Sorbitol
Sorbitol is a type of sugar. The majority of sorbitol is made from corn syrup, but may also be obtained from leaves and berries of mountain ash, cherries, apples, peaches, prunes and pears.
Sorbital is a hydrating ingredient. It has a superior water-binding capacity and acts as a natural humectant, which attracts moisture from the air and binds it to your skin cells, slowing its evaporation. Sorbitol will help to promote healthy cell renewal by ensuring the underlying dermis remains fully hydrated, so your complexion looks firm, fresh, and vibrant as the surface cells stay plump.
The molecules found in Sorbitol are very similar to our own. This makes them easy for the skin to absorb into its deeper layers.
It has ingredient that can “feed” the probiotics that make up a person’s skin microbiome, thus helping it become balanced.
Newer research is showing that sorbitol is a useful addition to delivery systems that enhance the penetration and stability of natural antioxidants.

Mannitol
Mannitol is a natural molecule (type of sugar alcohol), which can be found in marine algae, in vegetables such as pumpkins, celery and strawberries, and in the exudate of shrubs and trees, such as the manna ash and olive tree.
Mannitol is known to act as humectant and moisturizer. Therefore it increases the moisture content of the skin and keeps it soft and smooth.
Additionally, humectants increase the active ingredients’ ability to penetrate skin.
Additional important but unknown properties of Mannitol are the antioxidative properties and with this the protection from environmental stresses such as blue light or UV radiation. 1
Due to its antioxidative potential, the addition of Mannitol has a protective effect on structural components in the skin and delays the degradation caused by radicals
✓ Moisturizes Skin and keep it soft
✓ Anti-oxidant properties
Sodium Laureth Sulfate
Cleansing agent. The most common cleansing ingredient of all.
Produces a foaming/lathering effect. The Chief Bubble Officer responsible for big bubbles in cleansing products through the foam it creates is a bit airy and loose
Recognized as gentle and safe by numerous industry experts/organizations. The SLES molecule has a bigger water-soluble head part that makes it milder.
Sodium laureth sulfate, also called SLES, is made from coconut oil or palm kernel oil, both of which undergo a heavy extraction and chemical conversion process.
✓ Cleanses the Skin
✓ Mild on the Skin
✓ Produces a foaming/lathering effect.
Laureth-4
Works as a cleansing agent in skin care formulas. Laureth-4 works by lowering the surface tension between two substances, such as two liquids or a liquid and a solid. A surfactant molecule contains one hydrophilic end (attracted to water) and one lipophilic end (attracted to oil). This allows surfactants to attract and suspend oils, dirt, and other impurities that have accumulated on the skin and wash them away.
Proven track record of safety in cosmetic use.
✓ Cleanses the Skin
Glyceryl Stearate
Glyceryl Stearate is used in skin care and cosmetic products because of its great moisturizing properties. It traps moisture on the skin and hair to prevent dehydration and damage. Moreover, glyceryl stearate also binds other ingredients together in a formulation.
Glyceryl Stearate acts as a lubricant on the skin’s surface, which gives the skin a soft and smooth appearance. It also slows the loss of water from the skin by forming a barrier on the skin’s surface.
✓ Great for moisturizing the skin
Glycerin
Glycerin is great for the skin because it acts as a humectant which is a substance that allows the skin to retain moisture. It can increase skin hydration, relieve dryness, and refresh the skin’s surface.
It’s also an emollient, which means it can soften skin.
Glycerin also is a natural skin lightener since it can help to brighten the complexion and even out skin tone. This is possible because glycerin works as an exfoliator that removes dead skin cells
✓ Softens and Moisturizes the skin
✓ Natural Skin Lightener through exfoliation
