Pos Ingredient Name Description
1 aqua/water/eau Plain old water
2 diisopropyl sebacate Helps soften the upper layer of the skin without creatng a greasy finish
3 propylene glycol dicaprylate/dicaprate
4 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
5 zinc oxide A broad spectrum sunblock (protects from both UVA and UVB rays). Is suitable for most sensitive skins. In small concentrations, can be used as a colorant
6 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
7 octyl methoxycinnamate Octinoxate. When used in higher concentrations, works as a sunscreen protecting the skin from UVB rays. When used in lower concentration, helps to preserve the product formulation. Is shown to be harmful to coral reefs - consider avoiding bathing in coral reef areas when wearing a product with this ingredient. It can be irritating
8 cyclopentasiloxane A silicone that helps improve the product texture and spreadability. Can absord oil creating a short-term mattifying effect on the skin
9 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
10 glyceryl stearate An emollient that softens the skin and forms a protective layer on its surface. Helps water and oil mix together
11 titanium dioxide Works as a UV filter when used in high concentrations. It is photostable and is effective mostly against the UVB light, with some protection in the UVA range. In small concentrations, used for its ability to improve the color of cosmetic products. Is usually well tolerated by the skin
12 benzophenone-3 Same as oxybenzone. Protects in the UVB and short UVA range. In small concentrations, used to stabilize product formulation. Can be irritating. Is shown to be harmful to coral reefs - consider avoiding bathing in coral reef areas when wearing a product with this ingredient. It can penetrate the skin and get absorbed into bloodstream faster than other popular filters available in the US. The study that produced this finding did not address any potential health effects of the absorption
13 dipropylene glycol Helps to dissolve other ingredients in a formulation. Slows down the rate of product drying
14 cetearyl alcohol A non-drying alcohol. Works as an emollient. Helps water and oil mix together and creates a nice product texture
15 peg-100 stearate Helps oil and water mix togehter and creates a nice product texture
16 stearyl dimethicone Helps soften the upper layer of the skin
17 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.
18 creatine Can support skin's ability to neutralize free radicals and produce collagen, though further research is needed to confirm effectiveness
19 glycyrrhetinic acid Active compound of licorice root. Works to calm down inflammation, as an anti-oxidant, and might be helpful in lightening the skin and reducing hyperpigmentation
20 mannitol Helps to attract water to the upper layer of the skin
21 methylpropanediol Helps dissolve other ingredients in a formulation
22 trilinolein
23 acetyl tyrosine
24 aspartic acid An amino-acid that helps increase skin hydration and might help to slightly improve skin firmness, potentially reducing lines and wrinkles
25 sodium dextran sulfate
26 arachis hypogaea (peanut) oil
27 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
28 oleoyl tyrosine
29 hydrolyzed wheat protein Can help attract water to the upper layer of the skin. Avoid if sensitive to gluten
30 trilinolenin
31 triolein Helps soften the upper layer of the skin
32 triticum vulgare (wheat) germ oil A good emoillient. Contains vitamin E which can help neutralise free radicals, however the oil is unstable. Avoid if you have gluten or wheat sensitivity (including food allergies).
33 oleic acid Helps soften the upper layer of the skin. At the same time, it can weaken the skin's barrier enhancing penetration of other ingredients and increasing the risk of skin dryness
34 tripalmitin
35 medicago sativa (alfalfa) oil unsaponifiables
36 tristearin
37 juglans regia (walnut) shell extract
38 hypericum perforatum extract
39 copper gluconate Typically used to stabilize the product formulations. It is a salt of polyhydroxy acid (PHA) and in larger concentrations, can help shed the dead cells from the skin surface revealing smoother skin. It can help attract water to the upper layer of the skin. Might to be helpful against acne and clogged pores. Could be helpful in neutralizing free radicals, but solid research is missing
40 asiaticoside An active compound of Centella Asiatica plant extract. In combination with other active compounds of Centella Asiatica extract (madecasosside, asiatic acid and madecassic acid), asiaticoside has been shown to be helpful in wound-healing, restoring skin barrier function and supporting collagen production in skin. It can, however, itself be irritating
41 artemia extract Zooplankton extract that can attract water to the upper level of the skin and might have some anti-oxidant effect
42 carnosine A type of peptide. It attracts water to the upper layer of the skin. It can help neutralize free radicals in skin combatting the sun damage
43 asiatic acid An active compound of Centella Asiatica plant extract. In combination with other active compounds of Centella Asiatica extract (asiaticoside, madecasosside and madecassic acid) asiatic acid has been shown to be helpful in wound-healing, restoring skin barrier function and supporting collagen production in skin. It can, however, itself be irritating
44 madecassic acid An active compound of Centella Asiatica plant extract. In combination with other active compounds of Centella Asiatica extract (asiaticoside, madecasosside and asiatic acid), madecassic acid has been shown to be helpful in wound-healing, restoring skin barrier function and supporting collagen production in skin. It can, however, itself be irritating
45 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
46 disodium adenosine triphosphate
47 dextran Helps attract water to the most upper layer of the skin. Derived from sugar
48 palmitoyl pentapeptide-4 A type of peptide. Peptides are excellent moisturizers and might be able support collagen production reducing fine lines and wrinkles
49 acetyl hexapeptide-1
50 cyclohexasiloxane A silicone that serves as an emollient. Helps create a nice non-greasy feels
51 peg-30 dipolyhydroxystearate
52 isopropyl myristate An emollient that helps soften the skin. Could be comedogenic
53 aluminum hydroxide Is used to add opaque (non-transparent) appearance to formulations. Can be used to coat other ingredients for even dispersion. This is a different ingredient compared to the ones used in antipersperants (aluminium chloride and aluminium chlorohydrate)
