betaine	HIGH

Pos	Ingredient Name	Description
1	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
2	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
3	cetyl alcohol	A non-drying alcohol that works to soften the skin and stabilize product formulations helping oil and water mix together
4	cyclopentasiloxane	A silicone that helps improve the product texture and spreadability. Can absord oil creating a short-term mattifying effect on the skin
5	glyceryl stearate	An emollient that softens the skin and forms a protective layer on its surface. Helps water and oil mix together
6	sodium hyaluronate	One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Attracts water into the upper layer of the skin
7	cetyl ethylhexanoate	An emollient that helps soften the skin and creates a thicker product texture
8	stearic acid	Helps oil and water mix together and works as an emollient
9	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
10	simmondsia chinensis (jojoba) seed oil	Softens the upper layer of skin and helps restore the healthy skin barrier. Has shown to help calm down inflammation in skin. It is a stable oil, meaning that it retains its properties even when exposed to air.
11	beta-glucan	Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin, calm down inflammation and irritation, restore the barrier function and support wound healing. It can be helpful in reducing fine lines and wrinkles
12	sorbitan sesquioleate	Used to help oil and water mix together. Can be irritating
13	microcrystalline wax	Used to create a thicker product consistency
14	betaine	Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improves the product texture
15	peg-100 stearate	Helps oil and water mix togehter and creates a nice product texture
16	ceramide 3	A type of lipid similar to ceramides naturally present in skin. Helps to soften the upper layer of the skin and supports the skin barrier function to keep it hydrated. Can help to prevent inflammation in skin
17	polyquaternium-51	An emollient that helps create a nice silky finish on the skin
18	sorbitan stearate	Helps water and oil mix together
19	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
20	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.
21	carbomer	Helps create a gel-like product texture. Can be used in gentle cleansing formulations
22	arginine	An amino acid that is naturally present in skin and helps keep it hydrated. When used together with AHAs, it can reduce their irritating effect on the skin
23	illicium verum(anise) fruit extract
24	citrus paradisi(grapefruit) fruit extract
25	nelumbium speciosum flower extract
26	paeonia suffruticosa root extract
27	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
28	chlorphenesin	A preservative
29	disodium adenosine triphosphate
30	algin	Used to thicken product formulation. Can help attract water to the upper layer of the skin
31	carica papaya (papaya) fruit extract

34	natto gum
35	centella asiatica extract	A plant extract that has been shown to be able to reduce inflammation in skin, support restoration of skin barrier function, as well as support collagen production. Contains active compounds called centelloids: asiaticoside, madecasosside, asiatic acid and madecassic acid. Might be helpful in preventing stretch marks. It can be itself be irritating though.
36	althaea rosea flower extract
37	aloe barbadensis leaf extract	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
38	disodium edta	Stabilizes the product formulation
39	apium graveolens (celery) extract
40	brassica oleracea capitata (cabbage) leaf extract	Plant extract that might help calm down inflammation and have some anti-oxidant properties

42	brassica rapa (turnip) leaf extract
43	daucus carota sativa (carrot) root extract

45	solanum lycopersicum (tomato) fruit/leaf/stem extract
46	lysine hcl
47	proline
48	sodium ascorbyl phosphate	A stable derivative of vitamin C. It is oil-soluble which means it is more likely to penetrate the skin compared to the pure form of vitamin C (which is water-soluble), but it is less bio-available and is way less effective in stimulating collagen and reducing wrinkles compared to the pure form of vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) and its other derivatives (for example, magnesium ascorbyl phosphate). At the same time, this vitamin C derivative has been shown in studies to be effective in reducing acne, blemishes and clogged pores. It is less irritating then the pure form of vitamin C
