Ingredients explained
- Zinc Oxide
- Physical UV filter, 30% max in EU; oily at high levels, pair with oils for feel.
- Capric/Caprylic Triglyceride
- Not decoded yet
- Ceramide 3
- Ceramide 3 to restore skin barrier and moisturize; used at 0.01–1%, often blended
- Cyclohexasiloxane
- Volatile cyclic silicone evaporating without residue; ensure compliance with EU limits on cyclic polydimethylsiloxanes, use octamer
- 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
- Dimethicone Crosspolymer
- Crosslinked silicone polymer providing silkiness and viscosity control; for hair and skin; inert but hard to biodegrade.
- Dimethicone/Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer
- Crosslinked silicone thickener at 0.5-2%; silky/matte feel, non-comedogenic, partial oil phase incompatibility, use co-solvent/pre-emulsification.
- Dimethiconol
- Dimethiconol; silicone emollient providing silky feel and reducing friction; moderate comedogenicity, avoid excess.
- Iron Oxide
- Inorganic oxide pigment for color; concentration is restricted in specific mixtures.
- Methicone
- Volatile silicone offering slip and antistatic properties; inert at high purity, check cyclic isomer limits
- PEG-10 Dimethicone
- Modified silicone for silky feel and shine; PEG structure aids O/W emulsification, used in hair and skin care.
- Polyhydroxystearic Acid
- Emulsifier and stabilizer at 1–3%; non-ionic, prone to hydrolysis.
- Vinyl Dimethicone/Methicone Silsesquioxane Crosspolymer
- Rheology-modifying silicone polymer for suspension and feel; requires silicone-compatible system
