Pos Ingredient Name Description
1 isohexadecane Improves the texture of the product and helps soften the skin. Helps oil and water mix together and can be used as a cleansing agent
2 dicaprylyl carbonate Helps products spread more easily and works as an emollient to soften skin
3 pentaerythrityl tetraethylhexanoate Used to create a nice product consistency while softening the upper layer of the skin
4 ppg-15 stearyl ether Help soften the upper layer of the skin and create a nice product consistency
5 triethyl citrate
6 polysorbate 20 Helps oil and water mix together
7 retinol Two steps removed from the active form of vitamin A - retinoic acid. Once converted to the retinoic acid in the skin, retinol is proven to be effective against all signs of aging. It improves skin cell turnover, helps fight blemishes and clogged pores, can regulate excess oil production and even skin tone. It can, however, be quite irritating
8 fragrance An aromatic blend of unspecified irritating ingredients
9 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.
10 bisabolol An active component of chamomile plant that historically has been used to calm down irritated skin. A recent study shows that bisabolol indeed can have some anti-inflammatory effect on skin, even though conclusive data is lacking. Bisabolol has a sweet floral scent and can be added to products for its aromatic properties
