2. Safflower Oil: A natural emollient (lotion), moisturizes skin.
3. Glycerine: A water-binding agent, moisturizes skin.
4. Stearic Acid: An emulsifying agent, known for the "pearly, which ultimately has a cooling effect when applied on the skin.
5. Cetyl Alcohol: (non-drying) Helps deliver ingredients into skin and an emollient, emulsifier, thickener, which enhances texture, improves feel in cream.
6. Glyceryl Stearate: An emollient (lotion) moisturizes and lubricates as well as a binding and thickening agent.
7. Deonized Water: Filtered water to remove contaminants that interfere with creams stability and performance.
8. Borage Oil: Anti-irritant agent. Promotes healthy skin growth and is an anti-inflammatory agent.
9. Vitamin E Oil: -Prunus Dulcis A stable and reliable antioxidants and an emollient oil, providing a protective coating, and moisturizers and maintains hydration or rehydrates skin.
Vitamins are added because foods containing vitamins A, D, E, K, and some of the B complex group are necessary in diets to maintain healthy skin.
Using these vitamins in cosmetics that are applied to the skin surface implies that skin will be nourished by them (FDA).
Vitamin E appears to be useful in reducing UV light damage when applied to the skin before UV exposure. It appears to pass through the outermost layers of the skin and concentrate in the dermis.
10. Green Tree Extract: Camellia sinensis. Green tree extract is used primarily for its free radical fighting capabilities.
11. Triethanolamine: A pH skin balancer.
12. Germall II: A synergistic preservative agent, effective in inhibiting the growth of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, yeasts and molds without need of any additional preservatives.
13. Grapefruit Seed Extract: This unlikely herbal infection-fighter is synthesized from the seeds and pulp of the grapefruit. It was farmers who first used grapefruit seed extract (GSE) to inhibit the growth of mold on their equipment; later, cosmetic companies added it to their products as a preservative.
14. Geranium Essential Oil: - Pelagronium graveolens, helps restores balance between oily and dry skin. Considered useful on all skin types.

19. Methylsulfonylmethan (MSM): is a naturally occurring organic sulfur found in the tissues of all plants and animals (including humans). In fact, sulfur is the fourth most abundant mineral in the body. The proper acid/alkaline balance of the body cannot be maintained without it.
20. Aloe Vera Extract: -Aloe barbadensis Anti-irritant, soothing, skin conditioning, and moisturizing agent.
21. Elastine Extract: The major component of skin that gives it flexibility. Sun damage causes elastin in skin to deteriorate. Elastin can be derived from plant sources and is used as a good water-binding agent and moisturizing agent.
22. Vitamin C: Ascorbic acid - the other name for vitamin C, is a good antioxidant that helps to fight free-radical damage caused by cell metabolism and other outside factors and has lately become a popular ingredient in skincare and cosmetic products.
It has been demonstrated that when human fibroblasts are exposed to reactive oxygen species (free radicals), less collagen is produced. Wrinkles and skin sagging are commonly believed to occur as a result of the cross-linking of elastin and collagen.
Free radicals are thought to be responsible for this cross-linking. Excessive exposure to UV radiation can give rise to free radicals.
UV radiation penetrates deep into the skin, generating free radicals and other reactive agents which, in turn, attack and damage the lipids that make up the dermal layers beneath the surface of the skin. The body neutralizes these free radicals with vitamin C.
It is required for the synthesis of collagen, the intercellular cement which holds tissues together. It is also one of the major antioxidant nutrients. It prevents the conversion of nitrates (from tobacco smoke, smog, bacon, lunchmeats, some vegetables) into cancer-causing substances. Moreover, Vitamin C has been shown to help slow the production of hyperpigmentation ( age spots ) while providing some UV protection. .
23. Chamomile Extract: -Matricaria chamomilla An herb that has been shown to have anti-irritant and soothing properties. A wonderful skin care herb.
24. Cucumber Extract: Helps soothe skin.

28. Panthenol DL: Derived from the vitamin B-complex, moisturizes skin.
29. Allantoin: Effective anti-irritant. The soothing and healing constituent helps alleviate irritation. Hastening the healing processes of the body, helping the skin to help itself.
It has been said that allantoin can clean away necrotic tissue, speeding the growth of new healthy tissue. Since it stimulates healthy new tissue growth, healing epithelization may take place.
The FDA has only recognized it as a skin protectant.
30. Retinyl Palmitate. The technical name for (preformed) Vitamin A form. Vitamins are added because foods containing vitamins A, D, E, K, and some of the B complex group are necessary in diets to maintain healthy skin.
Using these vitamins in cosmetics that are applied to the skin surface implies that skin will be nourished by them (FDA).
31. Co Enzyme Q-10: It has two important roles: it is an essential part of the cellular respiration system located in the mitochondria, and it is an antioxidant.
CoQ10 improves both the rate and efficiency of energy production in the cells, including the skin and at the same time protects mitochondria from free radicals. CoQ10 is sometimes called a "biomarker of aging" because its level correlates so well with aging.
In most people over thirty, levels of CoQ10 in the skin is below optimum, resulting in a lesser ability to produce collagen, elastin and other important skin molecules.
CoQ10-depleted skin may also be more prone to the damage by free radicals, which are particularly abundant with exposure of the skin to the elements.
Thus, CoQ10 may boost skin repair and regeneration. Furthermore, CoQ10 is a small molecule that can relatively easily penetrate into skin cells.
32. Vanilla Fragrance (strickly as a masking agent). We took great care to minimize the impact or use of any fragrance.
