- Not decoded yet
- Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane 3%
- Not decoded yet
- C12-15 alkyl benzoate 290.447g/mol
- Not decoded yet
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Titanium Dioxide
- Physical UV filter and colorant up to 25%; nano form requires attention
- Phenylbenzimidazole Sulfonic Acid 2%
- Not decoded yet
- Cyclohexasiloxane
- Volatile cyclic silicone evaporating without residue; ensure compliance with EU limits on cyclic polydimethylsiloxanes, use octamer
- Potassium cetyl phosphate 398.606g/mol
- Not decoded yet
- Aluminum starch octenylsuccinate
- Modified starch absorbent at 1–10%; for powder products, oil-absorbing without heavy feel
- Niacinamide
- Niacinamide at 2–5%; improves texture, controls oil, brightens; high levels may cause sensitivity
- Dimethicone Crosspolymer
- Crosslinked silicone polymer providing silkiness and viscosity control; for hair and skin; inert but hard to biodegrade.
- Steareth-21 314.554g/mol
- Not decoded yet
- Ascorbyl Glucoside
- Stable Vitamin C derivative, antioxidant; more stable than pure ascorbic acid, releases activity slowly in neutral/basic conditions.
- Octocrylene 0.5%
- Not decoded yet
- Portulaca Oleracea Extract
- Achyronica extract with anti-inflammatory properties; monitor for heavy metals and pesticides, low-risk at typical doses
- Sodium Hydroxide
- Strong base neutralizer for pH adjustment; handle with extreme care
- Benzyl Alcohol
- Mild preservative/solvent at 0.5-1.0%; EU allergen (labeling required), irritation risk if concentrated, avoid in infant/highly sensitive skin.
- Acrylates/C10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer
- Crosspolymer for thickening/film; needs neutralization to pH 7-8 to hydrate, check ion strength.
- Polyacrylamide
- Film former and thickener for slip and feel; acrylamide monomer residue risk, strict QC required, restriction III/66
- Capryl Glycol
- Multifunctional glycol; moisturizer and preservative booster, gentle but mild irritation at high conc.
- Trimethylsiloxysilicate
- Silicate powder, oil-absorbing emollient; insoluble, high levels feel powdery.
- Butylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel
- Steareth-2
- Not decoded yet
- Tocopheryl Acetate
- Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light
- Bisabolol
- Soothing and anti-inflammatory agent, 0.01–0.1%; low irritation, good for sensitive skin.
- Fragance
- Not decoded yet
- C13-14 Isoparaffin
- Light hydrocarbon solvent providing emolliency and solubility; non-allergenic, note occlusive nature
- Chlorphenesin
- Phenolic antimicrobial; strict EU limits apply, potential allergen, careful dosing required for leave-on products.
- Alumina
- Alumina, inorganic abrasive/thickener; nano-grade requires inhalation risk assessment.
- Ethylhexylglycerin
- Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel
- Laureth-23
- Not decoded yet
- Disodium EDTA
- Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy
- Laureth-7
- Mild non-ionic surfactant for emulsification and solubilization; biodegradable
- Laureth-4
- Not decoded yet
- Lilium Candidum Flower Extract
- Lilium candidum flower extract, traditional soothing conditioner; water-soluble, good compatibility.
- Camellia Oleifera Leaf Extract
- Camellia oleifera leaf extract containing tea polyphenols; acts as astringent and skin conditioner, monitor raw material consistency.
