Ingredients explained

Octinoxate

Water-soluble UVB absorber for sunscreen; concentration limited by regulations, may irritate sensitive skin

Titanium Dioxide

Physical UV filter and colorant up to 25%; nano form requires attention

Zinc Oxide

Physical UV filter, 30% max in EU; oily at high levels, pair with oils for feel.

Water\Aqua\Eau

Solvent and diluent; the base for most aqueous formulations.

Methyl Trimethicone

Methyl trimethicone, light volatile silicone; non-comedogenic, good powder compatibility.

Phenyl Trimethicone

Aromatic modified silicone for high gloss and occlusion; inert, non-volatile, may leave surface residue

Dimethicone

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

Triethylhexanoin

Light ester for non-greasy feel and fragrance; low allergenicity, high levels can act as solvent

Butylene Glycol

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

Trimethylsiloxysilicate

Silicate powder, oil-absorbing emollient; insoluble, high levels feel powdery.

Yeast Extract\Faex\Extrait De Levure

Yeast ferment filtrate rich in amino acids and peptides; used for repair and moisture, may cause sensitivity in some.

PEG-10 Dimethicone

Modified silicone for silky feel and shine; PEG structure aids O/W emulsification, used in hair and skin care.

Lauryl PEG-9 Polydimethylsiloxyethyl Dimethicone

Silicone surfactant at 1–5%; for hair/cleansing, provides smoothness

Alumina

Alumina, inorganic abrasive/thickener; nano-grade requires inhalation risk assessment.

Citrus Grandis Peel Extract

Citrus grandis peel extract, astringent and tonic. Contains essential oils; check light sensitivity and allergens.

Betula Alba Bark Extract

Provides botanical fragrance and flavor with antioxidant potential; concentrated extracts may cause aromatic allergens.

Saccharomyces Lysate Extract

Yeast lysate humectant and conditioner; rich in amino acids and NMF, strong barrier repair

Astrocaryum Murumuru Seed Butter

Plant oil for emollience and conditioning; high lipid content, pair with emulsifiers

C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate

C12-15 alkyl benzoate; emollient, emulsifier, and antistatic; aids stability and smoothness, moderate low comedogenicity.

Glycerin

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

Sodium Myristoyl Sarcosinate

Not decoded yet

Acetyl Glucosamine

Glycosaminoglycan precursor supporting skin hydration and elasticity; highly biocompatible.

Caprylyl Methicone

Volatile silicone, fresh feel, does not absorb oil, used in foundations and cushions.

Methicone

Volatile silicone offering slip and antistatic properties; inert at high purity, check cyclic isomer limits

Polyglyceryl-6 Polyricinoleate

Emulsifier with hydrophilic properties; castor derivative, low sensitization risk.

Disteardimonium Hectorite

Inorganic ionic clay thickener at 0.25-1%; water/oil/solvent systems, rheology control, avoid strong acids, may affect active release.

Dimethicone Crosspolymer-3

Not decoded yet

Isopropyl Titanium Triisostearate

Titanium isostearate complex for UVB absorption and emulsification aid; photostable, low irritancy, low comedogenicity.

Lecithin

Phospholipid emulsifier at 1-5%; biocompatible, moisturizing/antioxidant, prone to oxidation (add TBHQ), mild for sensitive skin.

Laureth-7

Mild non-ionic surfactant for emulsification and solubilization; biodegradable

Tocopheryl Acetate

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

Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate

Water-soluble Vitamin C derivative for antioxidant and brightening; more stable than ascorbic acid

Dimethicone/PEG-10/15 Crosspolymer

Silicone/PEG crosspolymer for film forming and viscosity; low irritation; PEG debate at high conc

Dipropylene Glycol

Solvent for essential oils; better humectancy than PEG

Sodium Chloride

Salt for gel viscosity control; used as precipitant in soaps

Caprylyl Glycol

Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol

Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate

Lipophilic Vitamin C derivative, antioxidant and brightening; more stable than VC, oil-soluble, must pair with oil phase

Disodium EDTA

Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy

Phenoxyethanol

Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin

Polyaminopropyl Biguanide

Active preservative Polyaminopropyl Biguanide; effective at low levels, broad-spectrum, avoid anionic surfactants.

Titanium Dioxide

Physical UV filter and colorant up to 25%; nano form requires attention

Iron Oxides (Ci 77491

Not decoded yet

Ci 77492

Iron oxide red; stable inorganic pigment, non-toxic; ensure dispersion to prevent sedimentation.

Ci 77499)

Not decoded yet

Mica

Mineral colorant for pearlescence; heavy metal screening required

Bismuth Oxychloride

White pigment at 5–20%; for makeup coverage, may cause sensitivity in some
