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 |
34 | cetearyl glucoside | Helps water and oil in the product mix well together and improves product texture |
35 | isohexadecane | Improves the texture of the product and helps soften the skin. Helps oil and water mix together and can be used as a cleansing agent |
36 | caprylyl glycol | Helps preserve products and creates a nice product texture |
37 | acrylates/c10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer | Maintains the texture of skincare products. Allows the product to spread evenly. Helps oil and water mix together |
38 | 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 |
39 | sodium hyaluronate | One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Attracts water into the upper layer of the skin |
40 | myristyl alcohol | Helps to stabilize the product formulation while softening the upper layer of the skin. Can be irritating |
41 | tromethamine | Helps adjust pH in products |
42 | polysorbate 80 | Helps water and oil mix together |
43 | acrylamide/sodium acryloyldimethyltaurate copolymer | Helps water and oil mix together and create gel-like textures |
44 | hexylene glycol | Helps create a more spreadable product texture |
45 | lecithin | Used mostly for creating emulsions - helping oil and water mix together. Helps soften the upper layer of the skin |
46 | sodium benzoate | A preservative |
47 | hydroxyethylcellulose | Used to thicken product formulations and create gel-like textures |
48 | disodium edta | Stabilizes the product formulation |
