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).
Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside:
An anionic surfactant and solubilizer; produced from fatty alcohols and glucose of vegetable origin.
Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate:
Mild basic surfactant, cleanses the skin without stripping it of its natural oils; derived from coconut oil.
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.
Butylene Glycol:
Solvent with moisturizing properties for the skin, very well tolerated, should be preferred to propylene glycol in products used daily.
Glyceryl Oleate:
It is a component of sebum, a partially saponified fat, with skin-protecting and moisturizing properties, and acts as a re-fatting agent in cleansing products. It also serves as a consistency enhancer and emulsifier for lotions and creams.
Sucrose Cocoate:
Mild, non-ionic surfactant with emollient properties, obtained from cane sugar and fat, thereby improving the tolerability of other surfactants.
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.
Sodium Hyaluronate:
Sodium salt of hyaluronic acid. A natural moisturizer with skin-smoothing properties, an important natural component of the lower layers of the skin (dermis). Formerly extracted from rooster combs, it is now produced biotechnologically in improved quality.
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.
Coco-Glucoside:
Mild sugar surfactant
Xanthan Gum:
Polysaccharide, a natural gelling agent with very good skin-friendly properties, is obtained biotechnologically.
Glyceryl Caprylate:
Lipid based on glycerin and fatty acids.
