Ingredients explained

Water/Aqua/Eau

Primary aqueous solvent and carrier; no specific incompatibilities, focus on microbial stability.

Propylheptyl Caprylate

Light ester for smooth, non-volatile feel; non-comedogenic and low irritation

Zinc Oxide 8.0064%

Not decoded yet

Dibutyl Adipate

Light ester, solvent and emollient, fresh feel and volatility, non-comedogenic.

Methyl Trimethicone

Methyl trimethicone, light volatile silicone; non-comedogenic, good powder compatibility.

Dipropylene Glycol

Solvent for essential oils; better humectancy than PEG

Polyglyceryl-3 Polydimethylsiloxyethyl Dimethicone

Water-soluble silicone conditioning agent providing smooth, non-greasy feel; suitable for both hair and skin

Methyl Methacrylate Crosspolymer

MMA crosspolymer for durable water-soluble film; high doses may create occlusion

Niacinamide

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

Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine 1.5%

Not decoded yet

Ethylhexyl Triazone 1.5%

Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate 1.5%

Not decoded yet

Butyloctyl Salicylate

Oil-soluble exfoliating emollient; avoid for aspirin-sensitive users and high-concentration leave-on products

Titanium Dioxide

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

Lauryl Polyglyceryl-3 Polydimethylsiloxyethyl Dimethicone

Silicone-modified surfactant providing conditioning and cleansing benefits; used in hair care with low irritancy.

Disteardimonium Hectorite

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

Magnesium Sulfate

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

Sorbitan Caprylate

Non-ionic oil-soluble emulsifier for W/O systems at 1–5%; low irritancy, suitable for sensitive skin.

Triethoxycaprylylsilane

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

Fragrance/Parfum

Fragrance mixture for odor; complex composition with potential allergens, use with caution in sensitive or children's products.

Aluminum Hydroxide

Aluminum hydroxide for emollient/thickening; opacifier, used in antiperspirants, particulate risk.

Glyceryl Caprylate

Salvia Hispanica Seed Extract

Plant extract with mucilage and saponins; acts as skin emollient and conditioning agent.

Echium Plantagineum Seed Oil

Linoleic-rich seed oil; high oxidation risk, requires antioxidants and light protection to maintain stability

Tocopherol

Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light

Butylene Glycol

Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel

Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil

Sunflower seed oil for emollient/occlusive; high linoleic acid, low comedogenicity.
