Ingredients explained
- Aqua
- Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Sodium C14-16 Olefin Sulfonate
- Sulfate surfactant at 1–5%; strong cleansing, may cause dryness/irritation
- Cocamidopropyl Betaine
- Cocamidopropyl betaine; zwitterionic co-surfactant reducing irritation and boosting foam, common in mild cleansers.
- Cocamidopropylamine Oxide
- Cationic/Amphoteric surfactant, foaming/conditioning; allergenic at high levels, blends with anions.
- Acrylates Copolymer
- Acrylate synthetic polymer for film forming and antistatic; breathable film, control dosage carefully
- Di-PPG-2 Myreth-10 Adipate
- Emollient and mild cleanser; provides a slippery, soft feel to the formulation.
- Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate
- Water-soluble Vitamin C derivative for antioxidant and brightening; more stable than ascorbic acid
- Ascorbyl Methylsilanol Pectinate
- Silicon-based Vitamin C derivative for antioxidant activity and viscosity control; superior stability compared to traditional Vitamin C, suitable for formulation.
- Bromelain
- Bromelain protease at 0.1–1% for gentle exfoliation; protein hydrolase, avoid long-term co-use with strong acids
- Panthenol
- Panthenol (vitamin B5) at 1–5%; moisturizing and reparative, supports barrier recovery
- Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract
- Green tea extract for antioxidant/astringent; contains caffeine, possible irritation in sensitive skin.
- Chamomilla Recutita Flower Extract
- Plant extract, soothing properties; contains natural allergens, high levels may irritate.
- Acer Saccharum Extract
- Maple extract; NMF/AA source; gentle humectant, no public irritant/comedogenic data
- Vaccinium Myrtillus Fruit/Leaf Extract
- Bilberry extract with polyphenols for astringency and soothing.
- Saccharum Officinarum Extract
- Sugarcane extract, mainly moisturizing and conditioning; use at low levels; prone to microbes, needs preservatives.
- Citrus Aurantium Dulcis Flower Oil
- Essential oil for fragrance and astringency; contains allergens like linalool, limited by III/350
- Citrus Aurantium Amara Peel Oil
- Essential oil, scent regulator; III/351 allergen, labeling required.
- Citrus Aurantium Dulcis Fruit Extract
- Citrus peel extract, provides fragrance and astringency; photosensitive due to furanocoumarins; caution in daytime or remove photoactives.
- Citrus Limon Fruit Extract
- Lemon fruit extract for fragrance and occlusive moisturizing; contains furanocoumarins, photosensitivity caution advised.
- Disodium EDTA
- Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy
- Sodium Hydroxide
- Strong base neutralizer for pH adjustment; handle with extreme care
- Maltodextrin
- High-MW multifunctional excipient for thickening, binding, and emulsion stability; inert, non-penetrating conditioning.
- Methylpropanediol
- Diol solvent and extraction carrier; enhances solubility of actives, low irritation profile.
- Citric Acid
- Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH
- Sodium Chloride
- Salt for gel viscosity control; used as precipitant in soaps
- Sodium Sulfate
- Inorganic salt for viscosity; high concentrations cause osmotic dehydration.
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Limonene
- Natural fragrance solvent, EU allergen; poor photostability
- Potassium Sorbate
- Preservative effective below pH 6; combinable with sodium benzoate
- Sodium Benzoate
- Preservative booster, effective below pH 4.5; combinable with sorbates
