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).

Alcohol:
Ethyl alcohol: Biocompatible. Has a refreshing and antibacterial effect. Also serves as a solvent for other ingredients. Contrary to other claims, there is no risk of a drying effect on the skin at normal concentrations!

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride:
Vegetable neutral oil (triglyceride) with short-chain fatty acids. Has moisturizing properties.

Glycerin:
Body-identical, a component of the natural moisturizing factor and lipids/triglycerides. Improves skin hydration, influences the consistency and texture of cosmetic products, and has antimicrobial properties.

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.

Glyceryl Stearate Citrate:
O/W emulsifier based on body-identical glycerol esters and citric acid

Vegetable Oil:
Skin-identical base oil made from plant-based raw materials, also declared as Olus Oil.

Glyceryl Stearate:
It is a component of sebum, a partially saponified fat, with skin-protecting and moisturizing properties, and acts as a consistency enhancer and auxiliary emulsifier for lotions and creams.

Lecithin:
Lecithin is an important component of all cell membranes. It can form liposomes. These liposomes can significantly increase the skin's moisture content, transport skin-friendly vitamins into the skin, and, due to their polyunsaturated fatty acid content, combat acne. Furthermore, lecithin acts as a natural emulsifier of plant origin and supports the skin's natural lipid barrier, smoothing and retaining moisture. Lecithin (and) D-alpha-Tocopheryl Acetate (and) Retinyl Palmitate is the correct declaration for nanosomes loaded with natural vitamin E and vitamin A. Nanosomes can transport fat-soluble substances into the skin.

Glycosphingolipids:
Glycolytically bound ceramides. They are found in all cell membranes of the body; in the epidermis, they are the precursor of ceramides, an important component of the stratum corneum lipids, which are released from these lipids by enzymes.

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.

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.

Allantoin:
Allantoin is a naturally occurring, water-soluble substance chemically related to urea. It is found in various plants, but for cosmetic use, it is now produced synthetically. Its most important property is the stimulation of cell regeneration. It promotes collagen production, skin regeneration and wound healing, stimulates desquamation, smooths the skin, and can have a soothing effect on atopic dermatitis.

Stearyl Alcohol:
A fatty alcohol identical to those found in the body, occurring as an intermediate in fat metabolism, also present in small amounts in the epidermis. A consistency enhancer in emulsions.

Citric Acid:
Citric acid. A biotechnologically produced, bioidentical active ingredient. It occurs naturally in the human body and is also found in low concentrations on the skin. It protects the skin from oxidative stress, supports the product protection provided by antioxidants, and regulates the product's pH value.

Hydrogenated Phosphatidylcholine:
A phospholipid produced by the body.

Sodium Hydroxide:
Sodium hydroxide. Used to adjust the pH of cosmetic products. Sodium and hydroxide ions are identical to those found in the body.
