Ingredients explained
- Avene Thermal Spring Water
- Avene Thermal Spring Water; contains trace minerals and silica; used as a solvent or aqueous base with soothing properties.
- Water
- Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
- Sodium Laureth Sulfate
- Common anionic surfactant, strong foam but drying; check cationic compatibility, high eye irritation
- Disodium Laureth Sulfosuccinate
- Mild anionic surfactant, boosts foam/cleaning; low irritancy, common in wash formulations
- Disodium Cocoamphodiacetate
- Amphoteric surfactant for cleansing and foam boosting; milder than sulfates, low comedogenic risk.
- Sodium Chloride
- Salt for gel viscosity control; used as precipitant in soaps
- Lauryl Betaine
- Mild amphoteric surfactant; foaming and stabilizing. Eye irritation may exceed anionics, use low levels for sensitive skin.
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate
- PEG-modified nonionic surfactant for emulsification and cleansing; contains PEG, monitor dioxane, low comedogenicity.
- Citric Acid
- Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH
- Cocamide MIPA
- Cocamide MIPA; mild surfactant for foam boosting and viscosity; potential sensitizer at high concentrations
- Disodium EDTA
- Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Sodium Benzoate
- Preservative booster, effective below pH 4.5; combinable with sorbates
