Ingredients explained
- Dimethyl Ether
- Dimethyl Ether, propellant and solvent; volatile, used in sprays, note storage safety and regulations
- Alcohol Denat
- Denatured ethanol; solvent, penetration enhancer, and quick-dry agent; high % may compromise barrier in dry skin.
- Tapioca Starch
- Tapioca starch; powder thickener/oil absorbent; inert, mild comed risk at high conc
- Acrylates/Octylacrylamide Copolymer
- Film former for fixation and moisture retention; use in aqueous phase, control solid content
- Juniperus Virginiana Oil
- Virginia juniper oil for fragrance/tonic; contains terpenes, irritant, control concentration.
- Pogostemon Cablin Oil
- Patchouli oil for fragrance; contains patchoulol, potential irritant/allergen, use cautiously.
- Amp-Isostearoyl Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein
- Hydrolyzed wheat protein derivative for cleansing, emulsifying, and conditioning; potential allergen risk.
- Water
- Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
- Phenyl Trimethicone
- Aromatic modified silicone for high gloss and occlusion; inert, non-volatile, may leave surface residue
- Magnesium Stearate
- Anti-caking agent for solids; restricted in injections, control dosage in topicals.
- PEG/PPG-18/18 Dimethicone
- PEG/PPG siloxane; emulsifier/thickener; low irrit, watch PEG total conc limits
- Triethyl Citrate
- Solvent/plasticizer at 1–10%; provides fresh feel, slight citrus scent
- Polymethylsilsesquioxane
- Silicone polymer for emolliency, matte effect, and suspension; used in foundations or powder suspensions, typical usage 1-5%, smooth skin feel.
- Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate
- UVA absorber used with other filters; poor water stability and photolability, requires light stabilizers, max concentration typically 10%.
- Aminomethyl Propanol
- pH buffer at 0.1–1%; irritating at high levels, avoid direct mixing with strong acids/bases
- BHT
- Lipophilic antioxidant at 0.01-0.05%; ineffective with acidic systems, label-sensitive, check regulatory limits as preservative alternative.
- Fragrance
- Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components
- Benzyl Benzoate
- Chelating agent for stability; restricted substance, not permitted as single component or in mixtures at ≥0.1%.
- Hydroxycitronellal
- Hydroxycitronellal, sensitizing fragrance, EU limit <0.1%; avoid use as aerosol propellant.
- Benzyl Salicylate
- UV absorber/light stabilizer, restricted in EU; potential sensitizer, risk assessment needed.
- Linalool
- Natural fragrance component at ≤0.05%; one of EU 26 allergens, caution for sensitive skin
