Pos Ingredient Name Description
1 rosa damascena flower water Used to add a nice rose smell to the product. Can be irritating
2 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
3 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
4 aqua /water/eau Plain old water
5 c12-20 acid peg-8 ester Helps oil and water mix together
6 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
7 imperata cylindrica root extract
8 ptfe Used to create a nice product finish
9 phenoxyethanol A preservative. It helps prevent bacterial growth in cosmetic products
10 potassium cetyl phosphate Helps oil and water mix together
11 carbomer Helps create a gel-like product texture. Can be used in gentle cleansing formulations
12 mica Creates an illusion of smoother and more radiant skin tone. Adds shimmer to the skin by reflecting light
13 ci 77891 (titanium dioxide Works as a UV filter when used in high concentrations. It is photostable and is effective mostly against the UVB light, with some protection in the UVA range. In small concentrations, used for its ability to improve the color of cosmetic products. Is usually well tolerated by the skin
14 ethylhexylglycerin A preservative
15 hydroxyethyl acrylate/sodium acryloydimethyl taurate copolymer A gelling agent that thickens the product consistency and leaves the skin with a velvety finish
16 tilia cordata flower extract
17 hydrolyzed fibroin
18 sodium hydroxide Used to adjust the product's pH
19 dunaliella salina extract A green micro-algae extract that might help neutralize free radicals in skin, but solid evidence is lacking. It helps to soften the upper layer of the skin
20 squalane An oil naturally present in skin. Works as an emollient to soften the skin and form a protective layer on its surface without a greasy feeling.
21 disodium edta Stabilizes the product formulation
22 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.
23 maltodextrin Used to stabilize the product formulation and can help absorb oil
24 silica Used to absorb oil and can temporarily mattify skin
25 aloe barbadensis leaf juice 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
26 ascorbyl tetraisopalmitate
27 polysorbate 60 Helps oil and water mix together
28 biosaccharide gum-1 Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and is claimed to provide a longer-lasting hydration because of its ability to create a water-binding film on the surface of the skin
29 glyceryl acrylate/acrylic acid copolymer Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and provide a longer-lasting hydration. Can create a thicker product consistency
30 sodium hyaluronate One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Attracts water into the upper layer of the skin
31 sodium lactate Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin. Is often used to adjust the pH level of the product
32 cocoglucoside Used as a cleansing agent (surfactant) in cleansers. Helps water and oil mix together in lotions. Can be irritating
33 rosa damascena flower oil Contains essential oil. Can be irritating
34 retinyl palmitate Three steps removed from the active form of vitamin A - retinoic acid. To have an effect in the skin, it first needs to be converted twice to become the retinoic acid. This means it is less potent than retinol, but could also be less irritating. Once converted to the retinoic acid in the skin, it helps against all signs of aging, improves skin cell turnover and helps fight blemishes and clogged pores. However, in many cosmetic formulations, it is used in a concentration that is too low to have the full effect
35 peg-8 Used to create a nice product consistency
36 acacia decurrens flower wax Used as a fragrance. Can be irritating
37 jasminum grandiflorum (jasmine) flower wax
38 narcissus poeticus flower wax
39 pelargonium graveolens oil
40 caprylyl glycol Helps preserve products and creates a nice product texture
41 palmitoyl dipeptide-5 diaminobutyroyl hydroxythreonine
42 palmitoyl dipeptide-5 diaminohydroxybutyrate
43 ubiquinone Coenzyme Q10. It helps neutralize free radicals in skin, improves skin hydration and might be helpful agains fine lines and wrinkles. It can be an allergen
44 malus domestica fruit cell culture extract
45 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
46 sodium benzoate A preservative
47 sorbitan isostearate Helps oil and water mix together
48 camellia sinensis 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
49 potassium sorbate A preservative
50 palmitoyl tripeptide-1 A type of peptide. Peptides are excellent moisturizers and might be able support collagen production reducing fine lines and wrinkles
51 palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 A type of peptide. Peptides are excellent moisturizers and might be able support collagen production reducing fine lines and wrinkles
52 acrylates/ c10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer Maintains the texture of skincare products. Allows the product to spread evenly. Helps oil and water mix together
53 cucumis sativus (cucumber) fruit extract Might be somewhat helpful in reducing hyperpigmentation and neutralizing free radicals but its typical concentration in a product is too low for having an effect
54 litchi chinensis pericarp extract
55 ascorbyl palmitate Being a lipid soluble form of vitamin C, it is more stable and can penetrate the skin better than L-Ascorbic acid. It is effective in protecting the skin from free radicals, as well as evening the skin tone, but is less effective in stimulating collagen production compared to L-Ascorbic acid.
56 benzyl alcohol A preservative. Can be used to mask unpleasant smell. Can be irritating
57 xanthan gum Used to create a thicker product consistency
58 ascorbic acid One of the few well researched potent anti-aging ingredients. When it is able to penetrate the skin in an active state, it is effective against fine lines and wrinkles, helps improve skin elasticity and reduce hyperpigmentation. It acts as a powerful anti-oxidant and stimulates collagen production. The main issue with ascorbic acid is that it is highly unstable, in other words, it is losing its effectivenss quickly when exposed to air and light (if a serum or cream containing ascorbic acid has an orange color, it is a likely that the ingredient has oxidized and is no longer active). In addition, it is water-soluble, meaning that it has difficulty pentrating the skin. It is also quite irritating, and can cause stinging. When used in low concentrations, helps stabilize the product formulation
59 citric acid Can work as an exfoliant but is typically used to adjust the product pH
60 ci 77480
61 gold A colorant. Does not have any proven benefits in skin
62 lecithin Used mostly for creating emulsions - helping oil and water mix together. Helps soften the upper layer of the skin
63 dehydroacetic acid A preservative
64 citronellol A fragrance. Can be irritating
65 geraniol A fragrance. Can be irritating
