Formulation view Liquid highlighter based on water, glycerin, and plant oils, with mica and synthetic mica for pearlescence. Plant extracts (oat, tamarind) adjust texture. Factory view: aqueous system requires preservatives; mica luster depends on particle size. Suitable for all skin types for daily brightening.

Ingredients explained

Aqua/Water

Solvent, formulation base; requires preservation, pure water is microbially prone.

Hydrogenated Didecene

Lightweight synthetic ester with quick-dry feel; minimal sensitization risk at high purity; ideal for oily/combo skin

Glycerin

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

Mica

Mineral colorant for pearlescence; heavy metal screening required

Isododecane

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

Hydrogenated Polydecene

Hydrogenated polydecene, light mineral oil alternative, low comedogenic; silky, non-greasy.

Propanediol

Polyol solvent at 1–5%; light feel, aids solubilization, propylene glycol alternative

PEG-10 Dimethicone

Modified silicone for silky feel and shine; PEG structure aids O/W emulsification, used in hair and skin care.

Hydrogenated Styrene/Isoprene Copolymer

Hydrogenated styrene/isoprene copolymer for viscosity control; film-forming polymer, generally inert and non-comedogenic.

Sodium Chloride

Salt for gel viscosity control; used as precipitant in soaps

Polyglyceryl-3 Diisostearate

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

Sodium Dehydroacetate

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

Caprylyl Glycol

Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol

1,2-Hexanediol

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

Sodium Phytate

Chelating agent stabilizes metal ions to prevent oxidative degradation; also used in oral care, high safety profile.

Avena Sativa Kernel Extract/Avena Sativa Kernel Extract

Oat kernel extract for soothing and antioxidant; suitable for sensitive skin

Tamarindus Indica Seed Polysaccharide

Natural film-forming humectant, 0.1–1%; thickener, prone to oxidation, keep away from light

Triethoxycaprylylsilane

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

Caesalpinia Spinosa Fruit Extract

Plant extract for skin protection; contains antioxidants, may need stabilizers at high conc.

Synthetic Fluorphlogopite

Mica filler at 1-10%; luster/thickening, inert, verify mineral purity, no public comedogenic data.

Kappaphycus Alvarezii Extract

Seaweed polysaccharide; film forming and moisturizing; provides gel texture; gentle.

Aluminum Calcium Sodium Silicate

Anti-caking agent and adsorbent. Inert; used in powders/creams. Watch inhalation risk of dust.

Phenoxyethanol

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

Alcohol

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

Ethylhexylglycerin

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

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.

Tin Oxide

Inorganic mineral pigment providing opacity and suspension; requires skin safety assessment, typically used in sunscreens or powder colorants.

Titanium Dioxide

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

Iron Oxides ]

Iron oxide pigments for coverage and color; inert inorganics, non-irritating, ensure fine milling
