Ingredients explained
- Caprylyl Methicone
- Volatile silicone, fresh feel, does not absorb oil, used in foundations and cushions.
- Water\Aqua\Eau
- Solvent and diluent; the base for most aqueous formulations.
- PEG-12 Dimethicone/PPG-20 Crosspolymer
- Silicone polymer for silkiness and film formation; non-comedogenic, common in lotions and sunscreens.
- Disiloxane
- Low-viscosity silicone for defoaming and slip; non-comedogenic, volatile, for light formulas.
- Polysilicone-11
- Not decoded yet
- Isodecyl Neopentanoate
- Volatile dry ester for make-up/emulsions; fast-drying, non-greasy, seal to prevent weight loss.
- Methyl Methacrylate Crosspolymer
- MMA crosspolymer for durable water-soluble film; high doses may create occlusion
- Adipic Acid/Neopentyl Glycol Crosspolymer
- Water-soluble powder; anti-caking for antiperspirants/sunscreen, highly hygroscopic
- Sodium Hyaluronate
- Potent humectant at 0.1–2%; different MW for penetration depth, high levels may draw moisture
- Ascorbyl Palmitate
- Ascorbyl palmitate, lipophilic Vit C ester, antioxidant; oxidizes, needs light/air protection.
- Lecithin
- Phospholipid emulsifier at 1-5%; biocompatible, moisturizing/antioxidant, prone to oxidation (add TBHQ), mild for sensitive skin.
- Retinol
- Highly active and unstable, needs robust antioxidant encapsulation; 0.1-1.0%, pregnancy contraindicated
- Camellia Oleifera Seed Oil
- Camellia seed oil rich in oleic acid and antioxidants for moisturizing; low allergen risk
- Ethylhexylglycerin
- Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel
- Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride
- Light occlusive and solvent at 1–10%; non-greasy feel, suitable for oily and combination skin
- Hydrogenated Lecithin
- Emulsifier from lecithin; stable, used in powder emulsions
- Potassium Phosphate
- pH adjuster for buffering systems; 0.1-1%, avoid calcium and magnesium ions
- Polysorbate 20
- Non-ionic emulsifier and cleansing surfactant; contains PEG, control microbial load.
- Laureth-12
- Laureth-12, mild emulsifier, potentially comedogenic at high concentrations
- Polysorbate 80
- Non-ionic emulsifier and solubilizer; watch for interaction with parabens
- Isohexadecane
- Lightweight mineral-oil-derived emollient and solvent; low viscosity, non-comedogenic, improves texture
- Sodium Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer
- Acrylate copolymer for film/thickening; water-soluble, compatible, monitor residual monomers.
- Phenethyl Alcohol
- Alcohol with preservative and fragrance properties; 0.5-1%, floral scent, can replace some preservatives
- Pistacia Lentiscus Gum
- Frankincense resin for film formation and fragrance; natural source, high doses may sensitize
- Pentylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant at 1-3%; low irritancy, suitable for sensitive skin
- Alcohol
- Ethanol for solubility/drying at 5-15%; high conc. is drying/irritating, avoid lip/eye, low residue, balance with humectants.
- Fragrance
- Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components
- Limonene
- Natural fragrance solvent, EU allergen; poor photostability
- Citral
- Citral; citrus fragrance component, listed EU allergen, high phototoxicity risk, strict concentration limits apply.
- Linalool
- Natural fragrance component at ≤0.05%; one of EU 26 allergens, caution for sensitive skin
- Tocopherol
- Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Mica
- Mineral colorant for pearlescence; heavy metal screening required
- Iron Oxides
- Inorganic pigment for color; particulate form, inhalation risk low in cosmetics.
- Iron Oxides
- Inorganic pigment for color; particulate form, inhalation risk low in cosmetics.
- Iron Oxides
- Inorganic pigment for color; particulate form, inhalation risk low in cosmetics.
- Bismuth Oxychloride
- White pigment at 5–20%; for makeup coverage, may cause sensitivity in some
