Fragrance: this formula contains added fragrance.
| Ingredient | What it is | What it does for skin |
|---|---|---|
| Panthenol | Pro-vitamin B5, which converts to pantothenic acid once absorbed into skin. | Hydrates as a humectant, supports wound healing, and has anti-inflammatory, soothing effects on irritated skin. |
| Betaine | An amino-acid-derived humectant, naturally found in sugar beets and also present in snail mucin. | Helps draw and hold moisture in the skin, and has mild soothing properties. |
| Niacinamide | A form of vitamin B3, one of the most studied ingredients in cosmetic dermatology. | Strengthens the skin barrier by boosting ceramide production, helps even out tone by limiting pigment transfer to skin cells, and can reduce the look of enlarged pores. |
| Propolis extract | A resin-like substance bees create from plant compounds, used for its antimicrobial properties. | Has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects that help calm irritation and support healing, often used for acne-prone or sensitive skin.Note: Bee-derived; worth noting for anyone with a known bee product or propolis allergy. |
| Cholesterol | One of the three core lipids (alongside ceramides and fatty acids) that make up the skin barrier. | Works together with ceramides and fatty acids to reinforce the barrier and reduce moisture loss. |
| Ceramide NP | One specific, well-studied type of ceramide used in skincare formulas. | Reinforces the skin barrier and helps it retain moisture, the same core ceramide function. |
| Tocopherol | The chemical name for vitamin E as typically used in skincare formulas. | Helps neutralize free radicals from UV and pollution exposure and supports the skin's moisture barrier. |
| Sodium hyaluronate | The salt form of hyaluronic acid, commonly used for its water solubility and stability in formulas; molecular weight varies by product rather than being uniformly smaller. | Draws and holds moisture the same way hyaluronic acid does; how easily it absorbs depends on the specific molecular weight used, which formulas don't always disclose. |
| Madecassoside | One of centella asiatica's key active compounds, often isolated and purified. | A soothing, antioxidant compound studied for calming sensitive and reactive skin and supporting barrier repair. |
