Ingredients explained

Aqua

Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical

Butylene Glycol Dicaprylate/Dicaprate

Light diester emollient, light and non-greasy; often used as solvent; oxidizes easily, needs antioxidants.

Glycerin

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

Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate

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

Butylene Glycol

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

Methylene Bis-Benzotriazolyl Tetramethylbutylphenol

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

Dicaprylyl Carbonate

Light emollient solvent at 5–15%; mineral oil-free, refreshing feel, low sensitization.

Methyl Methacrylate Crosspolymer

MMA crosspolymer for durable water-soluble film; high doses may create occlusion

Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine

UV-B absorber, photostable; high purity and low bioaccumulation, check for impurities.

Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate

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

Cellulose

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

Dimethicone

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

Potassium Cetyl Phosphate

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

Pentylene Glycol

Polyol humectant at 1-3%; low irritancy, suitable for sensitive skin

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.

Cetyl Alcohol

Cetyl alcohol for emulsification/thickening; high concentration >10% may irritate.

Parfum

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

Alcohol

Ethanol for solubility/drying at 5-15%; high conc. is drying/irritating, avoid lip/eye, low residue, balance with humectants.

Caprylyl Glycol

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

Xanthan Gum

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

Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer

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

Ascorbyl Glucoside

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

Tromethamine

pH adjuster, alkaline; precise dosing required

Malva Sylvestris Extract

Malva sylvestris extract, soothing astringent; polysaccharide-rich, low irritancy, check solvent residues.

Sodium Hyaluronate

Potent humectant at 0.1–2%; different MW for penetration depth, high levels may draw moisture

Propylene Glycol

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

Citric Acid

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

BHT

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

Hydroxycitronellal

Hydroxycitronellal, sensitizing fragrance, EU limit <0.1%; avoid use as aerosol propellant.

Bellis Perennis Flower Extract

Daisy flower extract, traditional conditioner at low levels; botanical, potential pollen allergen risk

Citronellol

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

Tocopherol

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

Geraniol

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

Prunus Mume Fruit Extract

Fruit extract as humectant; contains natural polysaccharides, water-soluble.

Potassium Sorbate

Preservative effective below pH 6; combinable with sodium benzoate

Sodium Phosphate

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

Magnolia Obovata Bark Extract

Bark extract containing magnolol, used as low-level skin conditioner; botanical, monitor batch stability

Ci 14700

Red azo dye restricted to hair dye products only; not for leave-on or general skin care

Ci 42090 (Ext

Green inorganic pigment (Chromium Oxide Green); insoluble, for oil systems, stable but handle dust carefully.

Violet 2)

Violet extract or derivative, specific form unclear; often for soothing or scent.
