C18-36 Acid Glycol Ester is an ester of ethylene glycol and C18-36 acid and acts as an emulsifier(1).

C18-36 Acid Triglyceride is a synthetic lipid that is used as a skin care product with occlusive properties(1).

C32–54 Isoalkanes is a mixture of branched, saturated hydrocarbons (isoalkanes). The designation "C32–54" describes the range of carbon chain lengths of the alkyl compounds contained. In cosmetics, it has a skin-care effect by acting as a softening emollient to give a smooth, soft skin surface and thus keep the skin in good condition.

Camellia Sinensis is the name of the tea plant, which is also used to make green tea. Camellia sinensis Leaf Extract is the extract from the plant's leaves, which is used in cosmetics as a skin care product.(1-2) This leaf extract is particularly beneficial for skin care due to its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties. (3-5) The antioxidant capacity of green tea extract is based on the composition of its bioactive components. These include polyphenols, amino acids, vitamins, and other secondary plant compounds.

Caprylhydroxamic acid is a chelating agent. Chelating agents are substances used in cosmetic products to neutralize metal ions in the formulation. The special feature of this chelating agent is that it not only acts as a preservative but also has preservative properties.

Caprylic/capric triglyceride is also known as neutral oil and is a naturally occurring skin lipid in sebum, which consists of a mixture of medium-chain fatty acids (triglycerides).

Caprylic/capric triglyceride is used in cosmetic products for its nourishing properties, while it is non-irritating and non-sensitizing.(1)

It moisturizes by forming a light, non-greasy barrier and is absorbed very quickly. As a dispersing agent, it can help to distribute active ingredients such as vitamins evenly in a solution so that they can be easily absorbed by the epidermis.

Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside is a mild, nonionic sugar surfactant. It is the product obtained by condensing a mixture of caprylic and decyl alcohols with glucose. Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside is recognized as safe in current practices and concentrations of use.

Caprylyl glycol has several important functions in cosmetic products. It has nourishing and moisturizing properties as well as antimicrobial properties. The latter helps to improve the stability of cosmetic products. (1-2) In combination with 1,2-hexanediol, caprylyl glycol enhances the preservation system, for example in our The Ten Out Of Ten Gentle Gel Cleanser. In addition, study results have shown that caprylyl glycol is well tolerated by the skin. (3)
