What's inside

PEG-150 Pentaerythrityl Tetrastearate

May contain impurities such as 1,4-dioxane (a possible carcinogen), ultra-processed, limited data on oral safety, potential for gut microbiome disruption, possible skin irritation in topical use

PEG-6 Caprylic/Capric Glycerides

Synthetic origin, potential contamination with 1,4-dioxane or ethylene oxide residues, possible gastrointestinal irritation, ultra-processed, unknown long-term ingestion effects

Methylparaben

Potential endocrine disruption, possible estrogenic effects, allergenic reactions in sensitive individuals, bioaccumulation concern

Propylparaben

Potential endocrine disruption, possible hormone mimicry, linked to reproductive toxicity in animal models

Propylene Glycol

Mild skin irritation possible at high concentrations, rare sensitization

Disodium EDTA

Potential mild skin irritation, environmental persistence, limited oral bioavailability

Xanthan Gum

Minor gastrointestinal intolerance in high amounts, possible allergen for sensitive individuals

Citric acid

Preservative properties, pH regulation, enhances flavor

Glycerin

Moisture retention, texture improvement

Ceramide NP

Supports skin barrier function, may improve skin hydration

Sodium Chloride

Cost-effective viscosity modifier, non-toxic, non-irritating, readily available

Cholesterol

Essential for cell membrane integrity, precursor for steroid hormones and bile acids

Tetrasodium EDTA

Enhances stability of formulations by chelating metal ions, prevents discoloration and rancidity

Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid

Enhances skin hydration due to improved penetration, supports skin moisture retention

Phytosphingosine

Supports skin barrier function, antimicrobial against Cutibacterium acnes and Staphylococcus aureus, anti-inflammatory signaling (NF-kB/MAPK modulation), may aid acne-prone or compromised skin

Aqua

Widely used as a non-toxic solvent and carrier

Cocamidopropyl Hydroxysultaine

Mild surfactant, good foaming, conditioning to skin, biodegradable

Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate

Mild surfactant, good foaming properties, biodegradable, less irritating than traditional sulfates

Niacinamide

Supports skin barrier integrity, improves skin appearance, essential nutrient

Sodium Methyl Cocoyl Taurate

Mild cleansing agent, gentle on skin compared to harsher surfactants, good foaming properties

Ceramide AP

Skin barrier repair, moisture retention, supports skin hydration

Ceramide EOP

Improves skin barrier function, reduces transepidermal water loss, increases skin hydration, supports management of atopic dermatitis/xerosis

Carbomer

Effective thickening and stabilizing agent, improves texture and shelf stability of formulations

Sodium Lauroyl Lactylate
