Ingredients explained

Water

Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth

Butylene Glycol

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

Caprylyl Methicone

Volatile silicone, fresh feel, does not absorb oil, used in foundations and cushions.

Cyclopentasiloxane

Cyclopentasiloxane for emollient/solvent; volatile silicone, smooth feel, check VOC regulations.

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

Light occlusive and solvent at 1–10%; non-greasy feel, suitable for oily and combination skin

Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice

Natural humectant and soother with high water activity; requires preservative system, generally well-tolerated

Cetearyl Alcohol

Fatty alcohol emulsifier at 1-5%; non-ionic surfactant

Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltaurate/VP Copolymer

Cationic polymer providing suspension, thickening, and conditioning; often paired with anionic thickening systems, low usage, imparts slip.

Glyceryl Stearate

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

PEG-100 Stearate

Non-ionic emulsifier, requires ionics for stability; check PEG for formaldehyde.

Epilobium Angustifolium Flower/Leaf/Stem Extract

Botanical extract used as a skin conditioning agent

Hinokitiol

Natural antistatic and hair conditioner; low irritancy, comedogenicity data not publicly available

Spiraea Ulmaria Extract

Astringent/tonic plant extract for skin care; batch-to-batch variability, concentration control recommended

Boswellia Serrata Extract

Anti-inflammatory and soothing extract, 0.1–0.5%; contains boswellic acids, check compatibility with fragrances

Honey Extract

Humectant and skin conditioning agent; hygroscopic, sensitive to pH.

Oryza Sativa Bran Extract

Rice bran extract rich in vitamins; moisturizing and soothing, generally well-tolerated.

Resveratrol

Potent polyphenol antioxidant <1%; light-sensitive, needs antioxidants/chelators

Tripeptide-1

Sea whip

Not decoded yet

Allantoin

Skin soother at 0.5-2%; promotes cell regeneration

Tocopheryl Acetate

Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light

Tocopherol

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

Polysilicone-11

Not decoded yet

Benzyl Alcohol

Mild preservative/solvent at 0.5-1.0%; EU allergen (labeling required), irritation risk if concentrated, avoid in infant/highly sensitive skin.

Xanthan Gum

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

Dextran

Polysaccharide for binding; water-soluble requires preservation.

Steareth-2

Not decoded yet

Synthetic wax

Waxy solidifier for hardness and gloss; complex mixture, not a single molecule.

Adipic Acid/Diglycol Crosspolymer

Hydroxyethyl Behenamidopropyl Dimonium Chloride

Diamonium surfactant; superior conditioning for damaged hair, milder than mono

Disodium EDTA

Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy

Sodium Benzoate

Preservative booster, effective below pH 4.5; combinable with sorbates

Sodium Hydroxide

Strong base neutralizer for pH adjustment; handle with extreme care

Citric Acid

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

Ethylhexylglycerin

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

Phenoxyethanol

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