#1Water

Origin: natural

Role: Solvent

EWG Rating [ 1 ]

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.

Origin: chemical

Role: Fragrance ingredient, Humectant, Solvent

Antioxidants

Moisturizing

Acne fighting

Lifting

EWG Rating [ 1 ]

Gluconolactone belongs to poly hydroxy acids (PHA). It’s very similar to AHAs chemically, that’s why it is usually presented as a «Next Generation AHA». It has all the benefits of AHA but it doesn’t irritate the skin. It’s a strong natural antioxidant which is as strong as Tocopherol or Ascorbic Acid.

#3Pentylene Glycol

Origin: chemical

Role: Skin conditioning agent, Solvent

Moisturizing

Hair conditioning

EWG Rating [ 1 ]

CIR Rating [ A ]

Pentylene Glycol is a great replacement for Propylene Glycol. It has very similar characteristics but it’s derived from plants (usually from corn). Natural cosmetics lovers will find this component very useful. It enhances the moisturizing effect of cosmetic products, improves the efficiency of preservatives and it’s an effective emulsifier. It’s approved by ECOCERT and COSMOS so it’s considered to be 100% safe and can be used in vegan products.
