Those suffixes are just part of the language of chemistry, helping scientists identify the source from which the ingredient is derived. For instance, rice ferment filtrate is just filtered rice water, and citronellyl methylcrotonate is just a derivative of lemongrass essential oil (citron=lemon). The difference between \u201cate\u201d and \u201cite\u201d? Nothing more sinister than the ingredient\u2019s oxygen content.<\/p>\n<p>Still skeptical?
