Aqua Solvents

Solvent

The water base that carries and dissolves the other ingredients in most products.

May suit
All hair and skin types.

Worth knowing
Almost always the first ingredient listed in water-based products.
Cetearyl Alcohol Conditioning agents

Fatty alcohol conditioner

A fatty alcohol that helps soften hair and improve the texture of formulations.

May suit
People looking for smoother, more manageable hair or richer, creamier product textures.

Worth knowing
Despite the name, fatty alcohols are moisturising and conditioning rather than drying. They also help stabilise and thicken many haircare formulas.
Cyclotetrasiloxane Silicones

Volatile silicone

A lightweight, fast-evaporating silicone that helps spread products smoothly and adds temporary softness.

May suit
People who prefer a lighter silicone feel or want improved spreadability without heaviness.

Worth knowing
It evaporates after application, leaving minimal residue on the hair. It is commonly used to help distribute other conditioning ingredients more evenly.
Amodimethicone Silicones

Conditioning silicone

A conditioning silicone that targets rougher areas of the hair to smooth and protect.

May suit
Damaged, frizz-prone or colour-treated hair wanting targeted smoothing.

Sodium Sulfite Preservatives

Antioxidant / stabiliser

Helps protect formulas by reducing oxidation and maintaining product stability.

May suit
