Ingredients explained

Aqua/Water/Eau

Water as solvent/base; main ingredient, microbial control needed, paired with preservatives.

Synthetic Beeswax

Synthetic wax for binding/emulsion stability; replaces natural wax, lower allergenic risk

Paraffin

Paraffin wax for occlusion/viscosity control; inert/safe, may affect breathability

Acacia Senegal Gum

Natural film-former and fragrance agent; used for viscosity or film, check purity for allergens

Butylene Glycol

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

Glyceryl Stearate

Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification

Stearic Acid

Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel

Palmitic Acid

Palmitic acid for emulsification/emollient; solid fat, high melting point, occlusive.

Glycerin

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

Vp/Eicosene Copolymer

Water-soluble film former and thickener; no known irritancy or comedogenic issues.

VP/Hexadecene Copolymer

Film-former for hair fixation; often needs co-solvents or cationic system.

Copernicia Cerifera Cera/Copernicia Cerifera Wax/Cire De Carnauba

Botanical wax used for hardness and gloss

Aminomethyl Propanediol

Chelator and buffer; ammonia-like odor usually requires fragrance to mask it.

Oryza Sativa Bran Wax

Rice bran wax for conditioning and film formation; hydrophobic, low comedogenicity.

Panthenol

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

Acacia Farnesiana Flower Wax

Natural wax for thickening and structure, provides shine and body, used in lipsticks and eyeshadows.

Dimethicone

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

Phenethyl Alcohol

Alcohol with preservative and fragrance properties; 0.5-1%, floral scent, can replace some preservatives

Octyldodecanol

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

Ethylhexylglycerin

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

Sphinganine

Not decoded yet

Hydroxyethylcellulose

Water-soluble cellulose ether for thickening and suspension stabilization; sensitive to ions, electrolytes reduce viscosity, use at pH 7-8.

Cellulose

Plant-derived thickener at 0.1–1%; requires full hydration, poor cationic compatibility

PVP

Polyvinylpyrrolidone for film forming and thickening; used in styling and adhesion, occasional eye irritation reported.

Phenoxyethanol

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

Disodium Phosphate

Phosphate buffer for pH adjustment and preservation; water-soluble; high levels may irritate mucous membranes.

Polysorbate 60

Non-ionic emulsifier and solubilizer for O/W or W/O stability; may cause mild stinging on sensitive skin, typically 1-5%.

Sodium Phosphate

Phosphate buffer and anti-seborrheic; pH regulator, aids sebum control, high levels are irritating

Biotinoyl Tripeptide-1

Not decoded yet

Mica

Mineral colorant for pearlescence; heavy metal screening required

Tin Oxide

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

Silica

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

Calcium Aluminum Borosilicate

Synthetic powder filler for smooth feel and coverage; inert.

Calcium Sodium Borosilicate

Fluorphlogopite; plate-like filler and thickener. For powders and creams, improves texture and coverage.

Synthetic Fluorphlogopite

Mica filler at 1-10%; luster/thickening, inert, verify mineral purity, no public comedogenic data.

Ci 77891/Titanium Dioxide

Inorganic physical sunscreen and white colorant; large particles and inert; may look chalky at high levels.

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/Iron Oxides

Iron oxide black, inorganic pigment for color or coverage; inert and safe, requires fine grinding for texture

Ci 77510/Ferric Ammonium Ferrocyanide/Ferric Ferrocyanide

Not decoded yet

Ci 77742/Manganese Violet

Synthetic purple inorganic pigment providing violet hues; as a colorant, must meet heavy metal and insoluble matter limits, generally low irritancy.

Ci 77007/Ultramarines

Inorganic blue pigment; hydration can affect solubility in acidic matrices

Ci 77266/Black 2 [Nano]

Not decoded yet

Ci 75470/Carmine

Carminic acid (cochineal), natural red dye; light/heat sensitive, needs stabilizers; potential allergen.

Ci 77289/Chromium Hydroxide Green

Not decoded yet

CI 77288/Chromium Oxide Greens

Inorganic pigment for green color, chemically stable; used as mineral pigment, consider suspension and compatibility.

Cl 42090 Blue 1 Lake/Blue 1

Not decoded yet

Ci 19140/Yellow 5 Lake

Yellow pigment aluminum lake for aqueous tinting; disperse evenly to prevent settling

Ci 77163/Bismuth Oxychloride

Bismuth oxychloride, a pearlescent powder for cosmetics and skincare gloss; high concentrations may deposit around the eyes.
