Ingredients explained

Aqua

Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical

C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate

C12-15 alkyl benzoate; emollient, emulsifier, and antistatic; aids stability and smoothness, moderate low comedogenicity.

Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate

Novel UVB absorber at 0.2-1.5%; narrow band, requires combination, high photostability, verify regional limits, low irritation.

Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol

Not decoded yet

Methoxyphenyl Triazine

Not decoded yet

Diethyl Butamido Triazone

Not decoded yet

Isoamyl Laurate

Lightweight ester emollient; fast-drying, non-greasy feel, suitable for oily skin or summer formulations

PPG-15 Stearyl Ether

PPG-15 stearyl ether emollient, improves spreadability; low-molecular PPG, slippery feel.

Hexylene Glycol

Polyol solvent and humectant with penetration enhancement; limit concentration to avoid irritation, no specific allergen tag

Caprylyl Methicone

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

Titanium Dioxide

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

Dipropylene Glycol Dibenzoate

Non-ionic emulsifier/emollient with humectant properties; viscous liquid.

Ethylhexyl Triazone

UVB absorber with good photostability; formulated with other filters, typical concentration 3-5%, check compatibility with other ingredients.

Hectorite

Clay absorbent and viscosity controller; used in silicone-free hair products.

Trilaureth-4 Phosphate

Mild surfactant for emulsification and cleansing; low irritation profile.

Ethyl Ascorbic Acid

Ethyl ascorbic acid, lipophilic Vit C derivative, antioxidant/whitening; more stable than L-AA, for oil phases

Polypodium Leucotomos Leaf Extract

Not decoded yet

Ethylhexyl Ferulate

Not decoded yet

Ferulic Acid

Antioxidant, often combined with vitamin C and E; 0.5-2%, photolabile

Caffeic Acid

Not decoded yet

Glycerin

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

Physalis Angulata Extract

Physalis extract rich in polysaccharides and flavonoids for soothing and skin protection. Extraction method affects activity; use standardized extracts for consistency.

Ethylhexylglycerin

Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel

Ethyl Linoleate

Fatty acid ester emollient for dryness; prone to oxidation, requires light protection.

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

Light occlusive and solvent at 1–10%; non-greasy feel, suitable for oily and combination skin

Oleyl Alcohol

Oleic acid derivative acting as emulsifier, thickener, and perfume; mild and low comedogenic risk, often paired with oleic acid.

Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer

Crosspolymer for thickening/film; needs neutralization to pH 7-8 to hydrate, check ion strength.

Ethyl Lauroyl Arginate Hcl

Not decoded yet

Citric Acid

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

Arabidopsis Thaliana Extract

Arabidopsis thaliana extract, typically used as a plant-derived antioxidant or actives; research-grade ingredient; confirm stability in final formulation

Sorbic Acid

Preservative effective at low pH, often combined with sorbate salts; check regulatory limits

Xanthan Gum

Natural thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, pH-stable, requires full hydration

Butylene Glycol

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

Manganese Oxide

Not decoded yet

Oxothiazolidine

Not decoded yet

Tocopherol
