Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount. 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). Glycerin (or glycerol) is a compound naturally found in your skin. It's a powerhouse humectant that pulls water into the stratum corneum. Topically, glycerin does several things at once: Your skin makes glycerin on its own (mostly from sebaceous oil breakdown) and shuttles it to your outermost layer of skin, or your epidermis, via aquaporin-3. Aquaporin-3 is a transporter that is essential for normal skin hydration, elasticity, and repair. Interestingly, mice lacking in AQP3 have dry and less elastic skin that can be fully corrected with glycerin. This ingredient is non-irritating, plays well with almost every ingredient, and works across all skin types. Typical use is anywhere between 3-10% but can go up to 79% in some leave-on products. Just know very high concentrations (>40%) can feel tacky in low humidity. Glycerin is the name for this ingredient in American English. British English uses Glycerol/Glycerine. Magnesium chloride is a mineral salt made from magnesium and chloride. It is mainly used to control product stability and texture in cosmetics. This ingredient can also play a role in soothing the skin and supporting normal skin function. Magnesium chloride is water-soluble, generally well tolerated, and does not act as a strong “active” ingredient on its own. This ingredient is a synthetic lipopeptide that is often paired with its sibling, Palmitoyl Dipeptide-5 Diaminohydroxybutyrate, in a trade blend called Syn-Tacks. It's main job is to target the dermal-epidermal junction. This junction starts to weaken around age 30 and its functino depends heavily on proteins to keep skin intact, firm, and resilient. This ingredient works by stimulating all of these proteins simultaneously. Research on related peptide complexes has shown that topical application significantly increased dermal collagen expression with significant improvement in skin wrinkles observed after just 2 weeks. Clinical data suggests using 1-3% concentration for visible results and most blends use this amount anyway. Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5 is a synthetic signal lipopeptide. This just means it is a three amino acid chain bolted onto a palmitic acid tail so it can slip through the skin's lipid barrier. This peptide has a "build more, lose less" approach. It's designed to mimic the collagen-stimulating activity in your skin by copying a snippet of one of your skin's own matrix proteins. This nudges fibroblasts into making more collagen while inhibiting the enzyme that breaks down skin protein.
