Ingredients explained
- Aqua
- Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical
- Kaolin
- Kaolin absorbent and bulk for powders/masks; check for heavy metals and comply with EU colorant limits IV/119
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride
- Light occlusive and solvent at 1–10%; non-greasy feel, suitable for oily and combination skin
- Stearyl Alcohol
- Stearic alcohol; fatty alcohol for emulsion thickening/structure, often blended with soaps, moderate comedogenicity.
- Butyrospermum Parkii Butter
- Shea butter for occlusive moisturizing; high melt point, rich texture, caution for oily skin.
- Di-C12-13 Alkyl Malate
- Esther emollient to improve texture and gloss; low concentration, low comedogenic risk, no specific compatibility issues.
- Magnesium Aluminum Silicate
- Oil-absorbing powder at 5–20%; for pressed/powder makeup, high levels may feel heavy
- Glyceryl Stearate
- Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification
- PEG-100 Stearate
- Non-ionic emulsifier, requires ionics for stability; check PEG for formaldehyde.
- Pentaerythrityl Distearate
- Oil-soluble emulsifier/wax; improves cream hardness and shine, typical use 1-5%, non-ionic
- Xanthan Gum
- Natural thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, pH-stable, requires full hydration
- Sodium Citrate
- Sodium citrate for buffering and chelating; adjust pH, careful with strong acid reactions.
- Imidazolidinyl Urea
- Formaldehyde releaser in preservative systems; monitor for formaldehyde and urea sensitivity issues.
- 1,2-Hexanediol
- Polyol solvent and preservative booster at 1–5%; light feel, can replace some traditional preservatives
- Caprylyl Glycol
- Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol
- Allantoin
- Skin soother at 0.5-2%; promotes cell regeneration
- Citric Acid
- Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH
- Disodium EDTA
- Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy
- Parfum
- Fragrance for scent; may contain allergens, caution for sensitive skin, full labeling required.
- Salix Alba Bark Extract
- Contains natural salicylic acid precursors, mild exfoliating and antibacterial; may irritate at high levels; avoid in sensitive skin.
- Lamium Album Leaf Extract
- Not decoded yet
- Charcoal Powder
- Charcoal; adsorbs impurities/oil for cleansers, provides opacity, can be drying or matte.
- Salicylic Acid
- Lipophilic BHA at 0.5-2%; exfoliant/sebum control, irritation/sensitization at high conc., photosensitivity (SPF needed), avoid sensitive/pregnant.
- Potassium Sorbate
- Preservative effective below pH 6; combinable with sodium benzoate
- Sodium Benzoate
- Preservative booster, effective below pH 4.5; combinable with sorbates
- Ci 77499
