Further explanations of the ingredients:

Aqua:
Water. It makes up approximately 65% ​​of the weight of the human body and is therefore essential for bodily functions, including those of the skin. In many cosmetic products (aqueous solutions, cleansers, emulsions), water is the ingredient with the largest proportion of the formulation and forms the basis of the aqueous phase in emulsions. Water is a good solvent for polar (hydrophilic) substances such as alcohols, water-soluble vitamins, or salts. For use in cosmetic products, the water used is generally pre-treated to remove microorganisms that could lead to product spoilage or dissolved salts that might impair the stability of emulsions or gels (sterilization and desalination).

Oleyl Erucate:
Liquid wax ester, main component of jojoba oil, obtained from plant raw materials, provides intensive protection for the skin with replenishing and skin-smoothing properties.

Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil:
Macadamia nut oil: For the care of skin, hair and scalp, protects skin and hair from damage caused by sun exposure, protects against dryness of the skin and scalp, high content of palmitoleic acid, unsaturated fatty acids and vitamins.

Butylene Glycol:
Solvent with moisturizing properties for the skin, very well tolerated, should be preferred to propylene glycol in products used daily.

Urea:
Water-soluble urea is used in numerous cosmetic products. Urea is a component of the natural moisturizing factors in the stratum corneum (content between 7% and 12%; up to half that in chronically dry skin) and has a high water-binding capacity. It contributes to sustained skin hydration and reduces transepidermal water loss. Urea has a keratoplastic effect, and at higher concentrations, a keratolytic effect, and is therefore also used in the care of skin affected by psoriasis or atopic dermatitis (eczema). Furthermore, urea is able to reduce the irritating potential of surfactants.

C18-36 Acid Triglyceride:
High-melting wax made from natural raw materials, consistency enhancer

Polyglyceryl-2 Dipolyhydroxystearate:
W/O emulsifier, made from vegetable fats.

Tribehenin:
Plant triglyceride with a waxy structure, consistency enhancer in stick formulations, thickener in creams, excipient in pressed powders.

Sodium Lactate:
Sodium lactic acid: Has a moisturizing effect on the skin, with the physiological pH value of the skin of an average of 5.5. Important component of the skin's natural moisturizing factor (NMF) and acid mantle.

Panthenol:
D-Panthenol (Provitamin B5): Improves and increases the skin's moisture retention, has an anti-inflammatory effect, and soothes or inhibits itching. It stimulates epithelialization, allowing minor wounds (such as shaving), abrasions, and blisters to heal more quickly. It also promotes skin regeneration and combats cracked and brittle skin. When used in hair care products, it is not only deposited on the hair and scalp but also penetrates them, providing long-lasting effects. Since pantothenic acid is an important component of healthy hair, scientific studies have shown that its precursor, D-Panthenol, acts as "food for the hair." It provides long-lasting moisture, improves manageability, reduces split ends, improves the condition of damaged hair, thickens hair, and adds shine. It also reduces fingernail brittleness.

Diisostearoyl Polyglyceryl-3 Dimer Dilinoleate:
Emulsifier for W/O emulsions, derived from the renewable, plant-based raw materials glycerin and fatty acids, very good skin compatibility.

D-alpha-Tocopheryl Acetate:
Natural vitamin E acetate; storage form in the skin, converted into the active form by breaking the acetate bond; antioxidant with skin-protecting properties, e.g., against UV radiation, moisturizing, delays premature skin aging

D-Mixed Tocopherols:
This is the name given to a mixture of natural tocopherols (vitamin E; D-alpha, beta, gamma and delta tocopherol). Vitamin E is the most important skin-protecting vitamin, shielding the skin from UV rays and free radicals.

Beta-Carotene:
Provitamin A: Fat-soluble vitamin with antioxidant properties, counteracts photo-oxidative stress during sun exposure, cell-damaging free radicals, protects unsaturated fatty acids from oxidation, is skin-protecting and skin-regenerating.

Lactic Acid:
Lactic acid. Occurs as a metabolic product in the body and on the skin; in higher concentrations and at a low pH value of 2 to 3, it has an exfoliating effect on the stratum corneum; in buffered form (physiological pH value of the skin approx. 5.5), it supports the moisture content and preserves the skin's acid mantle.

Magnesium Sulfate:
Epsom salt, stabilizer in W/O formulations
