Ingredients explained
- Cyclopentasiloxane
- Cyclopentasiloxane for emollient/solvent; volatile silicone, smooth feel, check VOC regulations.
- Dimethicone
- Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin
- Dimethicone/Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer
- Crosslinked silicone thickener at 0.5-2%; silky/matte feel, non-comedogenic, partial oil phase incompatibility, use co-solvent/pre-emulsification.
- Vinyl Dimethicone/Methicone Silsesquioxane Crosspolymer
- Rheology-modifying silicone polymer for suspension and feel; requires silicone-compatible system
- Cetyl Ethylhexanoate
- Synthetic oil providing slip; large molecule, low penetration, non-comedogenic, suitable for dry or rough skin.
- Silica
- Silica powder at 1–10%; absorbs oil, thickens, provides matte finish, for oil-control products
- Ceresin
- Mineral wax for thickening, film-forming, and emulsion stabilization; highly occlusive, non-allergenic
- Cyclopentasiloxane
- Cyclopentasiloxane for emollient/solvent; volatile silicone, smooth feel, check VOC regulations.
- Titanium Dioxide
- Physical UV filter and colorant up to 25%; nano form requires attention
- Bis-PEG/PPG-14/14 Dimethicone
- Modified silicone emulsifier 0.5-5%; emollient/cleansing, PEG & silicone
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Fragrance
- Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components
- Caprylyl Glycol
- Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol
- Tocopheryl Acetate
- Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light
- Ethylhexylglycerin
- Mild conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–1%; reduces preservative load, smooth feel
- Ci 77492
- Iron oxide red; stable inorganic pigment, non-toxic; ensure dispersion to prevent sedimentation.
- Glyceryl Linoleate
- Glyceryl linoleate; emulsifier and emollient; oxidation-prone, requires antioxidants
- Ci 77491
- Iron oxides red; physical pigment. Coloring and photo-protective, stable and non-irritating.
- Ci 77499
- Inorganic colorant manganese dioxide used in cosmetics; restricted use component subject to regulatory limits.
- Glyceryl Arachidonate
- Biomimetic lipid, barrier repair, 1-2%; lipophilic, oxidizes easily, add antioxidants.
- Glyceryl Linolenate
- Emollient/moisturizer; potential allergen, caution in sensitive skin
- Coral Powder
- Not decoded yet
- Anthemis Nobilis Flower Water
- Chamomile water with soothing and anti-inflammatory effects; contains trace oils, may sensitize ragweed-allergic individuals.
- 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.
- Butylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant and solvent at 1–5%; aids solubilization, light feel
- Hamamelis Virginiana Water
- Hamamelis water; tannins/flavonoids for astringent and soothing; low conc, generally well-tolerated
- Alcohol
- Ethanol for solubility/drying at 5-15%; high conc. is drying/irritating, avoid lip/eye, low residue, balance with humectants.
- Water
- Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
- 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
- Potassium Sorbate
- Preservative effective below pH 6; combinable with sodium benzoate
- Hydrolyzed Collagen
- Hydrolyzed protein for film-forming and moisture; molecular weight limits penetration, check source for shellfish allergies
