Ingredients explained
- Polybutene
- Polybutene for film forming and thickening; high-viscosity inert polymer used in setting sprays or gels.
- Trimethylolpropane Triisostearate
- Triester emollient for rich moisturization and film; non-volatile, low comedogenicity
- Hydrogenated Polydecene
- Hydrogenated polydecene, light mineral oil alternative, low comedogenic; silky, non-greasy.
- Polyethylene
- Plastic polymer particles for abrasion or film; check EU ban on microplastics in rinse-off products, flush-off only
- Hydroxystearic Acid
- 羟基硬脂酸,多元醇型乳化剂,可增强乳化稳定性,具一定保湿与成膜性
- Stearalkonium Hectorite
- Inorganic clay gellant with silky feel; must disperse well, high local dose can irritate.
- Propylene Carbonate
- Inert solvent and viscosity modifier; often used as penetration enhancer, mild at low levels
- Polyglyceryl-3 Diisostearate
- Mild emulsifier for low-foam systems; suitable for sensitive skin.
- Sucrose Tetrastearate Triacetate
- Sucrose ester surfactant with emulsifying and emollient properties; suitable for O/W systems with moderate HLB.
- Flavor
- Food-grade flavoring; verify cosmetic compliance and allergen content if used in skincare.
- Tocopherol
- Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light
- Dicalcium Phosphate
- Abrasive/bulking agent for teeth; particle size affects cleaning power
- Carthamus Tinctorius Seed Oil
- Natural seed oil rich in linoleic acid; moisturizing, prone to oxidation, needs antioxidants
- Ascorbyl Palmitate
- Ascorbyl palmitate, lipophilic Vit C ester, antioxidant; oxidizes, needs light/air protection.
- Oryza Sativa Bran Wax
- Rice bran wax for conditioning and film formation; hydrophobic, low comedogenicity.
- Psidium Guajava Fruit Extract
- Botanical extract with astringent and skin conditioning properties
- Butyrospermum Parkii Butter Extract
