Ingredients explained

Isopropyl Myristate
Est. %45
Function
Origin
Isopropyl MyristateA fast-spreading, cost-effective, non-greasy emollient that is typically used for lubrication, spreadability, or to remove “tackiness” from a product. Isopropyl Myristate is listed as a common comedogenic ingredient by acne.org.
Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride
Est. %22
Function
Origin
Caprylic/Capric TriglycerideA natural occlusive moisturizing and emollient ingredient, it is a blend of glycerin and two fatty acids, caprylic and capric acid. It creates an oil-based protective layer on the skin, thereby preventing water loss.
Ethylhexyl Palmitate

PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil
Est. %3
Function
Origin
PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor OilA castor oil-derived ingredient often used to incorporate small amounts of oil (such as a fragrance) into a water-based product. PEG-4 HCO is a gold-standard solubilizer and can be used in low amounts due to its ability to solubilize things so well.
Octyldodecanol
Est. %2
Function

Est. %0.3
Function
Origin
Diethoxyethyl Succinate
Dehydroacetic Acid
Est. %0.3
Function
Origin

Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil
Est. %0.3
Function
Origin
