Ingredients explained

Althaea Officinalis Root Extract

Marshmallow root extract rich in polysaccharides; forms a protective film for moisturizing and soothing skin conditioning.

Titanium Dioxide

Physical UV filter and colorant up to 25%; nano form requires attention

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

Light occlusive and solvent at 1–10%; non-greasy feel, suitable for oily and combination skin

Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract

Aloe vera leaf extract for soothing and humectant; monitor polysaccharide level and endotoxins

Dicaprylyl Carbonate

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

Polyglyceryl-3 Polyricinoleate

Mild emulsifier for O/W systems; 1-3%, avoid cationic surfactants

Butylene Glycol

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

Glycerin

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

Silica

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

Niacinamide

Niacinamide at 2–5%; improves texture, controls oil, brightens; high levels may cause sensitivity

Polyglyceryl-2 oleate

Polyglyceryl-2 oleate, plant-based emulsifier/thickener, 0.5–3%; amphiphilic, good for creams.

Polyhydroxystearic acid

Emulsifier and stabilizer at 1–3%; non-ionic, prone to hydrolysis.

Polyglyceryl-2 stearate

Polyglyceryl ester emulsifier; mild, non-ionic, suitable for O/W emulsions with good stability.

Octyldodecanol

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

Hexanediol

1,6-Hexanediol; efficient solvent and preservative booster. May replace traditional preservatives. Mild sting at high levels.

CI 77492

Iron oxide red; stable inorganic pigment, non-toxic; ensure dispersion to prevent sedimentation.

Jojoba ester

Lightweight emollient mimicking sebum, moisturizes without greasiness, offers antioxidant benefits

Sodium chloride

Salt for gel viscosity control; used as precipitant in soaps

Sorbitan Olivate

O/W emulsifier, HLB ~15, requires ionic co-surfactant, potential sensitizer.

Stearalkonium hectorite

Inorganic clay gellant with silky feel; must disperse well, high local dose can irritate.

Propylene carbonate

Inert solvent and viscosity modifier; often used as penetration enhancer, mild at low levels

Mica

Mineral colorant for pearlescence; heavy metal screening required

Propanediol

Polyol solvent at 1–5%; light feel, aids solubilization, propylene glycol alternative

Ethylhexylglycerin

Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel

Verbena Officinalis Extract

Rosmarinus Officinalis Leaf Extract

Plant extract containing rosmarinic acid etc., with antioxidant and antimicrobial properties; may contain allergenic fragrances, patch test for sensitive skin, typical concentration <1%.

Chamomilla Recutita Flower Extract

Plant extract, soothing properties; contains natural allergens, high levels may irritate.

CI 77491

Iron oxides red; physical pigment. Coloring and photo-protective, stable and non-irritating.

Limnanthes Alba Seed Oil

Lightweight natural oil with mineral oil-like feel; oxidizes easily, add antioxidants and control dose.

Argania spinosa Kernel Oil

Jojoba oil rich in unsaturated fats; good penetration, non-comedogenic, prone to oxidation requiring antioxidants

Lavandula Angustifolia Oil

Fragrance essential oil, 0.1–1%; contains allergens, patch test required.

Lavandula Hybrida Oil

Essential oil for emollience and fragrance; contains allergens like linalool, requires EU 26 labeling
