Ingredients explained
- Dimethicone
- Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin
- Isododecane
- Synthetic hydrocarbon solvent providing dry, silky skin feel; high volatility, non-comedogenic, common in sunscreens and foundations, usage 5-30%.
- Water
- Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
- Trisiloxane
- Used as anti-foaming and lubricant; provides silkiness, used at low levels.
- PEG/PPG-19/19 Dimethicone
- PEG/PPG grafted silicone; offers slip and gloss, verify PEG/PPG compatibility in the final formula
- Isodecyl Neopentanoate
- Volatile dry ester for make-up/emulsions; fast-drying, non-greasy, seal to prevent weight loss.
- C13-16 Isoparaffin
- Lightweight isoparaffinic solvent for degreasing and texture adjustment; inert solvent, no inherent allergenicity, but may impact skin barrier with prolonged heavy use.
- Silica Silylate
- Silylate silica for anticaking, defoaming, emulsion stabilization, film-forming; improves powder flow/texture
- C10-13 Isoparaffin
- Not decoded yet
- Dimethicone Crosspolymer
- Crosslinked silicone polymer providing silkiness and viscosity control; for hair and skin; inert but hard to biodegrade.
- Dimethicone/Bis-Isobutyl PPG-20 Crosspolymer
- Synthetic polymer for smooth feel and viscosity control; requires homogenization, compatible with silicones.
- Silica
- Silica powder at 1–10%; absorbs oil, thickens, provides matte finish, for oil-control products
- Tocopherol
- Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Methyl Methacrylate Crosspolymer
- MMA crosspolymer for durable water-soluble film; high doses may create occlusion
- Methicone
- Volatile silicone offering slip and antistatic properties; inert at high purity, check cyclic isomer limits
- Calcium Aluminum Borosilicate
- Synthetic powder filler for smooth feel and coverage; inert.
- Triethoxycaprylylsilane
- Silane coupling agent at 0.1-0.5%; enhances inorganic filler adhesion, trace use, low toxicity, avoid direct contact with aqueous systems.
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Caprylyl Glycol
- Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol
- 1
- Not decoded yet
- 2-Hexanediol
- 2-Hexanediol; branched-chain diol solvent and co-preservative, mild odor, weak humectant.
- 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
- Inorganic pigment for color; particulate form, inhalation risk low in cosmetics.
- Ultramarines
- Inorganic colorant for blue/purple shades; contains trace selenates, requires compliance with heavy metal limits.
