10% humectant; salty/tacky at high levels.
- PEG-8 Distearate
- PEG-8 distearate ester emulsifier for O/W; monitor PEG sensitivity considerations and overall system stability.
- Polyquaternium-4
- Not decoded yet
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Methylparaben
- Preservative, narrow spectrum; often combined, check allergen risk and regulatory limits.
- Propylparaben
- Medium-chain preservative; restricted use, pH-sensitive efficacy.
- Limonene
- Natural fragrance solvent, EU allergen; poor photostability
- Hydroxyisohexyl 3-Cyclohexene Carboxaldehyde
- Prohibited in EU cosmetics; restricted due to irritation risks.
- Fragrance
- Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components
