Ingredients explained

Water

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

C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate

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

Titanium Dioxide

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

Butylene Glycol

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

Dipropylene Glycol

Solvent for essential oils; better humectancy than PEG

Caprylyl Methicone

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

Butyloctyl Salicylate

Oil-soluble exfoliating emollient; avoid for aspirin-sensitive users and high-concentration leave-on products

1,2-Hexanediol

Polyol solvent and preservative booster at 1–5%; light feel, can replace some traditional preservatives

Silica

Silica powder at 1–10%; absorbs oil, thickens, provides matte finish, for oil-control products

Aluminum Stearate

Aluminum stearate used as anticaking, emulsion stabilizer, and viscosity controller; restricted to IV/150 uses, avoid direct contact with acids.

Cetyl Ethylhexanoate

Synthetic oil providing slip; large molecule, low penetration, non-comedogenic, suitable for dry or rough skin.

Polyhydroxystearic Acid

Emulsifier and stabilizer at 1–3%; non-ionic, prone to hydrolysis.

Titanium Dioxide

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

Polymethylsilsesquioxane

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

Pentylene Glycol

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

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

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

Alumina

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

Propanediol

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

Benzotriazolyl Dodecyl P-Cresol

UV absorber with good stability; risk of contact dermatitis, control concentration.

Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltaurate/VP Copolymer

Cationic polymer providing suspension, thickening, and conditioning; often paired with anionic thickening systems, low usage, imparts slip.

Fragrance

Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components

Saccharide Hydrolysate

Saccharide hydrolysate, strong humectant with hygroscopic properties; suitable for various dosage forms.

Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose Stearoxy Ether

Cellulose derivative for thickening and emulsion stabilization; cold or hot solubility depends on process, confirm dissolution method.

Octyldodecanol

Light emollient/emulsifier at 1-5%; low comedogenic, non-greasy feel, broadly compatible, sensitive-skin friendly.

Glyceryl Caprylate

Mild emulsifier/deodorant at 0.5-2%; polyol ester, high humectancy, low irritancy, check cationic surfactant compatibility.

Polyacrylate Crosspolymer-6

Water-soluble thickener; requires neutralizer, performs best at pH 5–7

Stearic Acid

Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel

Ethylhexylglycerin

Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel

Centella Asiatica Extract

Centella asiatica extract for soothing/repair; low irritation, common in sensitive skin products.

Salvia Hispanica Seed Extract

Plant extract with mucilage and saponins; acts as skin emollient and conditioning agent.

Curcuma Longa Root Extract

Turmeric root extract, contains curcumin, colorant/antioxidant; high doses may sensitize.

Portulaca Oleracea Extract

Achyronica extract with anti-inflammatory properties; monitor for heavy metals and pesticides, low-risk at typical doses

Houttuynia Cordata Extract

Houttuynia cordata extract for anti-inflammatory and soothing effects; contains volatile oils, patch test recommended for sensitive skin.

Echium Plantagineum Seed Oil

Linoleic-rich seed oil; high oxidation risk, requires antioxidants and light protection to maintain stability

T-Butyl Alcohol

Fast-evaporating solvent; sharp odor and potential irritation at high levels, limit usage

Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil

Sunflower seed oil for emollient/occlusive; high linoleic acid, low comedogenicity.

Cardiospermum Halicacabum Flower/Leaf/Vine Extract

Plant-derived skin-conditioning extract; used at low levels, stability must be verified.

Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil Unsaponifiables

Sunflower oil unsaponifiables; squalene, tocopherol. Lightweight antioxidant, sensitive to oxidation, store light-protected and N2 flushed.

Tocopherol

Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light
