Pos Ingredient Name Description
1 aqua (water Plain old water
2 ethylhexyl palmitate An emollient that helps soften the skin and create a nice product texture
3 aloe barbadensis (aloe) leaf extract Traditionally used to treat sunburns, dermatitis and inflammation, but evidence for its effectiveness is lacking. The extract can contain humectants that help attract water into the skin
4 sorbitan stearate Helps water and oil mix together
5 glyceryl stearate An emollient that softens the skin and forms a protective layer on its surface. Helps water and oil mix together
6 c12-15 alkyl benzoate Enhances the product texture and makes it more spreadable. Helps reduce water loss from the outer layer of skin. Extands the shelf life by preventing bacteria growth
7 cetyl alcohol A non-drying alcohol that works to soften the skin and stabilize product formulations helping oil and water mix together
8 lauryl glucoside Helps oil and water mix together
9 phenoxyethanol A preservative. It helps prevent bacterial growth in cosmetic products
10 caprylyl glycol Helps preserve products and creates a nice product texture
11 tocopheryl acetate A more stable but less bio-available form of vitamin E compared to Tocopherol. Might help moisturize and protect the skin from free radicals, but mostly used in low concentrations to stabilize other ingredients.
12 citric acid Can work as an exfoliant but is typically used to adjust the product pH
13 glycerin One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Naturally present in skin. It attracts water to the upper layer of the skin working as a humectant
