Pos Ingredient Name Description
1 water Plain old water
2 petrolatum One of the most effective and the most studied occlusive ingredients that creates a protective layer on top of the skin preventing moisture loss
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 butyrospermum parkii (shea butter) A great moisturising ingredient that softens the skin and reduces water loss from its upper layer. It also can be helpful in protecting skin from free radicals
5 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
6 ceresin
7 phenyl trimethicone A type of silicone that can decrease loss of moisture from the skin surface. It helps create a nice product texture
8 acetyl glucosamine An effective moisturizing ingredient that also has been shown to be effective in evening out the skin tone and reducing hyperpigmentation. It can help somewhat reduce wrinkles in skin
9 pentylene glycol Used to preserve products, dissolve other ingredients and create a nice product texture
10 lauryl peg-9 polydimethylsiloxyethyl dimethicone A type of silicone that helps to soften upper layer of the skin and create a nice product texture
11 lanolin alcohol Helps oil and water mix together. Can be irritating
12 camellia sinensis (green tea) leaf extract Can contain potent anti-oxidant compounds and help protect the skin from free radicals. Can help calm down inflammation and has some anti-bacterial properties
13 olea europaea (olive) fruit extract An emollient that helps soften the skin but is not effective for restoring its barrier function. Might be helpful to calm down inflammation
14 triticum vulgare (wheat bran) extract
15 scutellaria baicalensis root extract A plant extract that might contain a compound baicalin that could be helpful in neutralizing free radicals and reducing inflammation in skin. The baicalin concentration in skincare products is often too low for an effective action. Can be used for its fragrant properties
16 ascophyllum nodosum extract Brown seaweed extract. Can help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and might have some antioxidant effect
17 asparagopsis armata extract Red seaweed extract. Can help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and might have some antioxidant effect
18 pyrus malus (apple) fruit extract Can have some moisturizing properties due to its sugar content
19 morus bombycis (mulberry) root extract A plant extract that might contain arbutin, a compound that has skin-lightening properties. Might have some anti-oxidant activity. Is unlikely to be effective though in the concentrations typically used in skincare products
20 salvia sclarea (clary) extract Used as a fragrance. Can be irritating
21 oenothera biennis (evening primrose) oil Helps soften the upper layer of the skin and can support skin barrier function
22 limnanthes alba (meadowfoam) seed oil This oil's cmposition is closest to rapeseed oil. It is a very stable oil and serves as an emoillient.
23 vitis vinifera (grape) seed oil A great emollient that can have some anti-oxidant properties
24 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.
25 caffeine Might be helpful in neutralizing free radicals. Can have a dehydration effect that might somewhat decrease the look of puffy eyes
26 sucrose Can help attract water to the upper layer of the skin. In crystal form, it can work as a gentle exfoliant, gentler than the salt scrub. Helps stabilize the emulsion
27 silica Used to absorb oil and can temporarily mattify skin
28 cholesterol An emollient that is naturally found in skin
29 sorbitol Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improves the product texture
30 di-c12-15 alkyl fumarate Used to soften the upper layer of the skin and create a nice product texture
31 peg-30 dipolyhydroxystearate
32 behenyl alcohol Non-drying alcohol that helps water and oil mix together. Also serves as an emollient
33 hydroxystearic acid
34 micrococcus lysate Consists of remains of dead bacteria cells. Is likely helpful in attracting water to the upper layer of the skin. Might be helpful in reducing inflammation and neutralizing free radicals in skin
35 peg-8 distearate
36 acetyl hexapeptide-8 A type of peptide. Peptides are excellent moisturizers and might be able support collagen production reducing fine lines and wrinkles
37 trehalose A sugar that attracts water to the upper layer of the skin
38 linoleic acid An excellent emollient. Helps soften the skin, restore its barrier function, and can help to calm down inflammation. It can be helpful to prevent blemishes and clogged pores
39 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
40 sodium hyaluronate One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Attracts water into the upper layer of the skin
41 lecithin Used mostly for creating emulsions - helping oil and water mix together. Helps soften the upper layer of the skin
42 potassium stearate
43 potassium palmitate
44 fragrance An aromatic blend of unspecified irritating ingredients
45 sodium chloride Used to stabilize mixtures of oil and water, and create thicker, gel-like product textures
46 trisodium edta Helps preserve product formulations
47 limonene A common frangrance that can easily irritate skin, especially if exposed to air, light or heat
48 benzyl salicylate A fragrance. Is a likely irritant
49 chlorphenesin A preservative
50 phenoxyethanol A preservative. It helps prevent bacterial growth in cosmetic products
