Ingredients explained

Silica

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

Boron Nitride

Flake-shaped inorganic filler for slip and bulk in powders; control particle size to minimize inhalation risk

Mica

Mineral colorant for pearlescence; heavy metal screening required

Titanium Dioxide [Nano]

Nano white pigment and UV blocker; provides physical sun protection, watch inhalation.

Talc

Inorganic mineral powder for texture and oil absorption; must be asbestos-free; fineness affects skin feel and safety, avoid inhalation.

Alumina

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

Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate

UVA absorber used with other filters; poor water stability and photolability, requires light stabilizers, max concentration typically 10%.

Nylon-12

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.

Polyethylene

Plastic polymer particles for abrasion or film; check EU ban on microplastics in rinse-off products, flush-off only

Dimethicone

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

Phenyl Trimethicone

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

Stearic Acid

Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel

Zinc Stearate

Powder slip and dispersing agent for cosmetic powders; insoluble in water/oil.

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.

Caprylyl Glycol

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

Ethylhexylglycerin

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

Lauroyl Lysine

Lauroyl lysine, amino-acid surfactant derivative, mild foaming; often blended to lower irritation.

Sodium Dehydroacetate

Sodium dehydroacetate, preservative <0.5%; restricted for eye, children, and lip use.

Chlorphenesin

Phenolic antimicrobial; strict EU limits apply, potential allergen, careful dosing required for leave-on products.

Aqua

Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical

Glycerin

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

Parfum

Fragrance for scent; may contain allergens, caution for sensitive skin, full labeling required.

Magnesium Stearate

Anti-caking agent for solids; restricted in injections, control dosage in topicals.

Ascorbyl Glucoside

Stable Vitamin C derivative, antioxidant; more stable than pure ascorbic acid, releases activity slowly in neutral/basic conditions.

Butylene Glycol

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

Tin Oxide

Inorganic mineral pigment providing opacity and suspension; requires skin safety assessment, typically used in sunscreens or powder colorants.

Tocopherol

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

Leontopodium Alpinum Extract

Edelweiss extract; flavonoid-rich skin conditioner; scarce raw material, high cost, verify batch consistency

Angelica Acutiloba Root Extract

Herbal extract with flavonoids; skin conditioning agent, low photosensitization risk, potential irritation at high concentrations.

BHT

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

Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone

Vanilla-like fragrance ingredient; one of EU 26 allergens, caution advised for sensitive skin.

Linalool

Natural fragrance component at ≤0.05%; one of EU 26 allergens, caution for sensitive skin

Citronellol

Citronellol for fragrance; EU 26 allergen, labeling required above 0.001%.

Citric Acid

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

Phenoxyethanol

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

Sodium Benzoate

Preservative booster, effective below pH 4.5; combinable with sorbates

Potassium Sorbate

Preservative effective below pH 6; combinable with sodium benzoate

Red 27 Lake

Water-soluble azo dye lake colorant; monitor heavy metals and sensitization potential.

Red 28 Lake)

Red water-soluble lake; Azorubine, aluminum salt, light-sensitive, poor long-term stability.

Ci 77007

Mica-based colorant, restricted use; mineral origin, check heavy metal impurities compliance

Ci 77163

Titanium dioxide; physical UV filter and white pigment; not absorbed; potential for rare sensitivity, patch test.

Ci 77288

Iron Oxide Red colorant, EU restricted; ensure uniform dispersion, avoid metal ion cross-contamination.

Ci 77289

Synthetic color lake, green pigment; EU Restriction IV/130, not for ophthalmic products, may cause photosensitivity or staining

Ci 77491

Iron oxides red; physical pigment. Coloring and photo-protective, stable and non-irritating.

Ci 77492

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

Ci 77499

Inorganic colorant manganese dioxide used in cosmetics; restricted use component subject to regulatory limits.

Ci 77510 (Ferric Ferrocyanide

Green inorganic pigment; Ferric Ferrocyanide, stable color, inert, for tinting, avoid dust inhalation.

Ferric Ammonium Ferrocyanide)

Ammonium ferric ferrocyanide; often listed as an alternative name for Iron Oxide Blue (CI 77491). Used as a colorant.
