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.

Cyclopentasiloxane is a fluid silicone. It’s non-greasy and doesn’t have any scent or color. It evaporates pretty fast which makes this ingredient essential when it comes to making products that have to dry quickly. It also gives a nice silky feeling when you apply the product to the skin and hair. It leaves a thin film that protects the skin after evaporation.

Cyclopentasiloxane is chemically neutral, meaning it doesn’t react with other components.

Dipropylene Glycol is a solvent, emulsifier, viscosity decreasing, and masking agent. It helps to extract useful chemicals from plants and leaves, making natural components in a product more effective. It also helps to hydrate the skin. Considered safe for health and doesn't irritate the skin in common concentration.

Aloe Barbadensis (Aloe Vera) Leaf Juice is a natural juice received from Aloe leaves. It has been used in cosmetics for hundreds of ages. Scientists have discovered that it contains more than 200 nutrients: minerals, amino acids, vitamins, and so on. It’s a good component for calming irritated skin. It also helps to heal wounds, helps the skin regenerate faster, improves collagen syncretization, tones up, and moisturizes the skin. It also provides a slight UV-filtering effect.

Green Tea Leaf Extract is a great antioxidant often used in Korean skincare products. It contains EGCG - the most effective flavonoid. It makes the skin look fresh, fills it with vitamines, and helps to prevent aging. It also helps to lower inflammation.

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.

Potassium Phosphate is an inorganic salt commonly used in cosmetics and skincare formulations. While it’s not a “hero ingredient” like niacinamide or ceramides, it plays important supporting roles that help a product stay stable, comfortable on the skin, and effective.

Potassium Phosphate (often listed as Dipotassium Phosphate or Monopotassium Phosphate depending on its form) is a buffering and chelating agent. In skincare chemistry, it helps regulate and maintain a product's pH balance — a crucial factor for both stability and skin compatibility. It helps to achieve PH balance by preventing the formula from becoming too acidic or too alkaline over time.

Main Functions:

• pH Buffering Agent - Its primary purpose is to stabilize pH. Many active ingredients — such as niacinamide, ceramides, or hyaluronic acid — perform best within a particular pH range. Potassium Phosphate ensures they stay effective throughout the product’s shelf life.
• Stabilizer for Emulsions - In creams and lotions, it helps maintain the stability of emulsions (the blend of water and oils), preventing unwanted separation.
• Enhances Product Comfort - A stable pH often means better skin tolerance. By keeping the formula balanced, Potassium Phosphate indirectly helps reduce the risk of stinging, redness, and irritation, especially in sensitive skin.
• Supports Ingredient Performance - Some actives can lose potency if the formula drifts out of range. Potassium Phosphate keeps the environment optimal, protecting their performance.
