Ingredients explained

Water/Aqua/Eau

Primary aqueous solvent and carrier; no specific incompatibilities, focus on microbial stability.

Cyclopentasiloxane

Cyclopentasiloxane for emollient/solvent; volatile silicone, smooth feel, check VOC regulations.

Dimethicone

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

Polysilicone-11

Not decoded yet

PEG-10 Dimethicone

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

Mica

Mineral colorant for pearlescence; heavy metal screening required

Triethoxycaprylylsilane

Silane coupling agent at 0.1-0.5%; enhances inorganic filler adhesion, trace use, low toxicity, avoid direct contact with aqueous systems.

Glycerin

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

Isododecane

Synthetic hydrocarbon solvent providing dry, silky skin feel; high volatility, non-comedogenic, common in sunscreens and foundations, usage 5-30%.

Isobutyl Methacrylate/Bis-Hydroxypropyl Dimethicone Acrylate Copolymer

Not decoded yet

Polymethylsilsesquioxane

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

Phenoxyethanol

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

Methicone

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

Sodium Chloride

Salt for gel viscosity control; used as precipitant in soaps

Lycium Chinense Fruit Extract

Goji berry extract rich in antioxidants; used for antioxidant and skin protection benefits.

Vaccinium Angustifolium Fruit Extract

Bilberry fruit extract with polyphenols for soothing and skin protection, low concentration

Vaccinium Macrocarpon Fruit Extract

Tannin-rich botanical extract as astringent; typically <1%, potential drying or sensitization, avoid high stacking.

Pisum Sativum Extract

Pea extract, protein/antioxidant; skin protecting/conditioning, water-soluble, watch stability in acidic/enzymatic systems.

Bambusa Vulgaris Leaf/Stem Extract

Water-soluble botanical extract acting as humectant for oral or facial care; evaluate for potential natural allergens in the extract.

Arnica Montana Flower Extract

Arnica extract; plant soothing/perfume alternative; low conc, potential sensitizer, patch test advised

Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract

Green tea extract for antioxidant/astringent; contains caffeine, possible irritation in sensitive skin.

Spirulina Maxima Extract

Spirulina extract for smoothing and conditioning; verify stability with fragrances and UV light.

Arabidopsis Thaliana Extract

Arabidopsis thaliana extract, typically used as a plant-derived antioxidant or actives; research-grade ingredient; confirm stability in final formulation

Orchis Mascula Flower Extract

Orchis flower extract for soothing; polysaccharide-based, low irritancy, suitable for mild formulas

Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Extract

Not decoded yet

Yeast Extract

Yeast extract for skin care and protection; common, low allergy risk

Tocopheryl Acetate

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

Panthenol

Panthenol (vitamin B5) at 1–5%; moisturizing and reparative, supports barrier recovery

Retinyl Palmitate

Vitamin A ester for skin conditioning; light-sensitive, requires protection, avoid in pregnancy.

Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate

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

Lecithin

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

Sodium Carrageenan

Seaweed-derived thickener and stabilizer, 0.5-1.5% adjusts viscosity; sensitive to ions, test compatibility with cationic surfactants.

Sodium Hyaluronate

Potent humectant at 0.1–2%; different MW for penetration depth, high levels may draw moisture

Glucosamine Hcl

Glucosamine hydrochloride for anti-static and hair conditioning; highly water-soluble, minimal skin irritation risk.

Magnesium Pca

Magnesium PCA; chelator and humectant with synergistic Mg/PCA action; low irritation, water-soluble.

Copper Pca

Copper PCA chelating agent and humectant; added in trace amounts (0.01-0.1%) to stabilize formulation and supply copper ions.

Zinc Pca

Zinc salt for sebum control and antimicrobial; often paired with PCA sodium, high levels may cause sensitization

Sorbic Acid

Preservative effective at low pH, often combined with sorbate salts; check regulatory limits

Ergothioneine

Ergothioneine, potent antioxidant; 0.01–0.1%, water-soluble, synergizes with Vit C/E.

Potassium Sorbate

Preservative effective below pH 6; combinable with sodium benzoate

Sodium Benzoate

Preservative booster, effective below pH 4.5; combinable with sorbates

Disteardimonium Hectorite

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

Titanium Dioxide Ci 77891

Not decoded yet

Iron Oxide Ci 77492

Yellow iron oxide, inorganic pigment; chemically stable, inactive, extremely low allergen risk.
