Ingredients explained
- Aqua/Water/Eau
- Water as solvent/base; main ingredient, microbial control needed, paired with preservatives.
- Propylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant at 3-10%; hygroscopic, slight tackiness, mild irritation at high conc., verify preservative efficacy, no allergen.
- Dimethicone
- Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin
- Hydroxypropyl Tetrahydropyrantriol
- Antioxidant and skin conditioning agent; effective at low levels, test for sensitivity.
- Cyclohexasiloxane
- Volatile cyclic silicone evaporating without residue; ensure compliance with EU limits on cyclic polydimethylsiloxanes, use octamer
- Isohexadecane
- Lightweight mineral-oil-derived emollient and solvent; low viscosity, non-comedogenic, improves texture
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Synthetic Wax
- Waxy solidifier for hardness and gloss; complex mixture, not a single molecule.
- Dimethicone/PEG-10/15 Crosspolymer
- Silicone/PEG crosspolymer for film forming and viscosity; low irritation; PEG debate at high conc
- Aluminum Starch Octenylsuccinate
- Modified starch absorbent at 1–10%; for powder products, oil-absorbing without heavy feel
- Ci 77163/Bismuth Oxychloride
- Bismuth oxychloride, a pearlescent powder for cosmetics and skincare gloss; high concentrations may deposit around the eyes.
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Magnesium Sulfate
- Bulk agent at 0.1–1%; highly water-soluble, avoid high local concentration.
- Ethylhexyl Hydroxystearate
- Ester emollient 1-5%; non-comedogenic, silky, compatible with sunscreens
- Salicyloyl Phytosphingosine
- Synthetic ingredient combining salicylic acid and phytosphingosine functions; promotes keratinocyte turnover, may cause dryness at high levels.
- Acrylates Copolymer
- Acrylate synthetic polymer for film forming and antistatic; breathable film, control dosage carefully
- Methylparaben
- Preservative, narrow spectrum; often combined, check allergen risk and regulatory limits.
- Ethylparaben
- Paraben preservative; EU restricted, watch total load and sensitive skin reactions
- Disodium EDTA
- Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy
- Vaccinium Myrtillus Extract/Vaccinium Myrtillus Fruit Extract
- Blueberry/bilberry extract; antioxidant/soothing, no public irritation or comedogenic data
- Parfum/Fragrance
- Blended fragrance for odor; contains 26 restricted allergens, use caution in sensitive/child/eye products, verify compliance.
- Butylphenyl Methylpropional
- Synthetic fragrance with floral notes; EU regulations limit usage, strict monitoring required.
- Coumarin
- Classic fragrance and photosensitizer, EU restriction III/77; high allergen risk, limit in facial products
