Pos Ingredient Name Description
1 water\aqua\eau Plain old water
2 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a serum or cream containing ascorbic acid has an orange color, it is a likely that the ingredient has oxidized and is no longer active).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
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 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
5 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.
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 dipropylene glycol Helps to dissolve other ingredients in a formulation. Slows down the rate of product drying
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 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
10 hordeum vulgare (barley) extract\extrait d'orge A plant extract that might have some anti-oxidant properties. Avoid if you are sensitive to gluten
11 morus nigra (mulberry) root extract A plant extract that might help neutralize free radicals in skin and have some skin-lightening effect, but good evidence is missing
12 molasses extract\saccharum officinarum\extrait de mlasse Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin. Might have a weak skin-lightening effect, but solid research is missing
13 laminaria digitata extract Seaweed extract that helps the skin to attract water and make it more smooth for touch. Also shows promise of anti-aging properties, but good research is lacking at the moment
14 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
15 acetyl hexapeptide-8 A type of peptide. Peptides are excellent moisturizers and might be able support collagen production reducing fine lines and wrinkles
16 vitis vinifera (grape) fruit extract A plant extract that helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin. It might be helpful in neutralizing free radicals in skin, but is less potent than the extract from the seeds
17 algae extract Plant extract that helps the skin to attract water and make it more smooth for touch. Also shows promise of anti-aging properties, but research is not extensive yet
18 palmitoyl hexapeptide-12 A type of peptide. Peptides are excellent moisturizers and might be able support collagen production reducing fine lines and wrinkles
19 palmitoyl tripeptide-1 A type of peptide. Peptides are excellent moisturizers and might be able support collagen production reducing fine lines and wrinkles
20 palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 A type of peptide. Peptides are excellent moisturizers and might be able support collagen production reducing fine lines and wrinkles
21 alcaligenes polysaccharides
22 caffeine Might be helpful in neutralizing free radicals. Can have a dehydration effect that might somewhat decrease the look of puffy eyes
23 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
24 whey protein\lactis protein\protine du petit-lait A protein derived from milk. In skincare products, might help to soften the upper layer of the skin
25 betaine Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improves the product texture
26 salicylic acid Used for skin exfoliation. It has an anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial effect, helps to unclog pores, prevent blemishes and speed up healing of the existing ones. Sometimes referred to as a BHA (beta-hydroxy acid)
27 glycine soja (soybean) protein A plant extract that helps to attract water to the upper layer of the skin and soften it. It might be helpful in neutralizing free radicals. It might be somewhat helpful for evening out the skin tone. It might be able to support elastin production but solid research is lacking
28 sodium hyaluronate One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Attracts water into the upper layer of the skin
29 caprylyl glycol Helps preserve products and creates a nice product texture
30 sigesbeckia orientalis (st. paul's wort) extract A plant extract that can contain an anti-inflammatory compound
31 bis-peg-18 methyl ether dimethyl silane A type of silicone that helps soften the upper layer of the skin and create a nice product texture
32 propylene glycol dicaprate An emollient that helps soften the upper layer of the skin
33 helianthus annuus (sunflower) seedcake Used to thicken the product consistency
34 allyl methacrylates crosspolymer Used to stabilize product formulations
35 carbomer Helps create a gel-like product texture. Can be used in gentle cleansing formulations
36 glyceryl polymethacrylate Used to create a nice product texture
37 tromethamine Helps adjust pH in products
38 xanthan gum Used to create a thicker product consistency
39 potassium sorbate A preservative
40 peg-8 Used to create a nice product consistency
41 polysorbate 20 Helps oil and water mix together
42 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
43 disodium edta Stabilizes the product formulation
44 phenoxyethanol A preservative. It helps prevent bacterial growth in cosmetic products
