Ingredients explained

Aqua (Water

Primary solvent; requires preservatives at high concentration; adjust viscosity with thickeners

Eau)

Pure water, solvent and diluent; drinking water standard, no known allergens or irritation

Kaolin

Kaolin absorbent and bulk for powders/masks; check for heavy metals and comply with EU colorant limits IV/119

Ci 77891

Titanium dioxide inorganic pigment and UV filter; assess inhalation risk for nano-forms and EU restrictions

Stearic Acid

Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel

Jojoba Esters

Jojoba esters, light emollient ester, low comedogenic; sebum-like, excellent spreadability.

Butylene Glycol

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

Lactic Acid

AHA pH adjuster at 0.5-5%; exfoliation/humectancy, mild at low conc., irritating at high, avoid conflict with alkaline preservatives.

Glycerin

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

Myristyl Nicotinate

Nicotinate ester, vasodilator; high levels cause flushing, avoid mucosal contact.

Pentaerythrityl Tetraethylhexanoate

Esther emollient for a light, silky feel; heavy at high concentrations.

Cetyl Alcohol

Cetyl alcohol for emulsification/thickening; high concentration >10% may irritate.

Glyceryl Stearate Se

Emulsifier at 1–3%; oil-phase ingredient, easy emulsification, low sensitization.

Glycolic Acid

Glycolic acid for exfoliation; requires buffering at concentrations >10%, avoid combination with other acids.

Cyclodextrin

Cyclodextrin; used as a stabilizer or solubilizer to improve solubility of active ingredients and fragrances

Arginine

Arginine for moisturizing/conditioning; amino acid, high biocompatibility, often used in blends.

Oenothera Biennis Oil

Natural oil rich in GLA; supports barrier, prone to oxidation, needs antioxidants

Fragrance

Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components

Sorbitan Stearate

Non-ionic emulsifier for O/W systems; hydrophobic, requires co-emulsifiers, inert at high purity

Peg-100 Stearate

Non-ionic emulsifier, requires ionics for stability; check PEG for formaldehyde.

Salicylic Acid

Lipophilic BHA at 0.5-2%; exfoliant/sebum control, irritation/sensitization at high conc., photosensitivity (SPF needed), avoid sensitive/pregnant.

Magnesium Aluminum Silicate

Oil-absorbing powder at 5–20%; for pressed/powder makeup, high levels may feel heavy

Oleth-3 Phosphate

Mild non-ionic surfactant and emulsifier; as an Oleth derivative, ensure residual propylene oxide levels meet regulatory limits.

Hydrogenated Lecithin

Emulsifier from lecithin; stable, used in powder emulsions

Prunus Cerasus Flower Extract

Not decoded yet

Sodium Hyaluronate

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

Solum Diatomeae

Mineral diatomaceous earth for cleansing, absorption, anti-caking; fine particulate, monitor dust inhalation risk.

Soy Amino Acids

Not decoded yet

Tocopherol

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

Ethylhexylglycerin

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

Faex

Not decoded yet

Gallic Acid

Not decoded yet

Caffeine

Active ingredient, 0.1–2%; promotes circulation, irritation risk at high concentration.

Betaine

Betaine for mild moisturizing/surfactant; low concentration 1-2% common, high may irritate.

Sodium Polyacrylate

Superabsorbent resin, <1%; gels with electrolytes, ionic strength control required.

Mica

Mineral colorant for pearlescence; heavy metal screening required

Ci 19140

Acid Yellow 23 lake; for coloring and hair dyeing. High water solubility and precipitation risk, pH control required.

Ci 14700

Red azo dye restricted to hair dye products only; not for leave-on or general skin care

Xanthan Gum

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

Bht

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

Potassium Sorbate

Preservative effective below pH 6; combinable with sodium benzoate

Disodium Edta

Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy

Caprylyl Glycol

Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol

Phenoxyethanol

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

Citric Acid

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

Sodium Benzoate

Preservative booster, effective below pH 4.5; combinable with sorbates

Sodium Hydroxide

Strong base neutralizer for pH adjustment; handle with extreme care

Benzyl Benzoate

Chelating agent for stability; restricted substance, not permitted as single component or in mixtures at ≥0.1%.

Limonene

Natural fragrance solvent, EU allergen; poor photostability
