Ingredients explained
- Water
- Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
- Dipropylene Glycol
- Solvent for essential oils; better humectancy than PEG
- Butylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Alcohol
- Ethanol for solubility/drying at 5-15%; high conc. is drying/irritating, avoid lip/eye, low residue, balance with humectants.
- Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil
- Jojoba oil rich in unsaturated fats; good penetration, non-comedogenic, prone to oxidation requiring antioxidants
- Oryza Sativa Bran Extract
- Rice bran extract rich in vitamins; moisturizing and soothing, generally well-tolerated.
- Rice Ferment Filtrate
- Contains amino acids/sugars; improves feel and hydration; fermentation byproducts may cause allergy.
- Tocopherol
- Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light
- Limnanthes Alba Seed Oil
- Lightweight natural oil with mineral oil-like feel; oxidizes easily, add antioxidants and control dose.
- Ubiquinone
- Coenzyme Q10 analog used as an antioxidant; prone to discoloration, needs protection from light and air.
- Hydrolyzed Rice Extract
- Hydrolyzed rice peptides for moisturizing; gentle for sensitive skin
- Hydrolyzed Rice Bran Extract
- Rich in amino acids/GABA; moisturizes and repairs; extraction affects activity retention
- Disodium EDTA
- Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy
- PEG-20 Hydrogenated Castor Oil
- Not decoded yet
- Xanthan Gum
- Natural thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, pH-stable, requires full hydration
- Di-C12-15 Pareth-8 Phosphate
- Mild emulsifier and cleansing surfactant; used in creams or washes.
- Cetearyl Alcohol
- Fatty alcohol emulsifier at 1-5%; non-ionic surfactant
- Sorbeth-30 Tetraoleate
- Non-ionic polyol ester emulsifier; gentle, used in O/W systems to improve emulsion stability of oils
- Polysorbate 80
- Non-ionic emulsifier and solubilizer; watch for interaction with parabens
- Mineral Oil
- Occlusive emollient preventing water loss; must use high-purity medical grade to avoid impurities.
- Disodium Phosphate
- Phosphate buffer for pH adjustment and preservation; water-soluble; high levels may irritate mucous membranes.
- Sodium Phosphate
- Phosphate buffer and anti-seborrheic; pH regulator, aids sebum control, high levels are irritating
- Ethylparaben
- Paraben preservative; EU restricted, watch total load and sensitive skin reactions
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Methylparaben
- Preservative, narrow spectrum; often combined, check allergen risk and regulatory limits.
