Ingredients by volume

Ingredient	Estimated concentration
water Plain old water	45% - 55%
sodium laureth sulfate Works as a foaming cleansing agent	11% - 14%
coco-betaine Helps oil and water mix together and works as a cleansing agent. Can be allergenic	5.9% - 7.2%
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	3.1% - 3.7%
peg-120 methyl glucose dioleate	2.2% - 2.7%
peg-7 glyceryl cocoate	1.9% - 2.3%
decyl glucoside Helps oil and water mix together. Can be irritating	1.7% - 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	1.4% - 1.7%
panthenol Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and can help improve skin barrier function	1.1% - 1.4%
sodium lauroyl oat amino acids	1% - 1.2%
butylene glycol Used to create a nice product texture and help delivery of other ingredients. Might be somewhat helpful in attracting water to the upper layer of the skin	0.65% - 1%
peg-60 almond glycerides	0.6% - 0.85%
chamomilla recutita flower extract Plant extract that can have healing and anti-inflammatory properties. It is a potential allergen and can be irritating	0.5% - 0.75%
hydrolyzed wheat protein Can help attract water to the upper layer of the skin. Avoid if sensitive to gluten	0.45% - 0.7%
lavandula angustifolia flower/leaf/stem extract Used as a fragrance	0.45% - 0.65%
salvia officinalis leaf extract	0.5% - 0.75%
hydrolyzed rice protein Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin. Might have some anti-oxidant properties	0.35% - 0.65%
magnesium gluconate A mineral that might be able to support skin hydration, but convincing research on its effectiveness in topical skincare is lacking	0.3% - 0.6%
zinc gluconate Typically used to stabilize the product formulations. It is a salt of a polyhydroxy acid (PHA) and in larger concentrations, can help shed the dead cells from the skin surface revealing smoother skin. It can help attract water to the upper layer of the skin. Might to be helpful against acne and clogged pores. Could be helpful in neutralizing free radicals, but solid research is missing. Due to the zinc content, might help calm down inflammation in skin	0.3% - 0.55%
phospholipids Emollients that are naturaly present in skin. In addition, they help water and oil mix together in the product	0.25% - 0.45%
unknown The ingredient is not recognized	TBC
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.	0.25% - 0.4%
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.	0.2% - 0.35%
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	0.15% - 0.3%
citric acid Can work as an exfoliant but is typically used to adjust the product pH	0.15% - 0.25%
disodium edta Stabilizes the product formulation	0.1% - 0.2%
phenoxyethanol A preservative. It helps prevent bacterial growth in cosmetic products	0.1% - 0.2%
methylparaben A preservative	0.1% - 0.15%
propylparaben A preservative	0.05% - 0.15%
