Ingredients explained

Aqua/Water/Eau

Water as solvent/base; main ingredient, microbial control needed, paired with preservatives.

Cetyl Dimethicone

Silicone emulsifier/conditioner; excellent slip, hydrophobic, non-comedogenic.

Dimethicone

Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

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

Isododecane

Synthetic hydrocarbon solvent providing dry, silky skin feel; high volatility, non-comedogenic, common in sunscreens and foundations, usage 5-30%.

C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate

C12-15 alkyl benzoate; emollient, emulsifier, and antistatic; aids stability and smoothness, moderate low comedogenicity.

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

Cetyl PEG/PPG-10/1 Dimethicone

Silicone surfactant, smooth and mild; regulates rheology and adds antistatic benefits

Polyglyceryl-3 Diisostearate

Mild emulsifier for low-foam systems; suitable for sensitive skin.

Silica

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

Anthemis Nobilis Flower Water

Chamomile water with soothing and anti-inflammatory effects; contains trace oils, may sensitize ragweed-allergic individuals.

Citrus Aurantium Amara Flower Water

Bitter orange flower water offering floral fragrance and mild conditioning.

Synthetic Wax

Waxy solidifier for hardness and gloss; complex mixture, not a single molecule.

Sodium Chloride

Salt for gel viscosity control; used as precipitant in soaps

Zinc Stearate

Powder slip and dispersing agent for cosmetic powders; insoluble in water/oil.

Mica

Mineral colorant for pearlescence; heavy metal screening required

Phenoxyethanol

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

Alumina

Alumina, inorganic abrasive/thickener; nano-grade requires inhalation risk assessment.

Lauroyl Lysine

Lauroyl lysine, amino-acid surfactant derivative, mild foaming; often blended to lower irritation.

Disteardimonium Hectorite

Inorganic ionic clay thickener at 0.25-1%; water/oil/solvent systems, rheology control, avoid strong acids, may affect active release.

Sodium Dehydroacetate

Sodium dehydroacetate, preservative <0.5%; restricted for eye, children, and lip use.

Tocopheryl Acetate

Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light

Alcohol

Ethanol for solubility/drying at 5-15%; high conc. is drying/irritating, avoid lip/eye, low residue, balance with humectants.

Ascorbyl Palmitate

Ascorbyl palmitate, lipophilic Vit C ester, antioxidant; oxidizes, needs light/air protection.

Triethoxycaprylylsilane

Silane coupling agent at 0.1-0.5%; enhances inorganic filler adhesion, trace use, low toxicity, avoid direct contact with aqueous systems.

Aluminum Hydroxide

Aluminum hydroxide for emollient/thickening; opacifier, used in antiperspirants, particulate risk.

Dehydroacetic Acid

Broad-spectrum preservative for acidic and oil-based systems; has concentration limits, requires challenge testing.

Pentaerythrityl Tetra-Di-T-Butyl Hydroxyhydrocinnamate

High-efficiency lipid-soluble antioxidant preventing oil rancidity; very low usage, typically 0.05-0.1%, ensure even distribution, avoid metal-catalyzed oxidation.

Benzyl Alcohol

Mild preservative/solvent at 0.5-1.0%; EU allergen (labeling required), irritation risk if concentrated, avoid in infant/highly sensitive skin.

Linalool

Natural fragrance component at ≤0.05%; one of EU 26 allergens, caution for sensitive skin

Geraniol

Geraniol for fragrance; EU 26 allergen, labeling required above 0.001%.

Titanium Dioxide

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

Iron Oxides (Ci 77491

Not decoded yet

Ci 77492

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

Ci 77499)

Not decoded yet

Red 30 Lake

Red 30 lake for color; water-insoluble, requires stable dispersion
