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

Xanthan Gum

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

Citric acid

Regulates pH, enhances flavor, acts as preservative

Sodium Chloride

Increases viscosity, improves product stability, non-toxic, widely available and biodegradable

Ceramide NP

Supports skin barrier function, may improve skin hydration

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

Pentylene Glycol

Humectant, solvent, enhances skin hydration and product texture

Aqua

Widely used as a non-toxic solvent and carrier

Cocamidopropyl Betaine

Mild surfactant, good foaming and cleansing properties, reduces irritation of harsher surfactants

Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate

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

Glycerin

Moisture retention, solvent properties, texture improvement

Salicylic Acid

Antimicrobial properties, keratolytic/exfoliating action, may contribute to stain removal and biofilm disruption

Sodium Benzoate

Effective antimicrobial preservative, extends shelf life of products

Gluconolactone

Gentle exfoliation, hydration support, antioxidant properties

Niacinamide

Supports skin barrier integrity, improves skin appearance, essential nutrient

Sodium Lauroyl Lactylate

Mild surfactant, good emulsifying properties, biodegradable, generally safe for dermal use

Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer

Insufficient safety data for oral consumption, possible allergenic reactions, unknown effects with chronic ingestion

Sodium Hydroxide

Effective pH control and acidity regulation in food processing, aids in peeling and curing processes

Phenoxyethanol

Effective broad-spectrum preservative, low volatility, less sensitizing than isothiazolinones

Cholesterol

Essential structural component of cell membranes, precursor for steroid hormones and bile acids

Ceramide AP

Skin barrier repair, moisture retention, supports skin hydration

Ethylhexylglycerin

Enhances preservative efficacy, deodorizing properties

Carbomer

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

Ceramide EOP

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

Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate

Biodegradable chelating agent, improves cleaning efficacy, reduces water hardness effects, enhances preservative performance
