Ingredients explained
- Water
- Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Glyceryl Stearate SE
- Emulsifier at 1–3%; oil-phase ingredient, easy emulsification, low sensitization.
- Butyrospermum Parkii
- African oil/fat/wax; clarify form (oil, butter, or powder) as function depends on it.
- Isononyl Isononanoate
- Light, low-viscosity ester emollient; excellent spreadability, good for gels and light lotions
- Lauryl Laurate
- Ester emollient; provides slip, stable, low irritation risk.
- Ethyl Macadamiate
- Ethyl ester of macadamia oleic acid; lightweight skin conditioning; low comedogenicity
- Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil
- Common in dry/damaged hair; superior penetration vs mineral oils, low comedogenic risk, poor oxidative stability.
- Oryza Sativa Hull Powder
- Rice hull powder as physical exfoliant; gentle when finely milled, coarser particles may abrade skin.
- Laminaria Digitata Extract
- Seaweed extract for skin protection; moderate concentration to avoid osmotic irritation.
- Persea Gratissima Oil
- Avocado oil rich in fatty acids and vitamin E; occlusive moisturizer, use with caution on oily skin.
- Sesamum Indicum Oil Unsaponifiables
- Not decoded yet
- Triticum Vulgare Germ Oil Unsaponifiables
- Not decoded yet
- Persea Gratissima Oil Unsaponifiables
- Not decoded yet
- Padina Pavonica Extract
- Red algae extract; seaweed polysaccharides for hydration and smooth feel; typical use 0.1-1% in serums
- Corallina Officinalis Extract
- Corallina extract, polysaccharide-rich humectant/film former; algal source, batch variation.
- Acacia Decurrens Absolute
- Not decoded yet
- Rosa Damascena Flower Oil
- Rose essential oil with strong scent; contains allergens, requires IFRA compliance.
- Hexapeptide-9
- Hexapeptide-9 (Acetyl Hexapeptide); signal peptide for fibroblast stimulation, typically used at 0.5-1%.
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Cetyl Alcohol
- Cetyl alcohol for emulsification/thickening; high concentration >10% may irritate.
- Potassium Cetyl Phosphate
- Cetyl phosphate potassium, O/W emulsifier; pH-sensitive, often requires buffering.
- Sodium Polyacrylate
- Superabsorbent resin, <1%; gels with electrolytes, ionic strength control required.
- Butylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel
- Fragrance
- Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components
- Methylparaben
- Preservative, narrow spectrum; often combined, check allergen risk and regulatory limits.
- O-Cymen-5-Ol
- Antioxidant and antimicrobial; low levels for preservation; irritating at high concentrations, restricted use.
- Glyceryl Acrylate/Acrylic Acid Copolymer
- Acrylate copolymer for thickening and moisturizing; synthetic polymer with low sensitization risk.
- Ethylparaben
- Paraben preservative; EU restricted, watch total load and sensitive skin reactions
- Disodium EDTA
- Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy
- Tocopheryl Linoleate
- Vitamin E linoleate antioxidant and humectant; oil-soluble, oxidizes easily; use chelators and protect from light
- Propylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant at 3-10%; hygroscopic, slight tackiness, mild irritation at high conc., verify preservative efficacy, no allergen.
- Glyceryl Polyacrylate
- Water-soluble film former at 1–5%; light feel, soluble in polyols, non-occlusive
- Propylparaben
- Medium-chain preservative; restricted use, pH-sensitive efficacy.
- Hydroxyisohexyl 3-Cyclohexene Carboxaldehyde
- Prohibited in EU cosmetics; restricted due to irritation risks.
- Butylphenyl Methylpropional
- Synthetic fragrance with floral notes; EU regulations limit usage, strict monitoring required.
- Linalool
- Natural fragrance component at ≤0.05%; one of EU 26 allergens, caution for sensitive skin
- Tocopherol
- Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light
- Citronellol
- Citronellol for fragrance; EU 26 allergen, labeling required above 0.001%.
- Malic Acid
- AHA for pH buffering; mild at low conc, risk at high, control pH & total acidity
