Ingredients explained
- Water
- Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Butylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel
- Cyclopentasiloxane
- Cyclopentasiloxane for emollient/solvent; volatile silicone, smooth feel, check VOC regulations.
- Niacinamide
- Niacinamide at 2–5%; improves texture, controls oil, brightens; high levels may cause sensitivity
- Hydrogenated Poly
- Hydrogenated poly C6-14 olefins, saturated oil; occlusive, low permeability
- Silica
- Silica powder at 1–10%; absorbs oil, thickens, provides matte finish, for oil-control products
- Pentylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant at 1-3%; low irritancy, suitable for sensitive skin
- Panthenol
- Panthenol (vitamin B5) at 1–5%; moisturizing and reparative, supports barrier recovery
- Glycosyl Trehalose
- Glycosylated trehalose to enhance skin tolerance and moisture retention; acts as a film former.
- Dimethicone
- Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin
- Carbomer
- Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility
- Triethanolamine
- Triethanolamine for buffering; restricted, limit concentration to avoid high pH and irritation
- Hydrogenated Starch Hydrolysate
- Humectant for hydration and film formation; 1-5%, monitor microbial contamination
- Dimethicone/Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer
- Crosslinked silicone thickener at 0.5-2%; silky/matte feel, non-comedogenic, partial oil phase incompatibility, use co-solvent/pre-emulsification.
- PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil
- Non-ionic emulsifier and solubilizer at 1–5%; contains PEG, check acid compatibility and sensitive skin irritation
- Hydrogenated Lecithin
- Emulsifier from lecithin; stable, used in powder emulsions
- Caprylyl Glycol
- Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol
- Fragrance
- Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components
- Disodium EDTA
- Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy
- Water
- Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
- Anastatica Hierochuntica Extract
- Anastatica hierochuntica extract; traditional botanical, astringent and skin conditioning, limited data.
- Sea Water
- Natural ingredient with salts; acts as solvent or humectant, high salt content may feel gritty
- Pseudoalteromonas Ferment Extract
- Microbial ferment for humectancy and skin conditioning; gentle.
- Myrothamnus Flabellifolia Callus Culture Extract

- 1,2-Hexanediol
- Polyol solvent and preservative booster at 1–5%; light feel, can replace some traditional preservatives
- Lactobacillus Ferment
- Probiotic ferment filtrate for conditioning; complex mix, check allergens and preservative residues
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Imperata Cylindrica Root Extract
- Imperata root extract; traditional TCM ingredient for skin conditioning. No public data on irritancy or comedogenicity.
- Opuntia Ficus-Indica Stem Extract
- Prickly pear extract; traditional humectant/soother; no published irritant/comedogenic data
- Adansonia Digitata Seed Extract
- Baobab seed extract with polysaccharides/proteins; skin conditioner, enhances moisture barrier.
- Adenium Obesum Leaf Extract
