Ingredients explained
- Aqua
- Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical
- Octocrylene
- UV-B absorber and photostabilizer; has concentration limits, consider potential coral toxicity and allergenicity for specific groups.
- Ethylhexyl Salicylate
- Ethylhexyl salicylate, UVB absorber; volatile, requires combination with UVA filters for broad spectrum.
- Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate
- Novel UVB absorber at 0.2-1.5%; narrow band, requires combination, high photostability, verify regional limits, low irritation.
- Aluminum Starch Octenylsuccinate
- Modified starch absorbent at 1–10%; for powder products, oil-absorbing without heavy feel
- Ethylhexyl Triazone
- UVB absorber with good photostability; formulated with other filters, typical concentration 3-5%, check compatibility with other ingredients.
- Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine
- UV-B absorber, photostable; high purity and low bioaccumulation, check for impurities.
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Propylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant at 3-10%; hygroscopic, slight tackiness, mild irritation at high conc., verify preservative efficacy, no allergen.
- Myristyl Myristate
- Di-C14 ester, waxy solid for thickening and conditioning; provides matte and smooth feel, low comedogenicity, good for compacts.
- Cetearyl Alcohol
- Fatty alcohol emulsifier at 1-5%; non-ionic surfactant
- Tocopheryl Acetate
- Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light
- Canola Oil
- Low-erucic acid vegetable oil as emollient; check allergen labeling if applicable.
- Dimethicone
- Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin
- Sorbitol
- Polyol humectant with strong hygroscopy; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives; also a solvent or adjuster.
- Ascorbyl Glucoside
- Stable Vitamin C derivative, antioxidant; more stable than pure ascorbic acid, releases activity slowly in neutral/basic conditions.
- Potassium -PCA
- Not decoded yet
- Sodium PCA
- Sodium PCA, NMF component, 1-10% humectant; salty/tacky at high levels.
- Ubiquinone
- Coenzyme Q10 analog used as an antioxidant; prone to discoloration, needs protection from light and air.
- Potassium Cetyl Phosphate
- Cetyl phosphate potassium, O/W emulsifier; pH-sensitive, often requires buffering.
- Sucrose Stearate
- Succrose ester emulsifier/emolient with cleansing properties; HLB determines emulsion type.
- Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer
- Crosspolymer for thickening/film; needs neutralization to pH 7-8 to hydrate, check ion strength.
- Xanthan Gum
- Natural thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, pH-stable, requires full hydration
- Sodium Hydroxide
- Strong base neutralizer for pH adjustment; handle with extreme care
- Citric -Acid
- Not decoded yet
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Sodium Benzoate
- Preservative booster, effective below pH 4.5; combinable with sorbates
- Potassium Sorbate
- Preservative effective below pH 6; combinable with sodium benzoate
