CIR Rating [ B ]

Lactic Acid is the most popular and the least aggressive acid among all the AHAs. Unlike Salicylic and Glycolic acids which can irritate your skin, Lactic Acid will hardly cause any problems. The combination of its soft action and effectiveness makes it a real brilliant. It exfoliates dead cells, makes the skin tone even, clears pores, kills bacteria, moisturizes the skin and helps to keep water, helps the cells to produce Hyaluronic Acid. It also works as a strong antioxidant and anti-aging component.

It's a great acid for getting familiar with the world of AHAs. If you want to start using "fruit acids" but struggling for some reason, try to use Lactic Acid first. If your skin accepts it well, you can try stronger acids.

Position 4

#5Phenoxyethanol

Origin: chemical
Role: Fragrance ingredient, Preservative
Antiseptic
EWG Rating [ 2 ]
CIR Rating [ A ]

Phenoxyethanol is one of the most popular preservatives. It kills bacteria and makes the product live longer. Manufacturers like this ingredient because it can dissolve in any liquid, even in oils.

Another purpose of this component is the fixation of aromas in perfumery. Phenoxyethanol is also used as a strong antiseptic and a good antibacterial agent. It is widely used in dermatological cosmetics alongside natural antiseptics such as chamomile, sage, and calendula.

Like many other preservatives, Phenoxyethanol is a strong chemical. European Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 allows this component in cosmetics at a maximum concentration of 1%. Clinical studies showed that the component doesn’t irritate the skin and doesn’t make it sensitive. According to the CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 it’s not toxic.

#5Cetearyl Alcohol

Origin: chemical
Role: Emollient, Emulsifying agent, Emulsion stabilizer, Foam booster, Surfactant, Viscosity controlling agent
Comedogenic rating [ 2 ]
EWG Rating [ 1 ]
CIR Rating [ A ]

Cetearyl Alcohol is used mostly for formulation purposes. It’s a very good emulsifier and emulsion stabilizer. It helps the ingredients mix better and it makes the product spread on your skin evenly. It also makes the product thicker. It doesn’t belong to harmful alcohols and it will not dry your skin.
