Pos Ingredient Name Description
1 water (aqua Plain old water
2 sorbitol Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improves the product texture
3 cetearyl alcohol A non-drying alcohol. Works as an emollient. Helps water and oil mix together and creates a nice product texture
4 , pinus haeda(pine bark)extract, The ingredient is not recognized
5 saccharum officinarium(sugar cane) extract Sugar extract that helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin
6 acer saccharum(sugar maple) extract A plant extract that contains small percentage of AHAs. Is unlikely to have any skin benefit due the small concentration of the active compounds
7 citrus aurantium dulcis(orange fruit) extract A plant extract that is used as a fragrance. Can be irritating and lead to photosensitivity
8 citrus medicalimonum(lemon) fruit extract Used as a fragrance. Can be irritating and cause photosensitivity
9 vaccinium myrtillus fruit/leaf extract
10 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
11 vitamin c 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a serum or cream containing ascorbic acid has an orange color, it is a likely that the ingredient has oxidized and is no longer active).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
12 phenoxyethanol A preservative. It helps prevent bacterial growth in cosmetic products
13 caprylyl glycol Helps preserve products and creates a nice product texture
14 sorbic acid A preservative
15 steapyrium chloride
