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

Alcohol Denat

Denatured ethanol; solvent, penetration enhancer, and quick-dry agent; high % may compromise barrier in dry skin.

Dipropylene glycol

Solvent for essential oils; better humectancy than PEG

1,2-Hexanediol

Polyol solvent and preservative booster at 1–5%; light feel, can replace some traditional preservatives

Betaine

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

Panthenol

Panthenol (vitamin B5) at 1–5%; moisturizing and reparative, supports barrier recovery

PEG/PPG/polybutylene glycol-8/5/3 glycerin

PEG/PPG polybutylene glycerin humectant; monitor PEG oxidation and stability.

Avena Sativa Kernel Extract

Antioxidant and soothing extract; mild abrasive properties, common in conditioning formulas

Stellaria media

Not decoded yet

Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract

Calendula extract for soothing and repair; aqueous systems, monitor extract residues.

Nepeta Cataria Extract

Not decoded yet

Rubus Idaeus Leaf Extract

Raspberry leaf extract rich in polyphenols; acts as plant-based skin conditioner; generally low irritancy.

Baptisia Tinctoria Root Extract

Not decoded yet

Alchemilla Vulgaris Leaf Extract

Not decoded yet

Equisetum Arvense Leaf Extract

Plant extract containing silicon and minerals; used for skin conditioning and antioxidant effects at low levels

Urtica dioica

Not decoded yet

Adansonia Digitata Seed Extract

Baobab seed extract with polysaccharides/proteins; skin conditioner, enhances moisture barrier.

Lonicera Caprifolium Flower Extract

Honeysuckle extract for soothing and antioxidants; trace use, low allergenic risk

Vitis Vinifera Vine Sap

Not decoded yet

Sodium Hyaluronate

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

Acrylates/C10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer

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

Hydroxypropyl Cyclodextrin

Cyclodextrin to complex fragrances/actives; boosts solubility and stability.

PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil

Non-ionic emulsifier and solubilizer at 1–5%; contains PEG, check acid compatibility and sensitive skin irritation

Bis-PEG-18 Methyl Ether Dimethyl Silane

Silicone modifier for smoothness; contains PEG, used for foam and cleansing, manage PEG residuals

Trisodium EDTA

Metal chelator improving formula stability and synergizing preservatives; used at very low levels (<0.1%), control heavy metals.

Beta-Glucan

Polysaccharide for soothing and hydration; high MW acts on the surface, poor penetration into deep dermis.

Glyceryl acrylate/acrylic acid copolymer

Acrylate copolymer for thickening and moisturizing; synthetic polymer with low sensitization risk.

Glycereth-26

Glycereth-26, humectant/viscosity modifier at 1–5%; non-ionic water-soluble, boosts stability and feel.

Phenyl Trimethicone

Aromatic modified silicone for high gloss and occlusion; inert, non-volatile, may leave surface residue

Tromethamine

pH adjuster, alkaline; precise dosing required

PEG/PPG-17/6 copolymer

Non-ionic copolymer used as a solvent and emulsifier aid; PEG component may increase penetration

Polyglutamic Acid

Natural-derived polypeptide for hydration and skin conditioning; often used for long-lasting moisture

Methylpropanediol

Diol solvent and extraction carrier; enhances solubility of actives, low irritation profile.

Malachite Extract

Botanical antioxidant extract; specific activity varies by extraction process.

Butylene Glycol

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

Citrus Aurantium Dulcis Peel Oil

Sweet orange peel essential oil, citrus aroma; photosensitive, be careful in daytime; irritating at high levels.

Citrus Aurantifolia Oil

Bitter orange essential oil; fragrance and conditioning. Phototoxic; use in AM formulas requires sun protection. EU restricted.

Rosmarinus Officinalis Leaf Oil

Rosemary leaf oil for fragrance and conditioning; essential oil, allergen risk, limit usage

Pelargonium Graveolens Flower Oil

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

Citral

Citral; citrus fragrance component, listed EU allergen, high phototoxicity risk, strict concentration limits apply.

Citronellol

Citronellol for fragrance; EU 26 allergen, labeling required above 0.001%.

Limonene

Natural fragrance solvent, EU allergen; poor photostability

Geraniol

Geraniol for fragrance; EU 26 allergen, labeling required above 0.001%.

Linalool

Natural fragrance component at ≤0.05%; one of EU 26 allergens, caution for sensitive skin
