WIMJ FORMULA ANALYSIS

It can get the job done. Best in class ingredients detected

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
niacinamide	HIGH
sodium ascorbyl phosphate	LOW
ascorbyl palmitate	LOW

Pos	Ingredient Name	Description
1	aqua	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	glyceryl stearate se	Used to stabilize the product formulations and works as an emollient
4	cetearyl alcohol	A non-drying alcohol. Works as an emollient. Helps water and oil mix together and creates a nice product texture
5	caprylic/capric triglyceride	A good mix of fatty acids that forms a protective layer on the skin. Improves the shelf life of products. Derived from coconut and glycerin
6	cocos nucifera (coconut) oil	An emollient. Found to be as effective as a moisturizer for dry skin as mineral oil. Could be comedogenic
7	stearic acid	Helps oil and water mix together and works as an emollient
8	phenoxyethanol	A preservative. It helps prevent bacterial growth in cosmetic products
9	benzyl alcohol	A preservative. Can be used to mask unpleasant smell. Can be irritating
10	carbomer	Helps create a gel-like product texture. Can be used in gentle cleansing formulations
11	sodium hydroxide	Used to adjust the product's pH
12	niacinamide	Is proven to be effective in reducing blemishes, evening out skin tone and helping to improve lines and wrinkles. It helps the skin to repair sun damage, calm down inflammation and keep maintain good levels of moisture
13	panthenol	Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and can help improve skin barrier function
14	sodium ascorbyl phosphate	A stable derivative of vitamin C. It is oil-soluble which means it is more likely to penetrate the skin compared to the pure form of vitamin C (which is water-soluble), but it is less bio-available and is way less effective in stimulating collagen and reducing wrinkles compared to the pure form of vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) and its other derivatives (for example, magnesium ascorbyl phosphate). At the same time, this vitamin C derivative has been shown in studies to be effective in reducing acne, blemishes and clogged pores. It is less irritating then the pure form of vitamin C
15	sodium hyaluronate	One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Attracts water into the upper layer of the skin
16	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.
17	ethylhexylglycerin	A preservative
18	dehydroacetic acid	A preservative
19	lecithin	Used mostly for creating emulsions - helping oil and water mix together. Helps soften the upper layer of the skin
20	trisodium ethylenediamine disuccinate	Used to improve stability of the formulation
21	ascorbyl palmitate	Being a lipid soluble form of vitamin C, it is more stable and can penetrate the skin better than L-Ascorbic acid. It is effective in protecting the skin from free radicals, as well as evening the skin tone, but is less effective in stimulating collagen production compared to L-Ascorbic acid.
22	tocopherol	Pure form of vitamin E. Can help moisturise and protect the skin from free radicals. Often used to help stabilise other ingredients or the formula itself
23	helianthus annuus (sunflower) seed oil	A great emollient due to its high linoleic acid content. One of the most effective plant oils in helping skin hydration and repairing skin barrier function
