Pos Ingredient Name Description
1 water (aqua Plain old water
2 sodium laureth sulfate
3 cocamidopropyl betaine Helps water and oil mix together. Used as a cleansing ingredient. Could be an allergen
4 fragrance (parfum An aromatic blend of unspecified irritating ingredients
5 sodium chloride Used to stabilize mixtures of oil and water, and create thicker, gel-like product textures
6 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
7 aminomethyl propanol Used to adjust the pH in formulations
8 ascorbic acid One of the few well researched potent anti-aging ingredients. When it is able to penetrate the skin in an active state, it is effective against fine lines and wrinkles, helps improve skin elasticity and reduce hyperpigmentation. It acts as a powerful anti-oxidant and stimulates collagen production. The main issue with ascorbic acid is that it is highly unstable, in other words, it is losing its effectivenss quickly when exposed to air and light (if a serum or cream containing ascorbic acid has an orange color, it is a likely that the ingredient has oxidized and is no longer active). In addition, it is water-soluble, meaning that it has difficulty pentrating the skin. It is also quite irritating, and can cause stinging. When used in low concentrations, helps stabilize the product formulation
9 benzophenone-4 Sulisobenzone. A UV filter. Is typically used to improve the product stability under exposure to UV light. It is effective against both UVA and UVB rays. It can be used is larger concentrations as a sun protection ingredient for the skin, but can be irritating
10 bht A preservative
11 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
12 c11-15 pareth-7
13 citric acid Can work as an exfoliant but is typically used to adjust the product pH
14 disodium edta Stabilizes the product formulation
15 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
16 peg-120 methyl glucose dioleate
17 peg-40 hydrogenated castor oil Helps oil and water mix together
18 polyquaternium-10 Helps soften the upper layer of the skin and create a nice product finish
19 , propoxytetramethyl piperidinyl The ingredient is not recognized
20 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
21 punica granatum (pomegranate) extract A plant extract that can help neutralize free radicals in skin and even out the skin tone, but is typically used in products in a concentration that is too low to be effective
22 retinyl palmitate Three steps removed from the active form of vitamin A - retinoic acid. To have an effect in the skin, it first needs to be converted twice to become the retinoic acid. This means it is less potent than retinol, but could also be less irritating. Once converted to the retinoic acid in the skin, it helps against all signs of aging, improves skin cell turnover and helps fight blemishes and clogged pores. However, in many cosmetic formulations, it is used in a concentration that is too low to have the full effect
23 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.
24 trideceth-6 Helps oil and water mix together
25 vitis vinifera (grape) seed extract A plant extract that contains resveratrol and other anti-oxidant compounds that can help neutralize free radicals, reduce inflammation in skin and even out its tone. Can be also used to stabilize the product formulation
26 methylchloroisothiazolinone
27 methylisothiazolinone A preservative. Is a frequent allergen
28 yellow 6 (ci 15985 A colorant
