WIMJ FORMULA ANALYSIS

Works for moisturization. Has good ingredients to attract water to the skin and then "seal it in", keeping skin hydrated over time

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
persea gratissima oil	HIGH
triticum vulgare germ oil	HIGH
sesamum indicum seed oil	HIGH

Pos	Ingredient Name	Description
1	water (aqua	Plain old water
2	aloe barbadensis leaf juice	Traditionally used to treat sunburns, dermatitis and inflammation, but evidence for its effectiveness is lacking. The extract can contain humectants that help attract water into the skin
3	sesamum indicum (sesame) seed oil	A good moisturizing plant oil. Due to the high linoleic acid content, it helps soften the upper layer of the skin, reduce water loss and support skin barrier function
4	cetearyl alcohol	A non-drying alcohol. Works as an emollient. Helps water and oil mix together and creates a nice product texture
5	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
6	cetyl alcohol	A non-drying alcohol that works to soften the skin and stabilize product formulations helping oil and water mix together
7	ceteareth-20	Helps oil and water mix together. Has some emollient properties
8	rosa canina fruit oil	A great emollient. Contains vitamin E (tocopherol) which may give it some anti-oxidant properties. Can contain volatile compounds and can be irritating

10	butyrospermum parkii (shea butter)	A great moisturising ingredient that softens the skin and reduces water loss from its upper layer. It also can be helpful in protecting skin from free radicals
11	simmondsia chinensis (jojoba) seed oil	Softens the upper layer of skin and helps restore the healthy skin barrier. Has shown to help calm down inflammation in skin. It is a stable oil, meaning that it retains its properties even when exposed to air.
12	persea gratissima (avocado) oil	An emollient that helps soften the skin and could be helpful in repairing its barrier function
13	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).
