Ingredients explained

Water/Eau

Water as base solvent; no irritation, but requires preservatives to prevent microbial growth.

Glycerin

Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives

Dipropylene Glycol

Solvent for essential oils; better humectancy than PEG

Ethylhexyl Palmitate

Synthetic ester emollient with light skin feel; small molecule, slightly comedogenic, use cautiously for acne-prone skin, often blended with other oils.

Butyrospermum Parkii Butter

Shea butter for occlusive moisturizing; high melt point, rich texture, caution for oily skin.

Isopropyl Myristate

Light synthetic ester, fast-drying and non-greasy; high comedogenic risk, limit in acne-prone skin

Pentylene Glycol

Polyol humectant at 1-3%; low irritancy, suitable for sensitive skin

Dimethicone

Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin

PPG-24-Glycereth-24

Not decoded yet

Polyquaternium-51

Not decoded yet

Glycerylamidoethyl Methacrylate/Stearyl Methacrylate Copolymer

Not decoded yet

Sodium Acetylated Hyaluronate

Acetylated HA; modified for hydrophobicity, improved penetration and non-tacky feel compared to standard HA.

Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid

Low-MW humectant with superior penetration vs high-MW; 0.1-0.5% typical, hygroscopic, store dry to prevent clumping.

Sodium Hyaluronate

Potent humectant at 0.1–2%; different MW for penetration depth, high levels may draw moisture

Soluble Collagen

Water-soluble collagen for hydration, film-forming, hair care; MW affects permeation/film

Hydrolyzed Collagen

Hydrolyzed protein for film-forming and moisture; molecular weight limits penetration, check source for shellfish allergies

Camellia Japonica Seed Extract

Camellia seed extract containing oleic acid and saponins; mild antioxidant and conditioning agent

Arnica Montana Flower Extract

Arnica extract; plant soothing/perfume alternative; low conc, potential sensitizer, patch test advised

Pueraria Lobata Root Extract

Kudzu root extract as humectant; contains isoflavones, limit dose due to endocrine activity.

Morus Alba Root Extract

Mulberry root extract with resveratrol-like compounds; whitening and conditioning; plant-based, control concentration to avoid irritation.

Paeonia Albiflora Root Extract

Peony root extract for moisture and conditioning; plant-derived, low allergenicity

Rosa Centifolia Flower Extract

Rosa centifolia flower extract, astringent and conditioning; limit concentration, cautious for sensitive skin

Citrus Junos Fruit Extract

Yuzu peel extract; provides antioxidants, low concentration reduces photosensitivity risk.

Coix Lacryma-Jobi Ma-Yuen Seed Extract

Job's tear seed extract; traditionally used for skin conditioning and reducing roughness, containing sterols and polysaccharides.

Artemisia Princeps Leaf Extract

Artemisia Princeps leaf extract containing volatile components; potential irritant risk, limit usage and patch test for sensitive skin.

Citrus Limon Juice Extract

Lemon juice extract, AHAs/Vit C for brightening; photosensitizing, limit daytime use, pair with SPF

Olea Europaea Fruit Oil

Olive oil, rich in squalene and oleic acid; moderate comedogenicity, caution for oily skin.

Hydrogenated Starch Hydrolysate

Humectant for hydration and film formation; 1-5%, monitor microbial contamination

Glycosyl Trehalose

Glycosylated trehalose to enhance skin tolerance and moisture retention; acts as a film former.

Butylene Glycol

Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel

Betaine

Betaine for mild moisturizing/surfactant; low concentration 1-2% common, high may irritate.

Ethylhexylglycerin

Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel

PEG-75 Stearate

PEG-75 stearate, non-ionic emulsifier/thickener; PEG-based, check for 1,4-dioxane limits, not used in some markets.

Glyceryl Stearate

Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification

Behenyl Alcohol

Fat alcohol emulsifier/thickener at 1-3%; low comedogenic risk, check solubility in strong acid/base systems, add antioxidants.

Polysorbate 80

Non-ionic emulsifier and solubilizer; watch for interaction with parabens

Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer

Crosspolymer for thickening/film; needs neutralization to pH 7-8 to hydrate, check ion strength.

Xanthan Gum

Natural thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, pH-stable, requires full hydration

Tocopherol

Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light

Tetrasodium EDTA

Chelator removing metal ions to enhance antioxidant and preservative efficacy; very low usage, typically 0.05-0.1%, no direct skincare function.

Potassium Hydroxide

Strong alkali pH adjuster, trace usage (<0.1%); corrosive, must be neutralized.

Citric Acid

Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH

Sodium Citrate

Sodium citrate for buffering and chelating; adjust pH, careful with strong acid reactions.

Phenoxyethanol

Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin

Pelargonium Graveolens Flower Oil

Aromatic essential oil; contains allergens (citronellol, limonene), requires labeling.
