    This is also wrong labelling because in the US (and EU) one is not supposed to list the brand name of the emulsifier but its INCI. 
    This makes me think that the LOI is not compliant with regulations and not correct. A moisturiser made with the ingredients listed is not going to have a nice texture (stearic, NF…). They used aloe juice instead of water, and no chelators, antioxidants and preservatives. If this LOI is true, this product has a shelf life of two weeks.

    I think the developer has hidden some components in the composition, possibly silicones, acrylates, synthetic emollients. It looks very aesthetically pleasing, smooth with a very pronounced glossy sheen. Indeed, with the composition of the label will not get a product with such good rheological characteristics. it is light as a lotion, spreads very easily on the skin,  + there is some kind of occlusal component that moisturizes the skin very well.
    I looked through photo reviews from buyers of this product on Amazon. One user posted a product photo with visible signs of spoilage inside the mold bottle. I concluded that the product is really not safe.

    Well, the product isn’t really legal for selling in the US but the way our regulatory system works, you don’t need prior approval by the FDA to put something on the market. As long as the brand stays small enough it might take some time for the FDA or perhaps lawyers in California to find them and take action.  A label like this is a clear indication that the product was created by an amateur . 

    In my country regulatory system is stricter. Our cosmetic products must pass a sanitary and hygienic examination before selling. After examination, this fact is documented for each products.

    Thanks for your сomments.
    The strangest thing is that the shelf life and date of manufacture are not indicated on the packaging of this product. In our country, such a product would not be allowed for sale. it is strange that such things are permissible in the USA.
