Ingredients explained
- Talc
- Inorganic mineral powder for texture and oil absorption; must be asbestos-free; fineness affects skin feel and safety, avoid inhalation.
- Nylon-12
- Not decoded yet
- Synthetic Fluorphlogopite
- Mica filler at 1-10%; luster/thickening, inert, verify mineral purity, no public comedogenic data.
- Dimethicone
- Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin
- Magnesium Stearate
- Anti-caking agent for solids; restricted in injections, control dosage in topicals.
- Octyldodecanol
- Light emollient/emulsifier at 1-5%; low comedogenic, non-greasy feel, broadly compatible, sensitive-skin friendly.
- Bis-Diglyceryl Polyacyladipate-2
- Not decoded yet
- Octyldodecyl Stearoyl Stearate
- Ester emollient for silky feel and thickening; 1-5%, avoid acidic systems
- Cetyl Dimethicone
- Silicone emulsifier/conditioner; excellent slip, hydrophobic, non-comedogenic.
- Tocopheryl Acetate
- Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light
- Caprylyl Glycol
- Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Mica
- Mineral colorant for pearlescence; heavy metal screening required
- 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
