Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount. 1,2-Hexanediol is a synthetic liquid and another multi-functional powerhouse. It is a: Humectant, drawing moisture into the skin Emollient, helping to soften skin Solvent, dispersing and stabilizing formulas Preservative booster, enhancing the antimicrobial activity of other preservatives Butylene Glycol (or BG) is used within cosmetic products for a few different reasons: Overall, Butylene Glycol is a safe and well-rounded ingredient that works well with other ingredients. Though this ingredient works well with most skin types, some people with sensitive skin may experience a reaction such as allergic rashes, closed comedones, or itchiness. Caprylyl Glycol is a humectant, skin conditioner, emollient, and preservative booster derived from either caprylic acid or synthetically created. Typical use levels vary from 0.3-1% as a preservative booster and go up to 2% to condition skin. Because it is not a free-fatty acid, this ingredient is fungal acne safe (there's nothing for Malassezia to feed on). Ethylhexylglycerin is created from glycerin. It is a multitasker ingredient that: The CIR Expert Panel found minimal skin absorption or sensitization of any kind in a safety assessment. Though this ingredient is considered well-tolerated, a small number of cases of allergic dermatitis have been published since 2002. Just be sure to patch test if you are unsure. Industry-reported use ranges from 8% in rinse-off products and 2% in leave-on formulations. Lactobacillus/Soybean Ferment Extract is the result of fermenting soybeans with the Lactobacillus bacteria. It mainly acts as a skin conditioning agent in a formula, and the interesting part is what fermentation does to the soy. Fermenting soy: The isoflavones are the workhorses behind the common claims; lab and animal studies show they mop up free radicals, help protect skin cells from UVB damage, and nudge fibroblasts to make more collagen while slowing the enzymes that break collagen down. One controlled clinical study using an isoflavone cream reported softer wrinkles and better skin texture over time. A topical fermented soy extract also improved hydration and elasticity in an animal aging model. The big caveat is that most of this evidence comes from soy isoflavones and related fermented soy extracts rather than this exact INCI. Some of the strongest data also comes from oral studies. So it's best to think of this ingredient as a gentle, antioxidant-leaning conditioning agent rather than a proven wrinkle eraser. At this time, there's no published concentration levels for this specific ferment but it usually shows up at modest levels in real products (~1% or less). One last thing for people with soy allergies: it's always worth patch testing this ingredient despite the lowered allergy risk. This oil comes from the outer layer (bran) of rice grains. It is packed with skin-fr
