ECO Metrics
Components by Skin Type
Detailed view
#1Water
Water is a great solvent. It’s neutral and doesn’t provide any strong positive or negative effects. It just helps components to mix better and to transport active components.
#2Cocamidopropyl Betaine
Cocamidopropyl Betaine is a pH 4.5-5.5 liquid that is used to improve the overall efficiency of the formulation. It’s usually combined with different surfactants and is used because of its cleansing efficiency. It helps to remove sebum and dirt from the skin and hair. It also works as a foaming agent helping to make a pleasant foam.
#3Coco-Glucoside
#4Alcohol Denatured
![Bad for dry skin](https://skinsignal.com/api/web/image/layout/dry_bad.png?w=30&q=50)
Alcohol Denatured is a great bacteria killer. Manufacturers often put it inside products to increase their shelf life.
It’s one of the most harmful alcohols used in skincare. You should use it carefully, especially if you have dry skin. It removes oily barrier from the surface of your skin making it less protected and causing dryness. We advise you to pay attention to the position of this component in a formulation. If it stays below the 6th position it will hardly harm your skin. We also recommend testing the product first before application. If you feel a “cooling effect” it means the product contains a lot of alcohol and it's better to be careful with it.
#5Glycerin
![Good for dry skin](https://skinsignal.com/api/web/image/layout/dry_good.png?w=30&q=50)
Glycerin is one of the most outstanding and helpful skincare components. It's used in many skincare products because it works and provides notable results. It's one of the best moisturizers. Molecules of Glycerin can absorb water and deliver it into deep layers of the skin making it hydrated.
The component is researched very well. Many scientific researches confirm the safety and the efficiency of the component.
