Glycerin

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

Octyldodecanol

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

Sucrose Palmitate

Succrose ester for gentle emulsification/cleansing; biodegradable, low comedogenicity.

Glyceryl Stearate

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

Cetearyl Alcohol

Fatty alcohol emulsifier at 1-5%; non-ionic surfactant

Potassium Palmitoyl Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein

Cationic conditioner for hair and skin; wheat protein source, potential allergen.

Glyceryl Caprylate

Mild emulsifier/deodorant at 0.5-2%; polyol ester, high humectancy, low irritancy, check cationic surfactant compatibility.

Parfum

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

Magnesium Aluminum Silicate

Oil-absorbing powder at 5–20%; for pressed/powder makeup, high levels may feel heavy

Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil
