Formulation view An emulsion system combining aqueous and silicone phases, with denatured alcohol for a matte finish. Features niacinamide and algae extracts, supported by adenosine and ascorbyl glucoside. Preserved with phenoxyethanol. Ideal for oily and combination skin types seeking texture improvement and brightening. Formulation note: High volatile solvent content delivers instant dryness; ethanol levels must be monitored for tolerance on dry skin types.

Ingredients explained

Aqua

Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical

Glycerin

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

Dimethicone

Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin

Isohexadecane

Lightweight mineral-oil-derived emollient and solvent; low viscosity, non-comedogenic, improves texture

Alcohol Denat

Denatured ethanol; solvent, penetration enhancer, and quick-dry agent; high % may compromise barrier in dry skin.

Dipropylene Glycol

Solvent for essential oils; better humectancy than PEG

Niacinamide

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

Synthetic Wax

Waxy solidifier for hardness and gloss; complex mixture, not a single molecule.

PEG-10 Dimethicone

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

Sorbitol

Polyol humectant with strong hygroscopy; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives; also a solvent or adjuster.

Hydroxyethylpiperazine Ethane Sulfonic Acid

Non-ionic buffer to adjust pH around 5.5; commonly used at 0.1–0.5%

Algae Extract

Algae extract with humectant and conditioning effects; may contain natural fragrant components.

Dimethicone/PEG-10/15 Crosspolymer

Silicone/PEG crosspolymer for film forming and viscosity; low irritation; PEG debate at high conc

Dimethicone/Polyglycerin-3 Crosspolymer

Silicone-based emollient improving slip and antistatic feel, typical 1–5%

Sodium Acrylates Copolymer

Water-soluble film former for styling and thickening; check residual acryloyl chloride for sensitive skin.

Sodium Polyacrylate

Superabsorbent resin, <1%; gels with electrolytes, ionic strength control required.

Laminaria Ochroleuca Extract

Brown algae extract for hydration and film-forming; high loads may affect clarity.

Guanosine

Not decoded yet

Adenosine

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

Magnesium Sulfate

Bulk agent at 0.1–1%; highly water-soluble, avoid high local concentration.

Ascorbyl Glucoside

Stable Vitamin C derivative, antioxidant; more stable than pure ascorbic acid, releases activity slowly in neutral/basic conditions.

Nylon-12

Not decoded yet

Disodium EDTA

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

Caprylic/Capric Glycerides

C8/C10 glycerides, light emollient/emulsifier 0-20%; low comedogenic risk, light texture.

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

Light occlusive and solvent at 1–10%; non-greasy feel, suitable for oily and combination skin

Vitreoscilla Ferment

Vitroscilla ferment, natural humectant; microbe-derived, aseptic process, low allergen risk

Disteardimonium Hectorite

Inorganic ionic clay thickener at 0.25-1%; water/oil/solvent systems, rheology control, avoid strong acids, may affect active release.

Ethylhexylglycerin

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

Tocopheryl Acetate

Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light

Phenoxyethanol

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

Parfum

Fragrance for scent; may contain allergens, caution for sensitive skin, full labeling required.
