Ingredients explained

Aqua

Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical

Ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate

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

Methylene bis-benzotriazolyl tetramethylbutylphenol

UV stabilizer (UV-326/328) preventing photo-degradation of formulas; has EU concentration limit, used in sunscreens.

BisEthylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine

Chemical UV filter for UVB protection; verify compatibility and stability with other UV filters in the formula.

Dibutyl adipate

Light ester, solvent and emollient, fresh feel and volatility, non-comedogenic.

Glyceryl Stearate

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

Silica

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

Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate

Novel UVB absorber at 0.2-1.5%; narrow band, requires combination, high photostability, verify regional limits, low irritation.

Isohexadecane

Lightweight mineral-oil-derived emollient and solvent; low viscosity, non-comedogenic, improves texture

Ethylhexyl Triazone

UVB absorber with good photostability; formulated with other filters, typical concentration 3-5%, check compatibility with other ingredients.

Niacinamide

Niacinamide at 2–5%; improves texture, controls oil, brightens; high levels may cause sensitivity

Polymethyl Methacrylate

PMMA for thickening, suspension, and film; micro-size powder carrier, very low irritation

Potassium cetyl phosphate

Cetyl phosphate potassium, O/W emulsifier; pH-sensitive, often requires buffering.

Tocopheryl Acetate

Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light

Phenoxyethanol

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

Decyl Glucoside

Mild alkyl glucoside, biodegradable; foam stabilizer, thickens with fatty alcohols, low allergenicity.

Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein/PVP Crosspolymer

Film former and hair conditioner complex for styling and protection; wheat protein may trigger allergies.

Glycerin

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

Acrylates/C10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer

Crosspolymer for thickening/film; needs neutralization to pH 7-8 to hydrate, check ion strength.

Disodium EDTA

Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy

Ethylhexylglycerin

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

Xanthan Gum

Natural thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, pH-stable, requires full hydration

Potassium Sorbate

Preservative effective below pH 6; combinable with sodium benzoate

Propylene Glycol

Polyol humectant at 3-10%; hygroscopic, slight tackiness, mild irritation at high conc., verify preservative efficacy, no allergen.

Triethanolamine

Triethanolamine for buffering; restricted, limit concentration to avoid high pH and irritation

Tetrapeptide
