Ingredients explained

Octinoxate

Water-soluble UVB absorber for sunscreen; concentration limited by regulations, may irritate sensitive skin

Octocrylene

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

Titanium Dioxide

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

Water

Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth

Dimethicone

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

Glycerin

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

Trifluoropropyldimethyl/Trimethylsiloxysilicate

Fluorosilicone copolymer for dry touch and adhesion; inert silicone, low irritancy, enhances makeup longevity.

Caprylyl Methicone

Volatile silicone, fresh feel, does not absorb oil, used in foundations and cushions.

Butylene Glycol

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

Dimethicone/PEG-10/15 Crosspolymer

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

Sodium Chloride

Salt for gel viscosity control; used as precipitant in soaps

Synthetic Fluorphlogopite

Mica filler at 1-10%; luster/thickening, inert, verify mineral purity, no public comedogenic data.

Squalane

Emollient from plants or synthetic; light texture

Hydrogenated Polyisobutene

Hydrogenated polyisobutene; petroleum-derived lubricant forming breathable film; high purity, low irritation/comedogenicity.

Thymus Serpyllum Extract

Wormwood extract for skin conditioning and antibacterial effects; contains thymol, control concentration

Dimethicone/Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer

Crosslinked silicone thickener at 0.5-2%; silky/matte feel, non-comedogenic, partial oil phase incompatibility, use co-solvent/pre-emulsification.

Polyquaternium-51

Not decoded yet

Sodium Hyaluronate

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

Hydrolyzed Conchiolin Protein

Hydrolyzed pearl protein for hydration/repair; animal-derived; low MW aids penetration, low sensitization

Sorbitan Sesquiisostearate

Non-ionic emulsifier for O/W systems; very low irritation when pure, but patch testing is recommended for sensitive consumers.

Disteardimonium Hectorite

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

PEG-10 Dimethicone

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

Aluminum Hydroxide

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

Stearic Acid

Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel

Trisodium EDTA

Metal chelator improving formula stability and synergizing preservatives; used at very low levels (<0.1%), control heavy metals.

Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer

High-molecular-weight thickener and emulsion stabilizer; requires electrolytes or acid adjustment near isoelectric point for optimal performance.

Lithium Magnesium Sodium Silicate

Not decoded yet

Polysilicone-2

Not decoded yet

Sodium Citrate

Sodium citrate for buffering and chelating; adjust pH, careful with strong acid reactions.

Dipropylene Glycol

Solvent for essential oils; better humectancy than PEG

Polysorbate 60

Non-ionic emulsifier and solubilizer for O/W or W/O stability; may cause mild stinging on sensitive skin, typically 1-5%.

Isododecane

Synthetic hydrocarbon solvent providing dry, silky skin feel; high volatility, non-comedogenic, common in sunscreens and foundations, usage 5-30%.

PEG/PPG-19/19 Dimethicone

PEG/PPG grafted silicone; offers slip and gloss, verify PEG/PPG compatibility in the final formula

BHT

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

Tocopherol

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

Sorbitan Isostearate

Non-ionic emulsifier (low HLB); typically used in blends, low comedogenicity, soft skin feel.

Trimethylsiloxysilylcarbamoyl Pullulan

Not decoded yet

Polymethylsilsesquioxane

Silicone polymer for emolliency, matte effect, and suspension; used in foundations or powder suspensions, typical usage 1-5%, smooth skin feel.

Phenoxyethanol

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

Iron Oxides

Inorganic pigment for color; particulate form, inhalation risk low in cosmetics.

Titanium Dioxide

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

Mica

Mineral colorant for pearlescence; heavy metal screening required
