Ingredients explained
- Water/Aqua/Eau
- Primary aqueous solvent and carrier; no specific incompatibilities, focus on microbial stability.
- Dipropylene Glycol
- Solvent for essential oils; better humectancy than PEG
- Butylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel
- 1,2-Hexanediol
- Polyol solvent and preservative booster at 1–5%; light feel, can replace some traditional preservatives
- Hydroxyacetophenone
- Hydroxyacetophenone as antioxidant; often boosts Vitamin C, works in acidic pH.
- Betaine Salicylate
- Salicylate derivative for keratolytic and antimicrobial action; milder than salicylic acid.
- Octyldodeceth-16
- Not decoded yet
- Hydroxyethyl Urea
- Potent humectant and conditioner; high penetration, used for skin hydration and hair care
- Tromethamine
- pH adjuster, alkaline; precise dosing required
- Betaine
- Betaine for mild moisturizing/surfactant; low concentration 1-2% common, high may irritate.
- Sodium Citrate
- Sodium citrate for buffering and chelating; adjust pH, careful with strong acid reactions.
- Citric Acid
- Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH
- Disodium EDTA
- Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy
- Melaleuca Alternifolia Leaf Oil
- Tea tree oil, antibacterial and sebum regulating; highly sensitizing at concentrate level, dilute; avoid on broken skin.
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Gluconolactone
- Multifunctional agent for chelation and permeation; acidic, may irritate at high levels, buffer recommended.
- Allantoin
- Skin soother at 0.5-2%; promotes cell regeneration
- Panthenol
- Panthenol (vitamin B5) at 1–5%; moisturizing and reparative, supports barrier recovery
- Pentylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant at 1-3%; low irritancy, suitable for sensitive skin
- Cryptomeria Japonica Leaf Extract
- Cryptomeria leaf extract, humectant & antioxidant; water-soluble, add at low temp to preserve.
- Nelumbo Nucifera Leaf Extract
- Herbal extract for soothing; limited data, patch test recommended, avoid metal ions.
- Saccharomyces Ferment Filtrate
- Yeast ferment filtrate; humectant and conditioner. May contain peptides, prone to browning, protect from light.
- Centella Asiatica Extract
- Centella asiatica extract for soothing/repair; low irritation, common in sensitive skin products.
- Gypsophila Paniculata Root Extract
- Not decoded yet
- Capryloyl Salicylic Acid
- Oil-soluble salicylic acid derivative for gentle pore unclogging; milder than BHA, suitable for daily acne care.
- Beta-Glucan
- Polysaccharide for soothing and hydration; high MW acts on the surface, poor penetration into deep dermis.
- Ethylhexylglycerin
- Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel
- Aspartic Acid
- Amino acid humectant and conditioner, common in rinse-off products; low levels mild, high levels may shift pH
- Acetyl Hexapeptide-8
- Acetyl hexapeptide-8; signal peptide, low concentration, used for firming and hydration, low irritancy.
