Pos Ingredient Name Description
1 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
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a serum or cream containing ascorbic acid has an orange color, it is a likely that the ingredient has oxidized and is no longer active).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 polysilicone-11 A silicone that forms a light film on the skin surface helping to bind water and temporarily absorb oils creating a matt and powdery feel
4 ethylhexyl palmitate An emollient that helps soften the skin and create a nice product texture
5 peg-10 dimethicone A silicone that works to soften the upper layer of the skin and reduce its water loss
6 silica silylate Helps create a thicker product consistency
7 silica dimethyl silylate Used to create a thicker product consistency
8 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
9 caprylyl glycol Helps preserve products and creates a nice product texture
10 phenoxyethanol A preservative. It helps prevent bacterial growth in cosmetic products
11 sodium hyaluronate One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Attracts water into the upper layer of the skin
12 hexylene glycol Helps create a more spreadable product texture
