Pos Ingredient Name Description
1 citrus aurantium dulcis (orange) fruit water
2 aqua/water Plain old water
3 ascorbyl glucoside A vitamin C derivative that is more stable but less potent than pure form of vitamin C. Has a potential to boost collagen production, nutralise free radicals and reduce hyperpigmentation, but the required concentration is likely to be much higher than for the pure form of vitamin C, limiting the ingredient's effectiveness in products
4 salvia hispanica seed extract A plant extract that typically contains linolenic and linoleic acids that help soften the upper layer of the skin and can support skin barrier function
5 pentylene glycol Used to preserve products, dissolve other ingredients and create a nice product texture
6 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
7 sodium hydroxide Used to adjust the product's pH
8 parfum/fragrance An aromatic blend of unspecified irritating ingredients
9 sodium benzoate A preservative
10 sodium hyaluronate One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Attracts water into the upper layer of the skin
11 levulinic acid Helps stabilize a product formulation
12 chondrus crispus Red algae extract that helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and create a nicer product consistency
13 carrageenan Helps thicken the product formula and create a nice product formulation
14 sodium gluconate Helps stabilize product formulations
15 xanthan gum Used to create a thicker product consistency
16 citric acid Can work as an exfoliant but is typically used to adjust the product pH
17 sodium levulinate A preservative
18 lactobacillus ferment A fermentation product created by bacteria Lactobacillus. The fermented product has anti-bacterial properties and might be helpful in calming down inflammation, but studies are lacking. Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin. Can be used as a preservative
19 linalool A fragrance. Can be irritating
20 [n4402/a]. The ingredient is not recognized
