- Vitis Vinifera Seed Oil
- Grapeseed oil, lightweight emollient and antioxidant; high linoleic acid, suitable for oily and combination skin.
- Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate
- Vitamin C ester antioxidant; more stable than ascorbic acid but still light-sensitive.
- Squalane
- Emollient from plants or synthetic; light texture
- Polyglyceryl-6 Stearate
- Gentle emulsifier suitable for sensitive skin; oil-soluble, often paired with others; non-comedogenic
- Pentylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant at 1-3%; low irritancy, suitable for sensitive skin
- Tocopherol
- Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light
- Phloretin
- Not decoded yet
- Ubiquinone
- Coenzyme Q10 analog used as an antioxidant; prone to discoloration, needs protection from light and air.
- Linolenic Acid
- Omega-6 fatty acid for barrier repair; prone to oxidation, needs antioxidants and low light exposure
- Oleic Acid
- Oleic acid for emolliency/emulsification; high levels may increase skin penetration
- Linoleic Acid
- Essential fatty acid for barrier repair and hydration; oxidizes easily, high levels may be comedogenic
- Palmitic Acid
- Palmitic acid for emulsification/emollient; solid fat, high melting point, occlusive.
- Stearic Acid
- Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel
- Resveratrol
- Potent polyphenol antioxidant <1%; light-sensitive, needs antioxidants/chelators
- Borago Officinalis Seed Oil
- Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) rich oil; excellent for repair but prone to oxidation, requires antioxidants
- Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil
- Sunflower seed oil for emollient/occlusive; high linoleic acid, low comedogenicity.
- Ferulic Acid
- Antioxidant, often combined with vitamin C and E; 0.5-2%, photolabile
- Polyglyceryl-6 Behenate
- Non-ionic emulsifier for stabilizing O/W systems; gentle.
- Glyceryl Stearate
- Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification
- Propanediol
- Polyol solvent at 1–5%; light feel, aids solubilization, propylene glycol alternative
- Lactic Acid
- AHA pH adjuster at 0.5-5%; exfoliation/humectancy, mild at low conc., irritating at high, avoid conflict with alkaline preservatives.
- Xanthan Gum
- Natural thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, pH-stable, requires full hydration
- Hydroxyacetophenone
- Hydroxyacetophenone as antioxidant; often boosts Vitamin C, works in acidic pH.
