Ingredients explained
- Disiloxane
- Low-viscosity silicone for defoaming and slip; non-comedogenic, volatile, for light formulas.
- Water/Aqua/Eau
- Primary aqueous solvent and carrier; no specific incompatibilities, focus on microbial stability.
- Alcohol
- Ethanol for solubility/drying at 5-15%; high conc. is drying/irritating, avoid lip/eye, low residue, balance with humectants.
- Cyclopentasiloxane
- Cyclopentasiloxane for emollient/solvent; volatile silicone, smooth feel, check VOC regulations.
- C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate
- C12-15 alkyl benzoate; emollient, emulsifier, and antistatic; aids stability and smoothness, moderate low comedogenicity.
- Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate
- Novel UVB absorber at 0.2-1.5%; narrow band, requires combination, high photostability, verify regional limits, low irritation.
- Cetyl PEG/PPG-10/1 Dimethicone
- Silicone surfactant, smooth and mild; regulates rheology and adds antistatic benefits
- Butylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel
- Dicaprylyl Carbonate
- Light emollient solvent at 5–15%; mineral oil-free, refreshing feel, low sensitization.
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Stearic Acid
- Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel
- Sodium Chloride
- Salt for gel viscosity control; used as precipitant in soaps
- Aluminum Hydroxide
- Aluminum hydroxide for emollient/thickening; opacifier, used in antiperspirants, particulate risk.
- Polyhydroxystearic Acid
- Emulsifier and stabilizer at 1–3%; non-ionic, prone to hydrolysis.
- Aluminum Stearate
- Aluminum stearate used as anticaking, emulsion stabilizer, and viscosity controller; restricted to IV/150 uses, avoid direct contact with acids.
- Dipropylene Glycol
- Solvent for essential oils; better humectancy than PEG
- Disodium EDTA
- Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy
- Jasminum Officinale Oil
- Jasmine oil containing potent allergens (e.g., jasmine lactone); EU 26 allergen requiring mandatory labeling; high sensitization risk.
- Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract
- Aloe vera leaf extract for soothing and humectant; monitor polysaccharide level and endotoxins
- Portulaca Oleracea Extract
- Achyronica extract with anti-inflammatory properties; monitor for heavy metals and pesticides, low-risk at typical doses
- Anthemis Nobilis Flower Extract
- Chamomile extract used for soothing; check for potential sensitizing allergens.
- Bambusa Vulgaris Extract
- Bamboo extract for soothing and conditioning; polyphenol-rich, limit concentration to minimize irritation.
- Tocopherol
- Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light
