Ocean Potion xxx Sunscreen Lotion
Ingredients explainedAlso-called: Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane | What-information technology-does: sunscreen
The famous Avobenzone. It is a special snowflake equally it isthe but globally bachelor chemical sunscreen agent that provides proper UVA protection (in the Usa, new generation sunscreen agents are not approved because of impossible FDA regulations). It is the global aureate standard of UVA protection and is the most used UVA sunscreen in the world.
It gives very skillful protection across the whole UVA range (310-400 nm that is both UVA1 and UVA2) with a peak protection at 360 nm. The trouble with it, though, is that it isnot photostable and degrades in the sunlight. Wikipedia says that avobenzone loses 36% of its UV-absorption capacity after only 1 60 minutes of sunlight (aye, this is one of the reasons why sunscreens accept to be reapplied after a few hours).
The cosmetic's industry is trying to solve the problem by combining avobenzone with other UV filters that heighten its stability (like octocrylene, Tinosorb South or Ensulizole) or by encapsulating it and while both solutions help, neither is perfect. Interestingly, the combination of avobenzone with mineral sunscreens (that is titanium dioxide and zinc oxide) is non a expert idea. In the U.s., information technology is flat out prohibited every bit avobenzone becomes unstable when combined with mineral sunscreens.
As for prophylactic, avobenzone has a pretty good prophylactic profile. It counts equally non-irritating, and unlike another chemical sunscreens, it shows no estrogenic outcome. The maximum concentration of avobenzone permitted is 5% in the Eu and 3% in the US.
An oil-soluble chemic sunscreen agent that protects the skin from UVB (295-315 nm) with a elevation protection at 306 nm. Homosalate isnot a strong UV filter in and of itself (gives only SPF 4.three protection at max. allowed 10% concentration) and it isnot photostable (looses 10% of its SPF protection in 45 mins) so information technology ever has to be combined with other sunscreens for proper protection. Its big advantage, though, is that it is a liquid and is fantabulous for dissolving other hard to solubilize pulverisation sunscreen agents, similar the famous Avobenzone.
Regarding Homosalate'southward rubber profile, we do not have the best news. In-vitro (fabricated in the labs) studies have shown that information technology might have some estrogenic activity. Practice not panic, these studies were non conducted on real humans under real globe conditions. Still, if y'all are a 'better safe than sorry' type, be careful when using Homosalate containing sunscreens long-term and full-trunk.
Every bit of 2020, Homosalate is permitted to be used up to ten% in the EU and 15% in the US, simply the Eu is currently considering restricting it to only i.four% (probably taking upshot from 2022).
As well-chosen: Octyl Salicylate, Octisalate;Ethylhexyl Salicylate | What-it-does: sunscreen | Irritancy: 0 | Comedogenicity: 0
A colorless to low-cal yellowish oily liquid that works equally a UVB (280-320nm) sunscreen filter with a peak absorbance at 306 nm. It's not a potent filter in itself, information technology's always used in combination with other sunscreen agents to further enhance the SPF and to solubilize other solid UV filters.
It has a good safety profile and is allowed to exist used at a max concentration of 5% both in the U.s.a. and in Europe (10% is immune in Nihon).
An oil-soluble chemic sunscreen amanuensis that protects peel in the UVB and somewhat in the UVA Two range with a peak absorption of 304 nm. Its protection is not strong enough on its own simply it is quite photostable (loses 10% of SPF protection in 95 mins) and is often used to stabilize other photo-unstable UV-filters, for case, Avobenzone. Information technology is also often used to improve the water resistance of the products.
Octocrylene'south safety contour is generally quite skilful, though a review study in Contact Dermatitis reports an "increasing number of patients with photo contact allergy to octocrylene." Mainly adults with ketoprofen-sensitivity and children with sensitive peel are afflicted, so if you have a small kid, it is probably better to utilise octocrylene-free sunscreens.
Though its long proper name does not reveal it, this polymer molecule (big molecule from repeated subunits or monomers) is a relative to the super mutual, water-loving thickener, Carbomer. Both of them are big molecules that contain acrylic acid units, but Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer also contains some other monomers that are hydrophobic, i.e. water-hating.
This ways that our molecule is office water- and part oil-loving, then it non only works as a thickener only also as an emulsion stabilizer. Information technology is very common in gel-blazon formulas that also contain an oil-phase also as in cleansers as information technology also works with most cleansing agents (unlike a lot of other thickeners).
Acrylates/C12-22 Alkyl Methacrylate Copolymer is a large molecule created from repeating subunits (aka polymer) used as a film-erstwhile. It is corking at improving the h2o and wear resistance of sunscreens and makeup products.
Aloe Vera is one of today's magic plants. It does have some very prissy properties indeed, though famous dermatologist Leslie Baumann warns us in her book that most of the testify is anecdotal and the plant might exist a bit overhyped.
What research does confirm about Aloe is that it's a great moisturizer and has several anti-inflammatory (amid others contains salicylates, polysaccharides, magnesium lactate and C-glucosyl chromone) equally well as some antibacterial components. It as well helps wound healing and pare regeneration in general. All in all definitely a goodie.
- Works all-time between a concentration of 5-20%
- Boosts the skin'southward ain collagen production
- Fades pigmentation and brown spots
- If used under sunscreen information technology boosts its UV protection
- Extremely unstable and oxidizes very easily in presence of light or air
- Stable in solutions with water simply if pH is less than 3.v or in waterless formulations
- Vit E + C work in synergy and provide superb photoprotection
- Ferulic acid doubles the photoprotection outcome of Vit C+E and helps to stabilize Vit C
- Potent Vit. C serums might crusade a slight tingling on sensitive skin

Nosotros don't take description for this ingredient yet.
It's a handy multi-tasking ingredient that gives the pare a dainty, soft feel. At the aforementioned time, it likewise boosts the effectiveness of other preservatives, such as the nowadays super commonly used phenoxyethanol.

It's a so-chosen fatty alcohol, a mix of cetyl and stearyl alcohol, other 2 emollient fatty alcohols. Though chemically speaking, it is alcohol (equally in, it has an -OH group in its molecule), its properties are totally different from the properties of low molecular weight or drying alcohols such as denat. alcohol. Fatty alcohols have a long oil-soluble (and thus emollient) tail function that makes them admittedly non-drying and non-irritating and are totally ok for the skin.
What-information technology-does: emollient, solvent | Irritancy: 0 | Comedogenicity: 0
A water light oily liquid (aka ester) that has a light skin feeling and is often used to reduce tackiness and lighten the experience of heavier emollients. Information technology's popular in sunscreens to "lighten upward" oil soluble chemical UV filters.
What-it-does: emollient | Irritancy: 0 | Comedogenicity: 1
Probably themost common silicone of all. Information technology is a polymer (created from repeating subunits) molecule and has dissimilar molecular weight and thus dissimilar viscosity versions from water-light to thick liquid.
As for skincare, information technology makes the skin silky smooth, creates a subtle gloss and forms a protective barrier (aka occlusive). Also, works well to fill up in fine lines and wrinkles and give skin a plump look (of course that is only temporary, but withal, it'south nice). There are likewise scar treatment gels out there using dimethicone as their base ingredient. It helps to soften scars and increase their elasticity.
As for hair care, it is a non-volatile silicone meaning that it stays on the hair rather than evaporates from it andsmoothes the hair like no other thing.

If you are someone who likes to know what you put on your face then fragrance is not your best friend - there's no mode to know what'due south actually in information technology.
As well, if your pare is sensitive, fragrance is again not your all-time friend. It's the number 1 cause of contact allergy to cosmetics. Information technology's definitely a smart thing to avert with sensitive pare (and fragrance of any type - natural is just every bit allergic as synthetic, if not worse!).
- A natural moisturizer that'due south as well in our skin
- A super common, safe, constructive and cheap molecule used for more than than fifty years
- Non only a simple moisturizer but knows much more: keeps the skin lipids betwixt our skin cells in a healthy (liquid crystal) state, protects confronting irritation, helps to restore barrier
- Effective from as depression equally 3% with even more than benefits at college concentrations up to xx-40% (around 10% is a good usability-effectiveness sugariness spot)
- High-glycerin moisturizers are awesome for treating severely dry pare
Read all the geeky details well-nigh Glycerin here >>
A super mutual, waxy, white, solid stuff that helps water and oil to mix together, gives torso to creams and leaves the skin feeling soft and smooth.
Chemically speaking, it is the attachment of a glycerin molecule to the fatty acid called stearic acrid. It can be produced from most vegetable oils (in oils 3 fatty acid molecules are attached to glycerin instead of simply i similar here) in a pretty simple, "green" process that is similar to soap making. It's readily biodegradable.
It as well occurs naturally in our body and is used as a food condiment. Every bit cosmetic pharmacist Colins writes it, "its prophylactic really is beyond any doubt".

The extract coming from Laminaria Saccharina, a brown algae. According to manufacturer info, it's loaded with a bunch of skilful-for-the-peel things:alginates are polysaccharides (a large molecule from repeating sugar units) that are water-loving and tin grade a protective film on the peel. This means moisturizing, peel protecting and soothing magic properties.
The excerpt too contains another polysaccharide chosen laminarin, that hasdecongestant and lipid-reducing action that might be useful for combination, acne-prone peel types.
The 3rd major type of actives in the Laminaria Saccharina Excerpt are phenolic compounds that have antioxidant and soothing properties. They can besides trap heavy metal ions, and give sensitive skin some protection against polluted urban air.
Besides-called: Kelp Extract
We don't accept description for this ingredient notwithstanding.
A clear, odorless, very calorie-free emollient ester that helps to achieve low-cal textures. It has great spreadability, a good slip, and a silky skin feel.

Nosotros don't accept description for this ingredient yet.
A very mutual water-loving surfactant and emulsifier that helps to proceed h2o and oil mixed nicely together.
It'southward oft paired with glyceryl stearate - the two together class a super effective emulsifier duo that's salt and acid tolerant and works over a wide pH range. It also gives a "pleasing product aesthetics", and then no wonder it's popular.
We don't have clarification for this ingredient yet.
Information technology's pretty much the current IT-preservative. It'southward safe and gentle, but even more importantly, it's non a feared-by-everyone-mostly-without-scientific-reason paraben.
Information technology's not something new: it was introduced around 1950 and today it can be used upwardly to 1% worldwide. It tin can exist found in nature - in light-green tea - only the version used in cosmetics is synthetic.
Other than having a good prophylactic profile and being quite gentle to the skin it has some other advantages too. It can be used in many types of formulations as it has groovy thermal stability (tin can exist heated up to 85°C) and works on a wide range of pH levels (ph 3-10).
Information technology's often used together with ethylhexylglycerin as it nicely improves the preservative action of phenoxyethanol.
A vegetable-based emulsifier that helps the oily and watery parts of the formula to mix nicely together. It is compatible with a bunch of cosmetic oils too as active ingredients and its specialty is creating emulsions with super high rut and freeze stability (from -25 °C and +50 °C).
A white to biscuit pulverisation that is described every bit the gilded standard emulsifier for emulsions (oil+h2o mixtures) that are hard to stabilize. It is especially pop in sunscreens every bit information technology tin can boost SPF protection and increase the water-resistance of the formula.
We don't have description for this ingredient yet.
Also-called: lye | What-information technology-does: buffering
The unfancy proper noun for it is lye. Information technology's a solid white stuff that'due south very alkaline and used in pocket-size amounts to adjust the pH of the product and make it only right.
For case, in example of AHA or BHA exfoliants, the right pH is super-duper of import, and pH adjusters like sodium hydroxide are needed.
BTW, lye is not something new. It was already used by ancient Egyptians to help oil and fat magically turn into something else. Can you lot estimate what? Yep, it'due south lather. It notwithstanding frequently shows up in the ingredient list of soaps and other cleansers.
Sodium hydroxide in itself is a potent pare irritant, but once it'south reacted (as it is usually in peel care products, similar exfoliants) information technology is totally harmless.
We don't have clarification for this ingredient yet.
We don't have description for this ingredient yet.
Besides-called: Vitamin Due east Acetate | What-information technology-does: antioxidant | Irritancy: 0 | Comedogenicity: 0
It's the most unremarkably used version of pure vitamin Due east in cosmetics. You can read all about the pure form here. This one is the and then-chosen esterified version.
According to famous dermatologist, Leslie Baumann while tocopheryl acetate is more stable and has a longer shelf life, it's too more poorly absorbed by the skin and may non have the same crawly photoprotective furnishings as pure Vit E.
A clear, colorless, very hands spreadable and very volatile (evaporates from the skin easily) silicone fluid. It leaves a non-greasy, dry-smooth feel on the skin.
Besides-called: Aqua | What-information technology-does: solvent
Good old water, aka H2o. The most mutual skincare ingredient of all. Y'all tin usually find it right in the very first spot of the ingredient list, meaning it'due south the biggest affair out of all the stuff that makes up the product.
It's mainly a solvent for ingredients that practice not like to dissolve in oils but rather in water.
Once within the skin, it hydrates, but not from the outside - putting pure water on the skin (hello long baths!) is drying.
One more thing: the water used in cosmetics is purified and deionized (it means that almost all of the mineral ions inside it is removed). Like this, the products tin can stay more stable over time.
It's one of the near unremarkably used thickeners and emulsion stabilizers. If the product is too runny, a little xanthan gum will brand it more gel-like. Used lone, information technology can make the formula sticky and it is a good team player so it is usually combined with other thickeners and so-called rheology modifiers (helper ingredients that adjust the flow and thus the feel of the formula). The typical employ level of Xantha Mucilage is below one%, it is usually in the 0.1-0.5% range.
Btw, Xanthan gum is all natural, a chain of sugar molecules (polysaccharide) produced from private sugar molecules (glucose and sucrose) via fermentation. It'southward approved by Ecocert and also used in the food industry (E415).
