Ingredient Notes · Moss Water
Aloe Leaf Juice + Blackberry Extract meet cleansing agents and moisture-binding ingredients in Moss Water's soft mousse. Discover the cosmetic roles and botanical research behind the ingredients in your daily cleanse.
Aloe leaf juice is used in skincare for its moisturizing and skin-conditioning properties. Glycerin is a humectant: an ingredient that attracts and holds water. In Moss Water, this pairing complements the cleansing system for a soft, comfortable skin feel.
Coco-Glucoside and Cocamidopropyl Betaine are surfactants, ingredients that help water carry away oil and impurities. They also contribute to lather. This cleansing pair helps Moss Water remove excess sebum and everyday makeup buildup when you massage and rinse.
Blackberries contain naturally occurring anthocyanins and other polyphenols studied for their antioxidant activity. Moss Water features Blackberry Fruit Extract alongside Aloe Leaf Juice in its botanical blend.
Sodium PCA is the sodium salt of PCA, a compound found in skin's natural moisturizing factor. Used in cosmetics as a water-binding humectant, it complements Glycerin in Moss Water's moisture support. The formula also includes Rhamnose, Glucose and Glucuronic Acid.
Sage leaf extracts have been studied for phenolic compounds, including rosmarinic acid, and antioxidant activity. Sweet Flag Root and Burdock Root extracts are used in cosmetics as skin-conditioning ingredients. Moss Water brings these three extracts together in its leaf-and-root botanical blend.

Ingredient Guide
Aloe Leaf Juice + Blackberry Extract meet cleansing agents, humectants and ingredients that shape the formula's texture and scent. Open each entry to explore its cosmetic role or botanical research, from the lather to the finishing details.
Why it matters: Aloe leaf juice is used in skincare for moisturizing and skin-conditioning properties. It is the first ingredient listed in Moss Water, where it complements the cleansing agents and humectants for a comfortable skin feel.
How they work: Coco-Glucoside and Cocamidopropyl Betaine are surfactants. These ingredients help water carry away oil and impurities and contribute to lather. In Moss Water, they form the cleansing pair that helps remove excess sebum and makeup buildup.
Why it matters: Glycerin is a humectant, meaning it attracts and holds water. Widely used in skincare, it provides moisture support alongside Aloe Leaf Juice and Sodium PCA in this rinse-off formula.
Their cosmetic role: Xanthan Gum and Acacia Senegal Gum are polysaccharides used to thicken and stabilize cosmetic formulations. Xanthan is produced through fermentation; Acacia Senegal Gum comes from acacia trees. Here, they contribute to the cleanser's texture.
Why it is included: Propanediol is used in cosmetics as both a humectant and a solvent. It can help retain moisture and dissolve ingredients, supporting how they are incorporated into a water-based formula.
The ingredient story: Blackberries contain naturally occurring anthocyanins and other polyphenols studied for their antioxidant activity. Moss Water features Blackberry Fruit Extract alongside Aloe Leaf Juice in its botanical blend.
Why it matters: Sodium PCA is the sodium salt of PCA, a compound found in skin's natural moisturizing factor. In cosmetic formulations, it is used as a water-binding humectant. It complements Glycerin in Moss Water's moisture support.
Their cosmetic role: Sodium Levulinate and Sodium Anisate are salts of organic acids used in cosmetic formulations for antimicrobial support. They can work alongside preservatives to help protect the product itself from microbial growth.
Their cosmetic role: Lactic Acid and Citric Acid are used in cosmetics to adjust or maintain a formula's pH. Their presence in an ingredient list does not by itself establish exfoliating performance; concentration and the finished formulation determine that effect.
The ingredient story: Sweet Flag Root Extract comes from Acorus calamus. Cosmetic ingredient references list it for skin conditioning and perfuming. Moss Water includes this root extract alongside its leaf and fruit botanicals.
The ingredient story: Sage leaf extracts have been studied for phenolic compounds, including rosmarinic acid, and antioxidant activity. Sage Leaf Extract is also used in cosmetic skincare for conditioning. Moss Water includes it in its botanical blend.
The ingredient story: Rhamnose and Glucose are simple sugars; Glucuronic Acid is a sugar acid. These three ingredients appear together in Moss Water's INCI list. They are described here by their ingredient identities rather than as a separately verified active complex.
The ingredient story: Burdock Root Extract comes from Arctium lappa. It is used in cosmetics as a skin-conditioning ingredient, a role concerned with keeping skin in good condition. It joins Sweet Flag Root and Sage Leaf in Moss Water's botanical blend.
Why they matter: Sodium Benzoate and Potassium Sorbate are preservatives used in cosmetics to help inhibit microbial growth in the product. They are included in Moss Water's water-rich formula as part of its preservation system.
The scent details: Parfum identifies the fragrance composition in the INCI list. Moss Water's aroma is Sweet Grapefruit + Lemon. Limonene is listed separately as a fragrance constituent, with the supplied ingredient information identifying it as coming from natural essential oils.
