Ingredients explained

Water

Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth

Diisopropyl Sebacate

Low-viscosity, high-flash-point ester; excellent spreadability, non-greasy feel

Caprylyl Methicone

Volatile silicone, fresh feel, does not absorb oil, used in foundations and cushions.

DPG

Diethylenglycol butyl ether; humectant and solvent; potential allergen, test on sensitive skin.

BG

Butylene glycol; humectant and solvent. Low irritancy, common in water-in-oil and oil-in-water formulas.

Glycerin

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

Triethylhexanoin

Light ester for non-greasy feel and fragrance; low allergenicity, high levels can act as solvent

Zinc Oxide

Physical UV filter, 30% max in EU; oily at high levels, pair with oils for feel.

Titanium Oxide

Inorganic mineral pigment and UV filter with high opacity; non-inhalation cosmetic grades are low risk

Pentaerythrityl Tetraethylhexanoate

Esther emollient for a light, silky feel; heavy at high concentrations.

Silica

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

Bisethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine

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

Bis-Butyldimethicone Polyglyceryl-3

Not decoded yet

Isostearic Acid

Fatty acid derivative as emulsifier auxiliary and emollient; insoluble, requires homogenization, may feel slightly greasy

Copolymer

Generic copolymer; function depends on structure (film, suspension); specify exact INCI for formulation.

Ethylhexyl Triazone

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

Dextrin

Polymer thickener and binder from starch fermentation; biodegradable, hygroscopic, may affect powder flow

Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate

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

PEG/PPG-14/7 Dimethyl Ether

Solvent and skin conditioning agent improving texture; contains PEG structure for solubilization

Syrup Root Extract

Plant root extract for skin conditioning; low level, requires preservation, check batch consistency

Glycyrrhizic Acid 2K

Potent anti-inflammatory glycyrrhizin derivative; for sensitive skin, needs solubilizer.

Na Acetyl Hyaluronate

Acetylated sodium hyaluronate, high-efficiency humectant; water-soluble, low MW for longer skin retention

Hydrous Silica

Absorbent powder and thickener; provides matte finish, low irritation

PEG-100 Hydrogenated Castor Oil

O/W emulsifier, PEG based, plant derived, oxidation risk.

Al Hydroxide

pH adjuster and antacid; often co-used with aluminum oxide for stability

Crosspolymer

Generic crosspolymer name; specific functions depend on monomer structure such as thickening or film formation, requires full INCI name.

Dimethicone

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

Hydrogen Dimethicone

Hydrogenated dimethicone for film-forming and slip; low volatility, rich feel for dry skin

Succinoglycan

Fermented polysaccharide with high water binding and film-forming properties; effective at low levels

Citric Acid

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

Steer Roxyhydroxypropyl Methylcellulose

Likely typo; if hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, it's a thickener; verify source for labeling

Stearic Acid

Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel

Dextrin Palmitate

Modified polysaccharide ester for emulsifying and anticaking; mild cleanser; used in solid soaps or powders.

Na Citrate

Sodium citrate buffer/chelator at 0.1–1%; stabilizes pH, enhances active solubility, non-irritating

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

Benzoic Acid

Preservative and pH adjuster at 0.1–0.5%; low water solubility, best in acidic media, irritant at high levels.
