Ingredients explained
- Isododecane
- Synthetic hydrocarbon solvent providing dry, silky skin feel; high volatility, non-comedogenic, common in sunscreens and foundations, usage 5-30%.
- Mica
- Mineral colorant for pearlescence; heavy metal screening required
- Trimethylsiloxysilicate
- Silicate powder, oil-absorbing emollient; insoluble, high levels feel powdery.
- Synthetic Fluorphlogopite
- Mica filler at 1-10%; luster/thickening, inert, verify mineral purity, no public comedogenic data.
- Aluminum Starch Octenylsuccinate
- Modified starch absorbent at 1–10%; for powder products, oil-absorbing without heavy feel
- Diisostearyl Malate
- Diisostearyl malate; lightweight emollient and emulsifier; non-greasy feel, biodegradable, used in premium systems.
- Hydrogenated Styrene/Isoprene Copolymer
- Hydrogenated styrene/isoprene copolymer for viscosity control; film-forming polymer, generally inert and non-comedogenic.
- Disteardimonium Hectorite
- Inorganic ionic clay thickener at 0.25-1%; water/oil/solvent systems, rheology control, avoid strong acids, may affect active release.
- Polyethylene
- Plastic polymer particles for abrasion or film; check EU ban on microplastics in rinse-off products, flush-off only
- Trihydroxystearin
- Polyol thickener and humectant; water-soluble, improves viscosity and basic conditioning
- Polymethylsilsesquioxane
- Silicone polymer for emolliency, matte effect, and suspension; used in foundations or powder suspensions, typical usage 1-5%, smooth skin feel.
- Silica
- Silica powder at 1–10%; absorbs oil, thickens, provides matte finish, for oil-control products
- Propylene Carbonate
- Inert solvent and viscosity modifier; often used as penetration enhancer, mild at low levels
- Lauroyl Lysine
- Lauroyl lysine, amino-acid surfactant derivative, mild foaming; often blended to lower irritation.
- 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.
- Ci 77891
- Titanium dioxide inorganic pigment and UV filter; assess inhalation risk for nano-forms and EU restrictions
- Ci 77491
- Iron oxides red; physical pigment. Coloring and photo-protective, stable and non-irritating.
- Ci 77492
- Iron oxide red; stable inorganic pigment, non-toxic; ensure dispersion to prevent sedimentation.
- Ci 77499
- Inorganic colorant manganese dioxide used in cosmetics; restricted use component subject to regulatory limits.
- Ci 77000
- Titanium dioxide, white pigment and physical sunscreen; high refractive index, ensure dispersion
- Ci 77400
- Titanium dioxide, white pigment and UV filter; restricted in eye makeup, assess nano-form risk.
- Ci 77400
- Titanium dioxide, white pigment and UV filter; restricted in eye makeup, assess nano-form risk.
- Ci 75470
- Inorganic pigment for color and scent; EU restricted, compliance required.
- Ci 77007
- Mica-based colorant, restricted use; mineral origin, check heavy metal impurities compliance
- Ci 77510
- Tin oxide, inert white pigment; non-toxic and non-irritating; used for coverage or as physical sunscreen aid
