Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth

Glycerin

Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives

Propanediol

Polyol solvent at 1–5%; light feel, aids solubilization, propylene glycol alternative

Maris Aqua

Seawater solvent & humectant; mineral-rich, caution on sensitive skin

Butylene Glycol

Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel

Polymethylsilsesquioxane

Silicone polymer for emolliency, matte effect, and suspension; used in foundations or powder suspensions, typical usage 1-5%, smooth skin feel.

Dimethicone

Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin

Pentylene Glycol

Polyol humectant at 1-3%; low irritancy, suitable for sensitive skin

Porphyridium Cruentum Extract

Porphyridium cruentum extract, marine algae source, providing skin conditioning

Pyrus Cydonia Seed Extract

Rosa Damascena Flower Water

Aromatic hydrosol base; provides scent and conditioning benefits.

Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light

PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate

PEG-modified nonionic surfactant for emulsification and cleansing; contains PEG, monitor dioxane, low comedogenicity.

PEG-6

Not decoded yet

Xanthan Gum

Natural thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, pH-stable, requires full hydration

Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Cross-Polymer

Not decoded yet

Polyacrylamide

Film former and thickener for slip and feel; acrylamide monomer residue risk, strict QC required, restriction III/66

Tromethamine

pH adjuster, alkaline; precise dosing required

C13-14 Isoparaffin

Light hydrocarbon solvent providing emolliency and solubility; non-allergenic, note occlusive nature

Disodium Phosphate

Phosphate buffer for pH adjustment and preservation; water-soluble; high levels may irritate mucous membranes.

PPG-26-Buteth-26

Not decoded yet

Alcaligenes Polysaccharides

Bacterial polysaccharide; humectant and emulsion stabilizer; bio-based, low sensitization; verify batch consistency

Tetrasodium EDTA

Chelator removing metal ions to enhance antioxidant and preservative efficacy; very low usage, typically 0.05-0.1%, no direct skincare function.

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

Light occlusive and solvent at 1–10%; non-greasy feel, suitable for oily and combination skin

PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil

Solubilizer and emulsifier for oil-soluble ingredients; high concentrations may cause contact dermatitis in sensitive skin.

Biosaccharide Gum-1

Biosaccharide Gum-1, fermented colloid for hydration and soothing, low comedogenic.

Laureth-7

Mild non-ionic surfactant for emulsification and solubilization; biodegradable

Citric Acid

Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH

Caramel

Colorant for brown shades; some processes involve sulfites, check specs.

Fragrance

Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components

BHT

Lipophilic antioxidant at 0.01-0.05%; ineffective with acidic systems, label-sensitive, check regulatory limits as preservative alternative.
