Ingredients explained
- Mica
- Mineral colorant for pearlescence; heavy metal screening required
- Silica
- Silica powder at 1–10%; absorbs oil, thickens, provides matte finish, for oil-control products
- Corn Starch Modified
- Modified corn starch, absorbent/film former; distinguish food/cosmetic grade, control Aw for stability.
- Ethylene/Acrylic Acid Copolymer
- Water-soluble film former for matte feel; often used in emulsion form
- Polyethylene
- Plastic polymer particles for abrasion or film; check EU ban on microplastics in rinse-off products, flush-off only
- Octyldodecyl Stearoyl Stearate
- Ester emollient for silky feel and thickening; 1-5%, avoid acidic systems
- Squalane
- Emollient from plants or synthetic; light texture
- Sorbitan Isostearate
- Non-ionic emulsifier (low HLB); typically used in blends, low comedogenicity, soft skin feel.
- Ethylhexylglycerin
- Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel
- Glyceryl Caprylate
- Mild emulsifier/deodorant at 0.5-2%; polyol ester, high humectancy, low irritancy, check cationic surfactant compatibility.
- Dimethicone
- Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin
- Water
- Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
- Mineral Salts
- Mixture of inorganic salts; check heavy metal purity
- Butylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel
- Mentha Arvensis Leaf Extract
- Wild mint leaf extract for cooling; contains menthol, may irritate sensitive skin.
- Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract
- Green tea extract for antioxidant/astringent; contains caffeine, possible irritation in sensitive skin.
- 1,2-Hexanediol
- Polyol solvent and preservative booster at 1–5%; light feel, can replace some traditional preservatives
