Ingredients explained

Water

Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth

Magnesium Aluminum Silicate

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

Pentylene Glycol

Polyol humectant at 1-3%; low irritancy, suitable for sensitive skin

Ethylhexylglycerin

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

Fragrance

Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components

Lactic Acid

AHA pH adjuster at 0.5-5%; exfoliation/humectancy, mild at low conc., irritating at high, avoid conflict with alkaline preservatives.

Benzyl Benzoate

Chelating agent for stability; restricted substance, not permitted as single component or in mixtures at ≥0.1%.

Butylene Glycol

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

Benzyl salicylate

UV absorber/light stabilizer, restricted in EU; potential sensitizer, risk assessment needed.

Avena Sativa Kernel Extract

Antioxidant and soothing extract; mild abrasive properties, common in conditioning formulas

Cichorium Intybus Root Extract

Chicory root extract with fragrance and skin-conditioning roles; plant-derived, confirm extraction process.

Limonene

Natural fragrance solvent, EU allergen; poor photostability

Sanguisorba Officinalis Root Extract

Astringent and soothing claims; used in toners/cleansers; monitor for plant protein allergies.

Phenoxyethanol

Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin

Sodium Hyaluronate

Potent humectant at 0.1–2%; different MW for penetration depth, high levels may draw moisture

BHT

Lipophilic antioxidant at 0.01-0.05%; ineffective with acidic systems, label-sensitive, check regulatory limits as preservative alternative.

Tocopherol

Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light

Cinnamomum Cassia Bark Extract

Cinnamon bark for hair and fragrance; some allergens require labeling; watch oral dosage.

Zingiber officinale
