Organic compounds
Organic compounds are an inherent part of skin care products. These ingredients are structurally similar to natural body compounds, making them efficient in many functions. For example, they easily penetrate the layers of skin, stimulate the synthesis of skin proteins, fight free radicals, and ''dissolve" dead skin cells. Thus, organic compounds visibly ameliorate skin wrinkling, sagging, and scaling.
Potassium Glycyrrhizinate (Dipotassium Glycyrrhizinate) is the potassium salt o
Potassium Sorbate is the potassium salt of sorbic acid, the most used food-grade preservative initially found in fruits of Sorbus and got its name from those berries.
PPG-2 Hydroxyethyl Cocamide is a pale yellow liquid. It is a highly effective, multifunctional, nonionic surfactant that offers a wide range of benefits to rinse off personal care products.
PPG-2 Hydroxyethyl Coco/Isostearamide is an active liquid surfactant that replaces DEA-alkanolamides. It provides excellent foam stabilization and fragrance solubilization in formulations.
PPG-3 Benzyl Ether Myristate is a multifunctional emollient ester that provides all of the benefits of silicone, a silicone-like shine, and similar feel characteristics, plus additional benefits unavailable with silicones.
Propanediol (also known as 1,3-propanediol) is an organic solvent, emollient, and adsorption booster derived from corn starch. It solubilizes and emulsifies oil, dirt, and makeup and rinses off the skin.
Propanediol Dicaprylate is a diester of propanediol and caprylic acid derived from vegetable raw materials. It is used in organic cosmetics products as a natural replacement for silicones.
Propyl Alcohol (1-propanol) is a medium-volatility, polar solvent of very high purity and mild odor. Purest 1-propanol is specially intended for cosmetic applications.
Propylene Carbonate is a clear polar solvent with high boiling and flash points. It has a low order of toxicity and a mild, ether-like odor. It is stable under storage and handling conditions and is not hygroscopic or corrosive.
Propylene Glycol is diol alcohol (it contains two hydroxy groups in 1 and 2 positions—propane-1,2-diol), a humectant or humidifying and delivery ingredient used in cosmetics.
Propylene Glycol Dicaprate is a diester of selected high-purity vegetable fatty acids and propylene glycol. It is a clear viscose liquid completely miscible with mineral oils and pure ethanol.
Propylene Glycol Diethylhexanoate is a branched diester of propylene glycol, a clear liquid with a neutral odor. Fully refined and deodorized, it has exceptional stability and is miscible with most cosmetic solvents, including ethanol.
Propylene Glycol Stearate SE is a primary emulsifier for lotions and low-viscosity creams. It is a self-emulsifying (SE) option of Propylene Glycol Stearate with sodium and/or potassium stearate contamination.
Propylparaben is a propyl ester of p-hydroxybenzoic acid, a widely used broad-spectrum preservative used in personal care products, pharmaceuticals, and some foods. It has intensive growth-inhibiting effects on mold fungi, yeasts, and bacteria.
Resorcinol, or 1,3 dihydroxybenzene, is a common chemical intermediate that finds utility in applications ranging from wood glue resins, leather dyes, pharmacology, and permanent hair-coloring products.
Resveratrol Dimethyl Ether (Pterostilbene) is a phytoalexin found in grapes and berries. Structurally close to resveratrol and exhibiting similar properties, it is one of the primary antioxidant elements of blueberries.
Approved by FDA as a GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) ingredient, Sodium Benzoate is well-known, globally trusted, and remarkably effective preservative for skin, eye, lip, and hair care products.
Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) is the second most abundant essential fatty acid in the skin and possibly even more important than linoleic acid for maintaining effective moisture barrier properties.
Sodium C12-15 Pareth-15 Sulfonate is a sulfonate-capped linear alkyl ethoxylate, an anti-irritating anionic surfactant. Its structure is unique among commercially available surfactants, with a hydrophobic portion comprising 15 moles of et
Sodium C14-16 Olefin Sulfonate is an aqueous solution of sodium olefin sulfonate which is produced by the continuous sulfonation of alpha olefins. It is a light yellow pearly liquid.
Sodium Citrate is a common name for sodium salts (monosodium, disodium, or trisodium citrate) of citric acid is used as a food-grade preservative.
Sodium Coco PG-Dimonium Chloride Phosphate is a phospholipid complex composed predominantly of diester phosphatides with multiple long-chain groups.
Sodium Coco-Sulfate (CFAS) is a naturally derived anionic surfactant produced by sulfating coconut-derived fatty alcohols. As more people become familiar with its unique properties, it is beginning to be used in personal care applications.
Amphopropionates, also known as “salt-free” amphoterics, have been used for many years in personal care products. There are two types, mono- and di-propionates.
Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate is a mild surfactant designed for cleansing products. It is nearly salt-free and resistant to hard and salt water with high foaming properties.
Sodium Dehydroacetate is the sodium salt of dehydroacetic acid (DHA) and is a tasteless and white powder.
It is widely used in skin and hair care preparations thanks to numerous beneficial actions, including humectant, buffering, antiseptic, energizing, thickener, emollient, and preservative.
Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLES) is derived from coconut and it is used primarily as a detergent-cleansing agent. It is the sodium salt of the ether sulfate obtained through the sulfation of ethoxylated lauryl alcohol.
