Glossary of Ingredients

Every ingredient in our preparations is here, listed alphabetically by the name you will see on the label. Each entry explains what the ingredient is, what it does, and which Regentiv products contain it.

Ingredients on a label are listed in order of quantity, down to 1%. Below that they can appear in any order, so an ingredient near the end of a list can still play an important part.

Every Regentiv formula is unique. It is the combination and balance of ingredients that makes each preparation work, rather than any single ingredient on its own.

Some names are individual scent components, found in our fragrances and in natural essential oils. They are named on our labels so that anyone with a known sensitivity can check before use.
