Ingredients explained
- Aqua
- Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical
- Glycine Soja Oil
- Soybean oil emollient; prone to oxidation, needs antioxidants; suitable for dry skin
- Butyrospermum Parkii Butter
- Shea butter for occlusive moisturizing; high melt point, rich texture, caution for oily skin.
- C10-18 Triglycerides
- Mixture of C10-18 triglycerides for emolliency, conditioning, and solvency; low comedogenic risk but occlusive.
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- 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.
- Candelilla/Jojoba/Rice Bran Polyglyceryl-3 Esters
- Polyglyceryl-3 esters from candelilla/jojoba/rice bran; emulsifier, stabilizer, cleanser. Bio-derived, low irritant.
- Glyceryl Stearate
- Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification
- Papaver Rhoeas Flower Extract
- Not decoded yet
- Cetearyl Alcohol
- Fatty alcohol emulsifier at 1-5%; non-ionic surfactant
- Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate
- Mild emulsifier/stabilizer for O/W; control usage to prevent viscosity issues
- Prunus Cerasus Flower Extract
- Not decoded yet
- Xanthan Gum
- Natural thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, pH-stable, requires full hydration
- Rosa Rubiginosa Seed Oil
- Rose hip seed oil; rich in oleic acid, emollient, potentially comedogenic
- Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil
- Jojoba oil rich in unsaturated fats; good penetration, non-comedogenic, prone to oxidation requiring antioxidants
- Sodium Benzoate
- Preservative booster, effective below pH 4.5; combinable with sorbates
- Betaine
- Betaine for mild moisturizing/surfactant; low concentration 1-2% common, high may irritate.
- Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil
- Sunflower seed oil for emollient/occlusive; high linoleic acid, low comedogenicity.
- Tocopherol
- Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light
- Potassium Sorbate
- Preservative effective below pH 6; combinable with sodium benzoate
- Potassium Cetyl Phosphate
- Cetyl phosphate potassium, O/W emulsifier; pH-sensitive, often requires buffering.
- Citric Acid
- Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH
