Free of parabensFree of sulfatesFree of essential oilsFree of formaldehyde releasersContains siliconesContains alcoholContains PEGContains fragranceContains mineral oilContains EU-26 allergens

Formulation view Aerolized sunscreen formula using butane and propane propellants for spray delivery, with multiple sunscreens for SPF30. Contains glycerin and hyaluronic acid for hydration. Ideal for daily commuting. Factory observation: Aerosol packaging must meet pressure vessel regulations; low solubility of sunscreens in water requires precise emulsifier ratios to prevent layering, with photosensitivity warnings.

Ingredients explained

Butane

Butane propellant; highly flammable, volatile; requires pressure vessel compliance.

Aqua

Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical

Cyclopentasiloxane

Cyclopentasiloxane for emollient/solvent; volatile silicone, smooth feel, check VOC regulations.

Dicaprylyl Ether

Lightweight diester solvent and emollient, non-greasy feel; common oil phase carrier; low irritation.

Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate

UVA absorber used with other filters; poor water stability and photolability, requires light stabilizers, max concentration typically 10%.

Isobutane

Propellant for aerosol products, flammable; store and transport away from fire sources

Ethylhexyl Salicylate

Ethylhexyl salicylate, UVB absorber; volatile, requires combination with UVA filters for broad spectrum.

Octocrylene

UV-B absorber and photostabilizer; has concentration limits, consider potential coral toxicity and allergenicity for specific groups.

Nylon-12

Not decoded yet

Propane

Propellant for aerosol delivery; requires sealed packaging, keep away from flames and high heat.

Cyclohexasiloxane

Volatile cyclic silicone evaporating without residue; ensure compliance with EU limits on cyclic polydimethylsiloxanes, use octamer

Peg-30 Dipolyhydroxystearate

W/O emulsifier for fatty acids; contains PEG, verify preservative compatibility.

Glycerin

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

Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane

High-potency UVA filter (Parsol MXX); requires stabilizers and UVB blockers.

Sodium Chloride

Salt for gel viscosity control; used as precipitant in soaps

Phenoxyethanol

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

Trehalose

Trehalose; mild humectant and stabilizer for proteins/actives; hygroscopic, light skin feel.

Urea

Potent humectant and keratolytic, >10% has exfoliating effect; stinging sensation at high levels, sensitive skin caution

Chlorphenesin

Phenolic antimicrobial; strict EU limits apply, potential allergen, careful dosing required for leave-on products.

Tetrasodium Edta

Chelator removing metal ions to enhance antioxidant and preservative efficacy; very low usage, typically 0.05-0.1%, no direct skincare function.

Xylitylglucoside

Polyol humectant with high water absorption and fresh feel; often co-used with propylene glycol for enhanced hydration.

Citric Acid

Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH

Anhydroxylitol

Anhydrous xylitol, potent humectant; high hygroscopicity may cause stickiness at high levels.

Hydrogenated Polydecene

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

Tocopheryl Acetate

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

Pentylene Glycol

Polyol humectant at 1-3%; low irritancy, suitable for sensitive skin

Serine

Humectant amino acid, 1–3%; high water solubility, compatible with sensitive skin.

Parfum

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

Xylitol

Polyol humectant, sweet taste; water-soluble, high hygroscopy, excess draws moisture.

Glucose

Low-MW humectant and buffer; high hygroscopicity requires careful preservation and humidity control.

Algin

Seaweed-derived thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, mind calcium ion compatibility

Caprylyl Glycol

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

Disodium Phosphate

Phosphate buffer for pH adjustment and preservation; water-soluble; high levels may irritate mucous membranes.

Glyceryl Polyacrylate

Water-soluble film former at 1–5%; light feel, soluble in polyols, non-occlusive

Pullulan

Microbial polysaccharide for film forming and thickening; water-soluble film former used in capsules or moisturizing films.

Sodium Hyaluronate

Potent humectant at 0.1–2%; different MW for penetration depth, high levels may draw moisture

Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate

Vitamin C ester antioxidant; more stable than ascorbic acid but still light-sensitive.

Bht

Lipophilic antioxidant at 0.01-0.05%; ineffective with acidic systems, label-sensitive, check regulatory limits as preservative alternative.

Potassium Phosphate

pH adjuster for buffering systems; 0.1-1%, avoid calcium and magnesium ions
