Pos Ingredient Name Description
1 caprylic/capric triglyceride A good mix of fatty acids that forms a protective layer on the skin. Improves the shelf life of products. Derived from coconut and glycerin
2 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
3 aqua/water/eau Plain old water
4 sucrose stearate Helps water and oil mix together
5 di-c12-13 alkyl malate
6 sucrose laurate Helps oil and water mix together. Can be used as a cleansing agent
7 helianthus annuus (sunflower) seed oil A great emollient due to its high linoleic acid content. One of the most effective plant oils in helping skin hydration and repairing skin barrier function
8 crithmum maritimum extract
9 bacillus ferment
10 ulva lactuca extract
11 propylene glycol Helps oil and water mix together and can enhance the penetration of other ingredients into the skin
12 sodium benzoate A preservative
13 lactic acid An exfoliating and moisturizing alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA). Typically causes less irritation than other AHAs, for example, glycolic acid. At high concentrations (about 15%), lactic acid can help reduce lines and wrinkles. Recent studies show that lactic acid can support the "good" bacteria living on skin's surface (healthy skin microbiom)
14 potassium sorbate A preservative
15 citric acid Can work as an exfoliant but is typically used to adjust the product pH
16 tocopherol Pure form of vitamin E. Can help moisturise and protect the skin from free radicals. Often used to help stabilise other ingredients or the formula itself
