| sh-Polypeptide-121 | Bioengineered polypeptide. Listed as film former, skin-conditioning agent (miscellaneous). |
| Sodium Hyaluronate | Sodium salt of hyaluronic acid. A material skin already contains, so it reads as its own; used to pull in water and hold it. |

| Dipeptide Diaminobutyroyl Benzylamide Diacetate | Synthetic dipeptide. Listed as skin-conditioning agent (miscellaneous). |
