Ingredients explained
- Water
- Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
- Cyclopentasiloxane
- Cyclopentasiloxane for emollient/solvent; volatile silicone, smooth feel, check VOC regulations.
- Polymethylsilsesquioxane
- Silicone polymer for emolliency, matte effect, and suspension; used in foundations or powder suspensions, typical usage 1-5%, smooth skin feel.
- Butylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel
- Dimethicone
- Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin
- Phenyl Trimethicone
- Aromatic modified silicone for high gloss and occlusion; inert, non-volatile, may leave surface residue
- PEG-10 Dimethicone
- Modified silicone for silky feel and shine; PEG structure aids O/W emulsification, used in hair and skin care.
- Boron Nitride
- Flake-shaped inorganic filler for slip and bulk in powders; control particle size to minimize inhalation risk
- Caprylyl Methicone
- Volatile silicone, fresh feel, does not absorb oil, used in foundations and cushions.
- Isononyl Isononanoate
- Light, low-viscosity ester emollient; excellent spreadability, good for gels and light lotions
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Dimethicone Crosspolymer
- Crosslinked silicone polymer providing silkiness and viscosity control; for hair and skin; inert but hard to biodegrade.
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Phenethyl Alcohol
- Alcohol with preservative and fragrance properties; 0.5-1%, floral scent, can replace some preservatives
- Sodium Chloride
- Salt for gel viscosity control; used as precipitant in soaps
- Sodium Carrageenan
- Seaweed-derived thickener and stabilizer, 0.5-1.5% adjusts viscosity; sensitive to ions, test compatibility with cationic surfactants.
- Sea Salt
- Sea salt for exfoliation/minerals; particle size matters, high ionic strength when dissolved, check compatibility.
- Disteardimonium Hectorite
- Inorganic ionic clay thickener at 0.25-1%; water/oil/solvent systems, rheology control, avoid strong acids, may affect active release.
- Tocopheryl Acetate
- Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light
- 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
- Triethoxycaprylylsilane
- Silane coupling agent at 0.1-0.5%; enhances inorganic filler adhesion, trace use, low toxicity, avoid direct contact with aqueous systems.
- Titanium Dioxide/Ci 77891
- Efficient physical UV filter; nano-forms have inhalation risk, strictly banned in aerosols; non-comedogenic
- Iron Oxides (Ci 77491
- Not decoded yet
- Ci 77492
- Iron oxide red; stable inorganic pigment, non-toxic; ensure dispersion to prevent sedimentation.
- Ci77499)
- Not decoded yet
