Ingredients explained
- Water
- Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
- Propylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant at 3-10%; hygroscopic, slight tackiness, mild irritation at high conc., verify preservative efficacy, no allergen.
- Carbomer
- Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility
- Triethanolamine
- Triethanolamine for buffering; restricted, limit concentration to avoid high pH and irritation
- Methylparaben
- Preservative, narrow spectrum; often combined, check allergen risk and regulatory limits.
- Hydroxyethylcellulose
- Water-soluble cellulose ether for thickening and suspension stabilization; sensitive to ions, electrolytes reduce viscosity, use at pH 7-8.
- Ethylhexylglycerin
- Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel
- Disodium EDTA
- Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy
- Caprylhydroxamic Acid
- Chelating agent to stabilize metal ions; often paired with antioxidants for system stability, used at low levels
- Sodium Polyacrylate
- Superabsorbent resin, <1%; gels with electrolytes, ionic strength control required.
- PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil
- Solubilizer and emulsifier for oil-soluble ingredients; high concentrations may cause contact dermatitis in sensitive skin.
- Aroma
- Blended fragrance; may contain EU-listed allergens, check for sensitizers in sensitive individuals.
- Corn Starch Modified
- Modified corn starch, absorbent/film former; distinguish food/cosmetic grade, control Aw for stability.
- Haematococcus Pluvialis Extract
- Haematococcus pluvialis extract rich in astaxanthin; potent antioxidant; used in anti-aging and photoprotection formulas.
- Astaxanthin
- Potent lipophilic antioxidant from algae; effective at trace levels (0.001-0.01%), prone to photodegradation, requires encapsulation or protection.
- Sodium Ascorbate
- Sodium ascorbate; water-soluble vitamin C form, stable antioxidant. Mild at low conc., may irritate at high conc.
- Ascorbic Acid
- Vitamin C, potent antioxidant requiring acidic environment for stability; oxidizes and discolors easily, needs light and air protection, concentration 1-10%, pure L-ascorbic acid is more irritating.
- Silica
- Silica powder at 1–10%; absorbs oil, thickens, provides matte finish, for oil-control products
