1 | water | Plain old water |
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 | 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 |
4 | acetyl glucosamine | An effective moisturizing ingredient that also has been shown to be effective in evening out the skin tone and reducing hyperpigmentation. It can help somewhat reduce wrinkles in skin |
5 | propylene glycol | Helps oil and water mix together and can enhance the penetration of other ingredients into the skin |
6 | dimethiconol | A silicone that makes products more spreadable and keeps skin smooth. Helps to add gloss to skin and may visually fill in fine lines/wrinkles for short time |
7 | phenoxyethanol | A preservative. It helps prevent bacterial growth in cosmetic products |
8 | carbomer | Helps create a gel-like product texture. Can be used in gentle cleansing formulations |
9 | tetrahydrodiferuloylmethane | An anti-oxidant derived from curcumin (naturally present in tumeric). Is a part of the tetrahydrocurcuminoids complex (THC). The complex might be helpful in neutralizing free radicals in skin and possibly help even out the skin tone. Can be irritating |
10 | hexylresorcinol | Might be helpful in reducing hyperpigmentation and neutralizing free radicals in skin |
11 | disodium edta | Stabilizes the product formulation |
12 | sodium hydroxide | Used to adjust the product's pH |
13 | dimethicone/vinyl dimethicone crosspolymer | Used to stabilize product formulations and create a nice product texture |
14 | pentylene glycol | Used to preserve products, dissolve other ingredients and create a nice product texture |
15 | fragrance | An aromatic blend of unspecified irritating ingredients |
16 | amodimethicone | Helps create a silky product texture |
17 | ethylhexylglycerin | A preservative |
18 | silica | Used to absorb oil and can temporarily mattify skin |
19 | mica | Creates an illusion of smoother and more radiant skin tone. Adds shimmer to the skin by reflecting light |
20 | 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 |
