Pos Ingredient Name Description
1 water/aqua/eau Plain old water
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 dimethicone A silicone that helps to reduce water loss from the surface of the skin. Can temporarily "fill in" lines and wrinkles, absorb oil, and create a nice product finish
4 butylene glycol Used to create a nice product texture and help delivery of other ingredients. Might be somewhat helpful in attracting water to the upper layer of the skin
5 diphenylsiloxy phenyl trimethicone
6 microcrystalline cellulose
7 peg-9 polydimethylsiloxyethyl dimethicone A type of silicone that helps water and oil mix together
8 polymethylsilsesquioxane A silicone that improves product texture and helps dissolve other ingredients. Can form a non-greasy film on the skin to prevent moisture loss
9 chamomilla recutita (matricaria) flower extract Plant extract that can have healing and anti-inflammatory properties. It is a potential allergen and can be irritating
10 chlorella vulgaris extract A plant extract that can help to attract water to the upper layer of the skin and might have some anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties
11 centella asiatica extract A plant extract that has been shown to be able to reduce inflammation in skin, support restoration of skin barrier function, as well as support collagen production. Contains active compounds called centelloids: asiaticoside, madecasosside, asiatic acid and madecassic acid. Might be helpful in preventing stretch marks. It can be itself be irritating though.
12 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
13 saccharide isomerate Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin
14 caprylyl glycol Helps preserve products and creates a nice product texture
15 dimethicone/phenyl vinyl dimethicone crosspolymer
16 dimethicone/peg-10/15 crosspolymer Helps oil and water mix together
17 dipropylene glycol Helps to dissolve other ingredients in a formulation. Slows down the rate of product drying
18 disodium edta Stabilizes the product formulation
19 cellulose gum Used to create thicker product consistency and stabilize emulsions
20 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)
21 propanediol Acts as a solvent for other ingredients. Speeds up the absorption of other ingredients into the skin
22 chlorphenesin A preservative
23 phenoxyethanol A preservative. It helps prevent bacterial growth in cosmetic products
24 sodium citrate Helps to control the skin's pH level. Maintains the skin's natural film of amino-lactic acids and oils. Helps to preserve products
25 sodium chloride Used to stabilize mixtures of oil and water, and create thicker, gel-like product textures
