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
BALANITES ROXBURGHII SEED OIL
An emollient. Could be irritating
BATYL ALCOHOL
Non-drying alcohol. Used to stabilize other ingredients and is an emollient
CAMELLIA SINENSIS LEAF EXTRACT
Can contain potent anti-oxidant compounds (abbreviated ECG, GCG, EGC, and EGCG) that might help protect the skin from free radicals. Can help calm down inflammation and has some anti-bacterial properties. Unfortunately, these antioxidants are unstable and lose their effectiveness very quickly in products. The concentration of the antioxidant compounds in the extract also tends to be low to be effective in topical formulation
ALCOHOL
Can be drying and contribute to skin irritation. Used in formulars to dissolve other ingredients, create a thinner product consistency or for its antibacterial properties
