13 peg-20 stearate
14 stearyl alcohol An emollient that helps soften the skin
15 glycine soja protein / 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.

However, in many cosmetic formulations, it is used in a concentration that is too low to have the full effect
