Ingredients explained
- Aqua
- Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical
- Cyclopentasiloxane
- Cyclopentasiloxane for emollient/solvent; volatile silicone, smooth feel, check VOC regulations.
- Cyclohexasiloxane
- Volatile cyclic silicone evaporating without residue; ensure compliance with EU limits on cyclic polydimethylsiloxanes, use octamer
- Ceramide 3
- Ceramide 3 to restore skin barrier and moisturize; used at 0.01–1%, often blended
- Ceramide 6 II
- Ceramide for barrier repair and lipid layer restoration; high stability, suitable for sensitive/compromised skin, low irritancy/comedogenicity.
- Ceramide 1
- Not decoded yet
- Phytosphingosine
- Phytosphingosine barrier repair ingredient, 0.1–1%; water-soluble, good for dry skin.
- Cholesterol
- Cholesterol; barrier repair lipid mimicking stratum corneum; often blended with ceramides, plant or fermentation source.
- Sodium Lauroyl Lactylate
- Mild emulsifier at 1–5%; suitable for sensitive skin, mind cationic surfactant compatibility
- Lactococcus Ferment Lysate
- Lactococcus lysate; provides amino acids and polysaccharides for moisture, fermentation reduces allergens.
- Cetearyl Alcohol
- Fatty alcohol emulsifier at 1-5%; non-ionic surfactant
- Behentrimonium Methosulfate
- Cationic surfactant for conditioning and antistatic; be careful with anionic actives compatibility.
- Cetyl Alcohol
- Cetyl alcohol for emulsification/thickening; high concentration >10% may irritate.
- Butylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel
- Sodium Lactate
- Sodium lactate for moisturizing and exfoliation; pH buffering agent
- Panthenol
- Panthenol (vitamin B5) at 1–5%; moisturizing and reparative, supports barrier recovery
- Allantoin
- Skin soother at 0.5-2%; promotes cell regeneration
- Urea
- Potent humectant and keratolytic, >10% has exfoliating effect; stinging sensation at high levels, sensitive skin caution
- Hyaluronic Acid
- High-water-binding humectant at 0.1-1%; high-MW for surface film, low-MW for dermal potential, check cationic compatibility.
- Salvia Officinalis Oil
- Sage oil traditionally for tonic use; as essential oil, mind concentration and labeling.
- DMDM Hydantoin
- Formaldehyde-releasing preservative (V/33 limit); monitor cumulative formaldehyde with fragrances.
- Iodopropynyl Butylcarbamate
- Broad-spectrum preservative; mild irritation; caution for sensitized skin.
- Carbomer
- Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility
- Xanthan Gum
- Natural thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, pH-stable, requires full hydration
