Pos Ingredient Name Description
1 ingredients: The ingredient is not recognized
2 water\aqua\eau Plain old water
3 caprylic/capric/myristic/stearic triglyceride Helps to soften the upper layer of the skin
4 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
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 hexyldecyl stearate Helps create a nice product feeling on the skin and help soften its upper layer
7 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
8 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
9 glycereth-26 Helps create a thicker product consistency
10 glyceryl stearate An emollient that softens the skin and forms a protective layer on its surface. Helps water and oil mix together
11 peg-100 stearate Helps oil and water mix togehter and creates a nice product texture
12 cetearyl alcohol A non-drying alcohol. Works as an emollient. Helps water and oil mix together and creates a nice product texture
13 tamarindus indica seed extract
14 centaurium erythraea (centaury) extract A plant extract that can help calm down inflammation in skin
15 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
16 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
17 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
18 hydrolyzed soy protein Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin. Might have some anti-aging, anti-oxidant, and skin lightening properties, but solid evidence is missing
19 yeast extract Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and might have some anti-oxidant and skin lightening properties. It can help calm down inflammation in skin
20 faex Yeast extract. Helps to attract water to the upper layer of the skin
21 extrait de levure Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and might have some anti-oxidant and skin lightening properties. It can help calm down inflammation in skin
22 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
23 saccharomyces ferment filtrate A product of yeast fermentation. Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin
24 sigesbeckia orientalis (st. paul's wort) extract A plant extract that can contain an anti-inflammatory compound
25 caffeine Might be helpful in neutralizing free radicals. Can have a dehydration effect that might somewhat decrease the look of puffy eyes
26 biotin Might have some moisturising properties. Is not effective when applied topically beyond some moisturizing effect
27 ergothioneine Can help neutralize free radicals in skin. Preliminary studies show that it can be more effective than coenzyme Q10 but studies on effective concentration for topical applications are lacking
28 acetyl hexapeptide-8 A type of peptide. Peptides are excellent moisturizers and might be able support collagen production reducing fine lines and wrinkles
29 soy amino acids Help attract water to the upper layer of the skin
30 aminopropyl ascorbyl phosphate A more stable but less potent derivative of vitamin C. It can help neautralize free radicals and even out the skin tone if used in high enough concentration (required levels are likely to be much higher than for pure vitamin C, and solid studies are lacking at the moment)
31 astrocaryum murumuru seed butter Helps soften the upper layer of the skin. Could be comedogenic due to the myrisic acid content
32 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.
33 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
