Formulation view Aerosol hair spray using isobutane, butane, and propane as propellants. Polyquaternium-4 and guar gum provide hold, while calcium pantothenate and arginine condition the hair. Contains Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate to protect against UV damage. Preserved with phenoxyethanol. Suitable for users balancing style and hair health. Formulator note: High propellant ratio prioritizes spray distribution; inclusion of a UV filter indicates focus on preventing oxidative damage to hair proteins.

Ingredients explained
- Aqua/Water
- Solvent, formulation base; requires preservation, pure water is microbially prone.
- Isobutane
- Propellant for aerosol products, flammable; store and transport away from fire sources
- Propylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant at 3-10%; hygroscopic, slight tackiness, mild irritation at high conc., verify preservative efficacy, no allergen.
- Polyquaternium-4
- Not decoded yet
- Butane
- Butane propellant; highly flammable, volatile; requires pressure vessel compliance.
- Propane
- Propellant for aerosol delivery; requires sealed packaging, keep away from flames and high heat.
- PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil
- Solubilizer and emulsifier for oil-soluble ingredients; high concentrations may cause contact dermatitis in sensitive skin.
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Laureth-4
- Not decoded yet
- Caprylyl Glycol
- Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol
- Calcium Pantothenate
- Pro-vitamin B5 for hair/skin conditioning; water-soluble, used in conditioners
- Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate
- UVA absorber used with other filters; poor water stability and photolability, requires light stabilizers, max concentration typically 10%.
- Safflower Glucoside
- Nonionic surfactant for hair conditioning; improves slip and shine in rinse-off formulas; check cationic compatibility.
- Arginine
- Arginine for moisturizing/conditioning; amino acid, high biocompatibility, often used in blends.
- Glutamic Acid
- Glutamic acid, non-essential amino acid humectant; high levels can be astringent, buffer needed.
- Cetrimonium Chloride
- Cationic surfactant/preservative for conditioning; irritating at high levels, restricted use
- Serine
- Humectant amino acid, 1–3%; high water solubility, compatible with sensitive skin.
- Hexyl Cinnamal
- Common fragrance component (jasmine/vanilla note); listed EU allergen, requires labeling at >10ppm (leave-on).
- Hydroxypropyltrimonium Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein
- Not decoded yet
- Linalool

- Citronellol
- Citronellol for fragrance; EU 26 allergen, labeling required above 0.001%.
- Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone
- Vanilla-like fragrance ingredient; one of EU 26 allergens, caution advised for sensitive skin.
- Sodium Hyaluronate
- Potent humectant at 0.1–2%; different MW for penetration depth, high levels may draw moisture
- 2-Oleamido-1,3-Octadecanediol
- Lipid-based emollient for barrier repair; lipophilic.
- Geraniol
- Geraniol for fragrance; EU 26 allergen, labeling required above 0.001%.
- Parfum/Fragrance
- Blended fragrance for odor; contains 26 restricted allergens, use caution in sensitive/child/eye products, verify compliance.
