Water

Sodium Lauryl Sulfoacetate: Surfactant - Derived from coconut and palm oils; a safe, skin-friendly surfactant (foaming agent) for both skin and hair. This mild plant derived surfactant creates a rich, luxurious lather that effectively removes surface oil, dirt and bacteria, without stripping or drying sensitive skin. Sodium Lauryl Sulfoacetate is also hydrophilic. This means it is attracted to water, which enables it to dissolve more readily in water, thus providing superior rinseablility.

Disodium Laureth Sulfosuccinate - Derived from coconut oil and lauryl alcohol; very mild cleanser and foaming agent, excellent for sensitive skin.

Disodium Cocoamphodiacetate - Surfactants are used in most forms of cleansers and many of them are considered gentle and effective for most skin types.

Sodium Methyl Cocoyl Taurate - Surfactant

Sodium Coco PG-Dimonium Chloride Phosphate - Derived from natural safflower oil containing a level of linoleic acid. Provides excellent substantivity and effective conditioning as well as mild and non-greasy emolliency.

Glycol Distearate humectant - Humectant

Butylene Glycol - Among other glycols and glycerols, this is a humectant or humidifying and delivery ingredient used in cosmetics.

Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer - A large group of ingredients that are typically found in hair-care products but are also widely used in skin-care products, particularly moisturizers. These range from PVP to acrylates, acrylamides, and copolymers. When applied they leave a pliable, cohesive, and continuous covering over the hair or skin. This film produces excellent water-binding properties and leaves a smooth feel on skin.

Camellia Oleifera Leaf Extract(green tea)- anti-oxidant & anti-irritant

Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Extract (chamomile)- soothing & anti-inflammatory

Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Extract - Powerful antioxidant and exhibits some wound healing properties. Grape seed extract contains proanthocyanidins, which are considered to be very potent antioxidants, helpful for diminishing the sun's damaging effects and lessening free-radical damage. It has also been shown to have wound-healing properties.

Glycerin: Also called glycerol - It is present in all natural lipids (fats), whether animal or vegetable. It can be manufactured by the hydrolysis of fats and by the fermentation of sugars.  It can also be synthetically manufactured.  For some time it was thought that too much glycerin in a moisturizer could pull water out of the skin instead of drawing it into the skin.  That theory now seems to be completely unfounded.  What appears to be true is that glycerin shores up the skin's natural protection by filling in the area known as the intercellular matrix and by attracting just the right amount of water to maintain the skin's homeostasis. There is also research indicating that the presence of glycerin in the intercellular layer helps other skin lipids do their jobs better

Butylene Glycol - In cosmetics propylene glycol is used in only the smallest amounts to keep products from melting in high heat or freezing when it is cold. It also helps active ingredients penetrate the skin.

Disodium EDTA - Abbreviation for ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid. It is a stabilizer used in cosmetics to prevent ingredients in a given formula from binding with trace elements (particularly minerals) that can exist in water and other ingredients to cause unwanted product changes such as texture, odor, and consistency problems. The technical term for this function is a chelating agent.

Aminomethyl Propano - Used in cosmetics at levels of 1% or below to adjust pH.l

Phenoxyethanol - Common cosmetic preservative that is considered one of the less irritating ones to use in formulations. It does not release formaldehyde.
