Ingredients explained

Water / Aqua / Eau

Water, primary solvent and carrier; inert but requires strict microbial control as the main medium for contamination.

Glycerin

Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives

Butylene Glycol

Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel

Pentaerythrityl Tetraethylhexanoate

Esther emollient for a light, silky feel; heavy at high concentrations.

Dicaprylyl Carbonate

Light emollient solvent at 5–15%; mineral oil-free, refreshing feel, low sensitization.

Cetearyl Alcohol

Fatty alcohol emulsifier at 1-5%; non-ionic surfactant

Jojoba Esters

Jojoba esters, light emollient ester, low comedogenic; sebum-like, excellent spreadability.

Cyclopentasiloxane

Cyclopentasiloxane for emollient/solvent; volatile silicone, smooth feel, check VOC regulations.

Tridecyl Trimellitate

Ester emollient for skin conditioning; lipophilic nature may increase comedogenicity for acne-prone skin.

Niacinamide

Niacinamide at 2–5%; improves texture, controls oil, brightens; high levels may cause sensitivity

Cyclohexasiloxane

Volatile cyclic silicone evaporating without residue; ensure compliance with EU limits on cyclic polydimethylsiloxanes, use octamer

Glyceryl Stearate

Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification

Polyglyceryl-3 Methylglucose Distearate

Non-ionic emulsifier at 1–3%; mild, easily combined with other surfactants.

Bis-Hydroxyethoxypropyl Dimethicone

Modified silicone emulsifier/emollient; improves oil-water stability and skin luster with a smooth texture.

1,2-Hexanediol

Polyol solvent and preservative booster at 1–5%; light feel, can replace some traditional preservatives

Peg-60 Glyceryl Isostearate

Non-ionic solubilizer/emulsifier; high HLB, often paired with anionics, may increase penetration.

Peg-100 Stearate

Non-ionic emulsifier, requires ionics for stability; check PEG for formaldehyde.

Polyacrylate-13

Not decoded yet

Fragrance / Parfum

Generic term for fragrance mix; components vary. Primary source of EU 26 allergens; check disclosure and sensitivity.

Polyisobutene

Inert film former and occlusive; increases viscosity, slippery feel, used in lipsticks

Boron Nitride

Flake-shaped inorganic filler for slip and bulk in powders; control particle size to minimize inhalation risk

Glyceryl Caprylate

Mild emulsifier/deodorant at 0.5-2%; polyol ester, high humectancy, low irritancy, check cationic surfactant compatibility.

Ethylhexylglycerin

Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel

Disodium Edta

Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy

Oenothera Biennis Oil

Natural oil rich in GLA; supports barrier, prone to oxidation, needs antioxidants

Adenosine

Skin conditioner at 0.1-1%; used for anti-aging and repair

Polysorbate 20

Non-ionic emulsifier and cleansing surfactant; contains PEG, control microbial load.

Sorbitan Isostearate

Non-ionic emulsifier (low HLB); typically used in blends, low comedogenicity, soft skin feel.

Crithmum Maritimum Callus Culture Filtrate

Not decoded yet

Dextrin

Polymer thickener and binder from starch fermentation; biodegradable, hygroscopic, may affect powder flow

Theobroma Cacao Extract

Cacao extract providing antioxidants and conditioning, aids skin elasticity.

Tocopherol

Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light

Saponins

Saponins, natural non-ionic surfactants providing mild foam; diverse botanical sources (e.g., soy, licorice) require allergen screening.

Glycine Soja Oil

Soybean oil emollient; prone to oxidation, needs antioxidants; suitable for dry skin
