What Bioderma Says
Product Description:

Its soothing active ingredients, including allantoin and a high concentration of enoxolone, quickly relieve reactive signs such as redness and overheating. The D.A.F. (Dermatological Advanced Formulation) patented natural complex makes the skin less reactive. Beeswax and Xylitol, moisturising agents found in Sensibio Forte, combat the skin dehydration that often accompanies irritation and thus lastingly restore skin comfort. Quickly relieves, Intensely soothes and moisturises, Lastingly restores skin comfort, Very good tolerance. Non-comedogenic. Unfragranced. Suitable for sensitive skin prone to redness.

Ingredients Overview
Ingredients List
Key Ingredients
allantoin,enoxolone,beeswax,xylitol
Ingredients Details
Allantoin
Common Name(s): 5-ureidohydantoin,glyoxyldiureide,aluminum dihydroxy allantoinate
CAS Number: 97-59-6
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Soothes irritation, accelerates wound healing, promotes skin cell renewal, and provides mild keratolytic exfoliation.
Why It's Used: Gold standard multi-function soothing active โ one of the most widely used cosmetic ingredients across all product types for its exceptional tolerability and clinically proven multi-action skin conditioning.
How It Works: Promotes keratinocyte proliferation and fibroblast migration for wound healing. mild keratolytic activity by disrupting corneocyte binding. anti-irritant via direct protein binding and anti-inflammatory cytokine reduction. humectant activity via hydroxyl groups.
Typically Found In: Post-procedure products,sensitive skin formulas,wound care,anti-acne treatments,baby products
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Active ingredient โ soothing / anti-inflammatory
Secondary Functions: Wound healing,keratolytic,anti-irritant
Application Areas:
Facial Skincare
Body Care
Hair Care
Beard Care
Color Cosmetics (Makeup)
Dietary/Oral Supplements
Typical Concentration Range: 0.1%โ2%
SOURCING & ETHICS
Vegan Status: Yes โ synthetic or comfrey-derived
Halal Status: Yes
Source Notes: Plant-derived extract or synthetic.
SKIN COMPATIBILITY
Irritancy Rating: 1/5 โ very low
Comedogenicity Rating: 0/5 โ non-comedogenic
Sensitivity Concerns: Exceptionally well-tolerated; suitable for all skin types including baby and compromised skin.
Safe for Sensitive Skin: Yes โ particularly recommended for sensitive skin
SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY
Safety Profile: Excellent safety profile. ewg score: 1.
Works Well With: Ceramides,panthenol,allantoin,hyaluronic acid,centella asiatica
Avoid Combining With: No significant incompatibilities
SCIENTIFIC NOTE
Allantoin's keratinocyte proliferation stimulation occurs via receptor-mediated signaling (possibly machr activation) rather than non-specific irritation-driven proliferation, making it a true wound-healing stimulant rather than a pro-inflammatory proliferative signal.

Beeswax
Common Name(s): Cera alba (white),cera flava (yellow),apis mellifera wax
CAS Number: 8012-89-3
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Provides natural wax structure and emolliency for cosmetic texture and lip balm applications.
Why It's Used: The original cosmetic wax โ provides natural, hard-texture structure for lip balms, sticks, and creams with emollient skin conditioning.
How It Works: Complex mixture of esters (wax esters), hydrocarbons (hentriacontane), and fatty acids provides semi-crystalline structure. melting point 62-65ยฐc enables stable solid products. emulsifying capacity from free cerotic acid content.
Typically Found In: Lip balms,cosmetic sticks,creams,natural cosmetics
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Functional ingredient โ natural wax
Secondary Functions: Natural wax structure,occlusive conditioning
Application Areas:
Facial Skincare
Body Care
Hair Care
Beard Care
Color Cosmetics (Makeup)
Dietary/Oral Supplements
Typical Concentration Range: 2%โ30%
SOURCING & ETHICS
Vegan Status: No โ honeybee-derived
Halal Status: Conditional โ animal-derived; verify halal certification
Source Notes: Plant-derived, synthetic or animal-derived. verify source.
SKIN COMPATIBILITY
Irritancy Rating: 1/5 โ very low
Comedogenicity Rating: 1/5 โ low; formulation-dependent
Sensitivity Concerns: Non-irritating.
Safe for Sensitive Skin: Yes
SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY
Safety Profile: Excellent safety profile. ewg score: 1.
Works Well With: Humectants,ceramides,actives as carrier
Avoid Combining With: No significant incompatibilities
SCIENTIFIC NOTE
Beeswax's multi-component wax ester composition (myricyl palmitate as primary component) provides a unique crystalline structure that gives lip balms and cosmetic sticks their characteristic 'dragรฉe' glide โ different from synthetic wax esters that lack this crystalline lattice diversity.

Xylitol
Common Name(s): Xylit,birch sugar,xylite
CAS Number: 87-99-0
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Provides anticaries activity by starving cariogenic bacteria alongside humectant moisture retention.
Why It's Used: The anticaries sweetener โ xylitol's non-fermentability by s. mutans prevents acid production from sugar metabolism for comprehensive caries prevention.
How It Works: S. mutans transports xylitol into cell via glucose transporter. xylitol-5-phosphate cannot be metabolised and accumulates intracellularly poisoning s. mutans. non-fermentability prevents acid production. stimulates saliva flow for natural remineralisation.
Typically Found In: Toothpaste,mouthwash,sugar-free gum,oral care
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Active ingredient โ dental anticaries sugar alcohol
Secondary Functions: Tewl reduction,skin plumping
Application Areas:
Facial Skincare
Body Care
Hair Care
Beard Care
Color Cosmetics (Makeup)
Dietary/Oral Supplements
Typical Concentration Range: 5%โ30%
SOURCING & ETHICS
Vegan Status: Yes โ from birch or corn cob
Halal Status: Yes
Source Notes: Synthetic or naturally derived. excellent aqueous solubility.
SKIN COMPATIBILITY
Irritancy Rating: 1/5 โ very low
Comedogenicity Rating: 0/5 โ non-comedogenic
Sensitivity Concerns: Non-irritating; suitable for all skin types.
Safe for Sensitive Skin: Yes
SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY
Safety Profile: Highly toxic to dogs โ xylitol causes hypoglycemia. safe for humans at typical doses.
Works Well With: Ceramides,emollients,occlusives,glycerin,hyaluronic acid
Avoid Combining With: No significant incompatibilities
SCIENTIFIC NOTE
Xylitol's toxicity to s. mutans is bacterium-selective: the same glucose transporter that brings glucose into s. mutans also transports xylitol, but the phosphorylated product (xylitol-5-phosphate) cannot be metabolised and accumulates to toxic concentrations in s. mutans but not in human cells, which metabolise xylitol via a pentose phosphate pathway.
