Ingredients explained
- Water
- Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
- Cyclopentasiloxane
- Cyclopentasiloxane for emollient/solvent; volatile silicone, smooth feel, check VOC regulations.
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Caprylyl Methicone
- Volatile silicone, fresh feel, does not absorb oil, used in foundations and cushions.
- Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride
- Light occlusive and solvent at 1–10%; non-greasy feel, suitable for oily and combination skin
- Dimethicone Crosspolymer
- Crosslinked silicone polymer providing silkiness and viscosity control; for hair and skin; inert but hard to biodegrade.
- Dimethicone
- Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin
- Potassium chloride
- Viscosity modifier for gels and shampoos; high concentrations may cause local stinging.
- PEG-10 Dimethicone
- Modified silicone for silky feel and shine; PEG structure aids O/W emulsification, used in hair and skin care.
- Sucrose Distearate
- Nonionic emulsifier and emollient at 1–3%; biodegradable, low irritancy, for mild cleansing and emulsions
- Titanium Dioxide
- Physical UV filter and colorant up to 25%; nano form requires attention
- Acrylates Crosspolymer
- Acrylates crosspolymer; absorbent and suspending agent
- Stearyl dimethicone
- Silicone emulsifier/modifier for texture. Highly occlusive; use caution in acne-prone skin or if silicone sensitivity is a concern.
- Perfume
- Perfume/Fragrance blend. Opaque composition, a leading cause of contact dermatitis. Must list specific EU 26 allergens if present. Patch test required.
- Stearic Acid
- Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel
- Magnesium sulfate
- Bulk agent at 0.1–1%; highly water-soluble, avoid high local concentration.
- Cholesterol
- Cholesterol; barrier repair lipid mimicking stratum corneum; often blended with ceramides, plant or fermentation source.
- Disteardimonium Hectorite
- Inorganic ionic clay thickener at 0.25-1%; water/oil/solvent systems, rheology control, avoid strong acids, may affect active release.
- DMDM Hydantoin
- Formaldehyde-releasing preservative (V/33 limit); monitor cumulative formaldehyde with fragrances.
- Octadecane
- Octadecane, saturated alkane, emollient and solvent, good spreadability, low irritation, but high occlusivity, limit use in oily skin
- Isomerized linoleic acid
- Not decoded yet
- Ammonium lactate
- Buffering, humectant, and keratolytic agent; pH adjustor, dosage based on buffering needs.
- Disodium EDTA
- Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy
- Acetamide MEA
- Not decoded yet
- Retinyl Palmitate
- Vitamin A ester for skin conditioning; light-sensitive, requires protection, avoid in pregnancy.
- Cetyl Alcohol
- Cetyl alcohol for emulsification/thickening; high concentration >10% may irritate.
- Butylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel
- Helianthus annuus
- Not decoded yet
- Iodopropynyl Butylcarbamate
- Broad-spectrum preservative; mild irritation; caution for sensitized skin.
- BHT
- Lipophilic antioxidant at 0.01-0.05%; ineffective with acidic systems, label-sensitive, check regulatory limits as preservative alternative.
- CI 17200
- Acid Red 33 hair dye; restricted use, potential scalp irritation
