Ingredients

SUSTAINABILITY

Rating: Moderate

1. Aqua (Water): Widely available, but excessive use in formulations can strain water resources.
2. Glycerin: Biodegradable and often plant derived. Synthetic glycerin has a lower sustainability profile due to its petroleum base.
3. Petrolatum: Petroleum-based and non-renewable. Biodegradable but tied to fossil fuel extraction.
4. Niacinamide: Synthetic vitamin B3 derivative. Resource-intensive production, but stable and non-toxic.
5. Paraffinum Liquidum (Mineral Oil): Derived from petroleum, non-renewable. Biodegradable but impacts tied to fossil fuel extraction.
6. Dimethicone: Silicone-based emollient. Non-biodegradable and persistent in the environment, though it has low toxicity.
7. Cetearyl Alcohol: Plant-derived fatty alcohol, renewable, and biodegradable when sustainably sourced.
8. Lactic Acid: Biodegradable and derived from natural fermentation. Environmentally friendly with minimal impact.
9. Glyceryl Stearate SE: Biodegradable and partially plant based. Sustainability depends on the source of stearic acid.
10. Ceteareth-20: Synthetic surfactant derived from polyethylene glycol (PEG). Biodegradability is low, and production involves petrochemicals.
11. Sodium PCA: Biodegradable, derived from natural amino acids, and with minimal environmental impact.
12. Stearic Acid: Typically, plant-derived (e.g., palm or coconut oil). Biodegradable but environmental impact depends on sustainable sourcing.
13. Caprylyl Glycol and 1,2-Hexanediol: Synthetic humectants, biodegradable, with moderate environmental production impact.
14. Laureth-3: Synthetic surfactant. Low biodegradability and potential aquatic toxicity; production involves petrochemicals.
15. Xanthan Gum: Biodegradable, naturally derived through fermentation of sugars.
16. Sodium Hydroxide: Widely used in small quantities. Low environmental impact when used responsibly.
17. Ceramide NP, Ceramide EOP: Synthetic or plant derived. Synthetic versions have higher environmental footprints.
18. Cholesterol: Often animal- or synthetic-derived. Sustainability depends on sourcing.
19. Carthamus Tinctorius (Safflower) Seed Oil: Plant-based, renewable, and biodegradable. Farming practices impact sustainability.
