Ingredients Details
Retinal
Common Name(s): Retinoid active,rar nuclear receptor,anti-aging gold standard
CAS Number: N/a
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Stimulates collagen i and iii synthesis, accelerates epidermal renewal, inhibits mmp-1 collagenase, normalises pigmentation, and reverses photoaging signs including wrinkles, laxity, and texture.
Why It's Used: The most clinically validated anti-aging mechanism in dermatology with 40+ years of peer-reviewed evidence — retinoids are the benchmark against which all anti-aging actives are compared.
How It Works: Retinol and esters are enzymatically converted in skin: retinol → retinaldehyde (alcohol dehydrogenase) → all-trans retinoic acid (retinaldehyde dehydrogenase). retinoic acid binds rar-α/β/γ → rare promoter binding → col1a1, timp-1 upregulation; mmp-1 and il-6 downregulation through ap-1 pathway interference.
Typically Found In: Anti-aging serums,night creams
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Active ingredient – vitamin a derivative
Secondary Functions: Collagen booster,antioxidant
Application Areas:
Facial Skincare
Body Care
Hair Care
Beard Care
Color Cosmetics (Makeup)
Dietary/Oral Supplements
Typical Concentration Range: 0.025%–2% (check local limits)
SOURCING & ETHICS
Vegan Status: Yes
Halal Status: Yes
Source Notes: Synthetic or plant-derived. requires opaque, airless packaging.
SKIN COMPATIBILITY
Irritancy Rating: 2/5 – low to moderate
Comedogenicity Rating: 0/5 – non-comedogenic
Sensitivity Concerns: Introduce slowly; retinization expected at higher potencies.
Safe for Sensitive Skin: Use with caution – avoid during pregnancy
SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY
Safety Profile: Safe at cosmetic concentrations. use spf. avoid during pregnancy. ewg score: 2.
Works Well With: Niacinamide,ceramides,hyaluronic acid,spf,tocopherol
Avoid Combining With: Pregnancy; extended uv without spf; benzoyl peroxide
SCIENTIFIC NOTE
Different retinoid potency ladder: retinyl palmitate < retinol < retinaldehyde < retinyl retinoate ≈ hpr < all-trans retinoic acid. corresponding irritation follows the same order — formulators select the potency/tolerance balance for their target consumer.

Squalane
Common Name(s): Perhydrosqualene,2,6,10,15,19,23-hexamethyltetracosane
CAS Number: 0111-01-03
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Provides endogenous-skin-identical emolliency with exceptional stability and skin compatibility.
Why It's Used: The most skin-compatible emollient – chemically identical to human sebum squalene component with outstanding tolerability across all skin types.
How It Works: Fully saturated hydrocarbon with zero oxidation sites provides exceptional stability unlike squalene's 6 double bonds. integrates into stratum corneum lipid bilayers with near-perfect biocompatibility. provides antioxidant protection to formulation via radical quenching.
Typically Found In: Facial oils,serums,non-comedogenic moisturizers,luxury body care
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Functional ingredient – emollient
Secondary Functions: Maximum biocompatibility,antioxidant stabilizer,non-comedogenic
Application Areas:
Facial Skincare
Body Care
Hair Care
Beard Care
Color Cosmetics (Makeup)
Dietary/Oral Supplements
Typical Concentration Range: 1%–100%
SOURCING & ETHICS
Vegan Status: Conditional – plant-derived (sugarcane, olive) preferred; shark liver-derived being phased out
Halal Status: Yes – plant-derived
Source Notes: Sustainable plant-derived squalane from sugarcane fermentation (amyris) or olive oil fractionation is preferred over shark liver-derived. chemically identical regardless of source.
SKIN COMPATIBILITY
Irritancy Rating: 1/5 – very low
Comedogenicity Rating: 0/5 – non-comedogenic
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
Squalene constitutes approximately 12-15% of human sebum – the highest proportion of any skin lipid. topical squalane (stable, hydrogenated form) replenishes this abundant endogenous skin lipid. the complete absence of oxidizable double bonds (unlike squalene's 6 double bonds) eliminates the pro-oxidant concerns of natural squalene oxidation.
