Ingredients explained

Aqua

Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical

Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract

Aloe vera leaf extract for soothing and humectant; monitor polysaccharide level and endotoxins

Glycerin

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

Ethylhexyl Palmitate

Synthetic ester emollient with light skin feel; small molecule, slightly comedogenic, use cautiously for acne-prone skin, often blended with other oils.

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

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

Butylene Glycol

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

Triethyl Citrate

Solvent/plasticizer at 1–10%; provides fresh feel, slight citrus scent

Polyglyceryl-3 Methylglucose Distearate

Non-ionic emulsifier at 1–3%; mild, easily combined with other surfactants.

Cetearyl Alcohol

Fatty alcohol emulsifier at 1-5%; non-ionic surfactant

Erythritol

Polyol humectant with light feel; high hygroscopy, watch in dry climates.

Rosmarinus Officinalis Leaf Water

Rosemary leaf water for mild scenting/antimicrobial support; natural actives require microbial stability checks

Lavandula Angustifolia Water

Lavender water; provides fragrance and conditioning; contains limonene/linalool allergens, caution for sensitive users.

1,2-Hexanediol

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

Hydrogenated Lecithin

Emulsifier from lecithin; stable, used in powder emulsions

Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil

Common in dry/damaged hair; superior penetration vs mineral oils, low comedogenic risk, poor oxidative stability.

Sodium Hyaluronate

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

Caprylyl Glycol

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

Illicium Verum Fruit Extract

Star anise extract with anethole; fragrant and conditioning, allergen present, high levels risk sensitivity.

Glyceryl Glucoside

Polyol humectant with light, non-sticky feel; less tacky than glycerin

Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer

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

Arginine

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

Xanthan Gum

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

Tocopherol

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

Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil

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