Description of Ingredients
Zinc Oxide (ZinClear™):
Zinc Oxide Dispersions are a breakthrough technology for sun protection applications. Their distinct particle structure allows for excellent transparency in a micron-sized particle -- transparency that can't be matched by even nano-sized particles. Zin-Clear™ IM products provide full-spectrum coverage from ultraviolet rays (UVA and UVB), and provides high SPF ratings without the need for chemical UV absorbers.
Titanium Dioxide:
Titanium Dioxide is used for its high refractive index, strong UV light absorbing capabilities, and its resistance to discoloration under ultraviolet light. This advantage enhances its stability and ability to protect the skin from ultraviolet light.
Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride:
Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride is an oily liquid made from coconut oil. In cosmetics and personal care products, it is used in the formulation of lipstick, eye makeup, foundations, blushers, perfumes, moisturizers, suntan/sunscreen products and many other products.
Ceteryl Alcohol:
Ceteryl Alcohol is an emulsifier that supports the main emulsion system and gives texture to the product.
Cetearyl Glucoside:
Cetearyl glucoside is a surfactant and emulsifier produced from coconut and corn sugar. Protects the skin's natural oil and moisture balance and aids the delivery of active ingredients into the skin.
Coco-Caprylate/Caprate:
Coco-Caprylate/Caprate is a traditional, medium-spreading emollient. It is a clear, mildly yellow, medium polar oil with a slightly fatty odor. Due to its high spreading value, the product is suited for use in cosmetic and pharmaceutical skin care preparations, such as low fatting emulsions and skin oils.
Polysorbate 60:
A thickening agent.
Glycerin:
Glycerine is a humectant. It binds moisture to the skin through its ability to absorb water from the air.
Squalane—emollient oil (olive oil):
Squalane is touted as nothing short of a miracle against dry and depleted skin. Squalane occurs naturally in human skin as sebum, acting as a powerful anti-oxidant that naturalizes aggressive fat-soluble, free-radical agents. It provides skin with an effective lubricant, promotes hydrophilic activity, and serves to protect skin after sun exposure.
Polyglyceryl-6 Polyricinoleate:
A skin-conditioning agent, emolient, surfactant, and emulsifying agent.
Isononyl Isononanoate:
A skin conditioning emoilent. Occurs naturally in cocoa and lavander oil.
Magnesium Aluminum Silicate:
A naturally occruing thickener derived from purified clay.
Xanthan Gum:
Xanthan gum is used as a gelling agent, texturizer, and carrier agent in skin care products. It also stabilizes and thickens DNA CryoStem™ skincare formulas.
Glyceryl Isostearate:
A naturally derive fatty acid used as an emulsifier. Acts as a lubricant on the skin's surface.
Polyhydroxystearic Acid:
A suspending agent and emulsifier that is used to stabalize.
Alumina:
Used as a thickening agent and absorbent.
Tocopheryl Acetate (D-Alpha):
Also known as vitamin E, it is a major antioxidant and the primary defense against lipid peroxidation. Vitamin E is particularly important in protecting the body's cells from free radical and oxidative damage.
Glycine Soja (Soybean) Oil:
A vitamin-rich emollient that absorbs well into the skin. It has a nourishing, softening, and moisturizing effect on skin.
Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice Powder:
Aloe aids in increasing the recovery of cell damage (inflammation) after excessive sun exposure. It sooths and moisturizes skin.
Simethicone:
Simethicone is an anti-foaming agent.
Fructooligosaccharides (D-beta):
This comes from a mixed vegetable source. It is a short chain carbohydrate molecule that aids in promoting healthy, chemical stability, and protection from harmful bacteria both in formulas and on the surface of skin.
Allantoin:
This soothing compound can help stimulate healthy, new tissue growth and is obtained primarily from the leaves and roots of the comfrey plant.
Potassium Sorbate:
Potassium sorbate is a very mild and natural preservative that is used as a paraben alternative.
Trisodium Ethylenediamine Disuccinate:
A chelating agent.
Citric Acid:
An organic acid that helps balance the pH of skin care products.
Populus Temuloides (Aspen) Bark Extract:
An extract of the bark of the aspen. Aspen bark extract is a natural alternative to preservatives.
Leuconostoc/Radish Root Ferment Filtrate:
Radish root ferment filtrate acts as an antimicrobial.
Dicaprylyl Esther:
Dicaprylyl esther is a skin conditioning agent derived from caprylic acid, a fatty acid found in coconut and palm kernal oils.
1,2 Hexanediol:
A highly effective and mild coupling agent and humectant.
Caprylyl Glycol:
An alcohol derived from caprylic acid -- a natural fatty acid found in oils. It is an effective moisturizer and conditioner.
Gluconolactone:
Gluconolactone is composed of multiple water-attracting hydroxyl groups, which hydrate the skin, resulting in enhanced degrees of moisturization. According to a study featured in Dermatologic Surgery Journal, gluconolactone is a polyhydroxy acid (PHA) that is capable of chelating metals and may also function by scavenging free radicals, thereby protecting skin from some of the damaging effects of UV radiation. Gluconolactone provided up to 50% protection against UV radiation and UV radiation induced elastin promoter activation. Contrary to some scientific fears, it does not significantly increase sunburn cells in human skin.
Lonicera Caprifolium (Honeysuckle) Flower Extract:
Honeysuckle flower extract is used for its anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial and calming properties.
Lonicera Japonica (Honeysuckle) Flower Extract:
Used for its anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial and calming properties and as a natural preservative booster
Tropolone:
Tropolone is an anti-microbial.
