Ingredients explained

Ricinus Communis Seed Oil

Castor oil for heavy moisturization and film formation; high viscosity, high levels may be comedogenic, blend with other oils.

Cera Microcristallina

Mineral-derived microcrystalline wax, potent occlusive moisturizer; 1-3% significantly extends hydration, heavy texture.

Cocoglycerides

Coco-glycerides act as emulsifiers and skin conditioning agents; gentle, often used in soap-free formulations.

Octocrylene

UV-B absorber and photostabilizer; has concentration limits, consider potential coral toxicity and allergenicity for specific groups.

Dibutyl Adipate

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

Paraffin

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

Ethylhexyl Salicylate

Ethylhexyl salicylate, UVB absorber; volatile, requires combination with UVA filters for broad spectrum.

Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane

High-potency UVA filter (Parsol MXX); requires stabilizers and UVB blockers.

Copernicia Cerifera Cera

Carnauba wax, viscosity and film; high melt point, heat-stable, for creams.

Ethylhexyl Triazone

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

Octyldodecanol

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

Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate

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

Lanolin

Wool-derived lipid, excellent occlusive emollient; high sensitization rate (wool alcohols), caution for sensitive skin.

Glycol Montanate

Not decoded yet

1,2-Hexanediol

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

Parfum

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

Caprylyl Glycol

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

Shorea Robusta Resin

Katha bark resin rich in tannins used as a tonic; high phenol content may cause phototoxicity or darkening.

Shorea Stenoptera Seed Butter

Shorea stenoptera seed butter, used as emollient and skin conditioning agent; plant oil, moderate comedogenicity, oily skin should pay attention to dosage.

Tocopheryl Acetate

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

Ci 77891

Titanium dioxide inorganic pigment and UV filter; assess inhalation risk for nano-forms and EU restrictions

Bisabolol

Soothing and anti-inflammatory agent, 0.01–0.1%; low irritation, good for sensitive skin.

BHT

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

Tropolone

Natural phenolic compound used as a skin conditioner; strong antioxidant activity, often a fragrance alternative.

Triethoxycaprylylsilane

Silane coupling agent at 0.1-0.5%; enhances inorganic filler adhesion, trace use, low toxicity, avoid direct contact with aqueous systems.

Tocopherol

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

Ci 15850

Synthetic dye, red 57; restricted to hair dyeing in EU, not for topical cosmetics.
