Ingredients explained

Aqua/Water/Eau

Water as solvent/base; main ingredient, microbial control needed, paired with preservatives.

Dicaprylyl Carbonate

Light emollient solvent at 5–15%; mineral oil-free, refreshing feel, low sensitization.

C10-13 Alkane

C10-13 alkane. Light solvent. Check compliance with EU Annex II entry 875.

Methyl Methacrylate Crosspolymer

MMA crosspolymer for durable water-soluble film; high doses may create occlusion

Alcohol

Ethanol for solubility/drying at 5-15%; high conc. is drying/irritating, avoid lip/eye, low residue, balance with humectants.

Butylene Glycol

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

C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate

C12-15 alkyl benzoate; emollient, emulsifier, and antistatic; aids stability and smoothness, moderate low comedogenicity.

Cetyl PEG/PPG-10/1 Dimethicone

Silicone surfactant, smooth and mild; regulates rheology and adds antistatic benefits

Dimethicone

Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin

Titanium Dioxide/ Dioxyde De Titane

Not decoded yet

Sodium Chloride

Salt for gel viscosity control; used as precipitant in soaps

Coco-Caprylate/Caprate

Lightweight mid-chain ester, quick spreading, suitable for oily skin, non-comedogenic.

Methyl Trimethicone

Methyl trimethicone, light volatile silicone; non-comedogenic, good powder compatibility.

Polyglyceryl-3 Polydimethylsiloxyethyl Dimethicone

Water-soluble silicone conditioning agent providing smooth, non-greasy feel; suitable for both hair and skin

Aluminum Hydroxide

Aluminum hydroxide for emollient/thickening; opacifier, used in antiperspirants, particulate risk.

Acrylates/Dimethicone Copolymer

Silicone copolymer for anti-caking and film formation, gives non-greasy slip.

Bambusa Arundinacea Stem Extract

Bamboo stem extract; low-concentration skin conditioner, no significant irritancy data.

Parfum/Fragrance

Blended fragrance for odor; contains 26 restricted allergens, use caution in sensitive/child/eye products, verify compliance.

Stearalkonium Hectorite

Inorganic clay gellant with silky feel; must disperse well, high local dose can irritate.

Stearic Acid

Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel

Synthetic Fluorphlogopite

Mica filler at 1-10%; luster/thickening, inert, verify mineral purity, no public comedogenic data.

Ethylhexylglycerin

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

Tocopheryl Acetate

Vitamin E derivative antioxidant at 0.1–1%; more stable than tocopherol, store protected from light

Propylene Carbonate

Inert solvent and viscosity modifier; often used as penetration enhancer, mild at low levels

Disodium EDTA

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

Hydroxyethyl Urea

Potent humectant and conditioner; high penetration, used for skin hydration and hair care

Sodium Lauroyl Glutamate

Amino acid surfactant, gentle and suitable for sensitive skin; moderate cleansing power.

Chenopodium Quinoa Seed Extract

Quinoa seed extract, protein/polypeptide conditioner; water-soluble, check charge interactions with actives.

Lysine

Amino acid conditioner for anti-static hair care; low irritation at typical cosmetic concentrations.

Magnesium Chloride

Inorganic salt for thickening and pH adjustment; 0.1-1%, avoid calcium ions

Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract

Green tea extract for antioxidant/astringent; contains caffeine, possible irritation in sensitive skin.

Phenoxyethanol

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

Lapsana Communis Flower/Leaf/Stem Extract

Lapsana communis extract. Soothing conditioning. Follow manufacturer data for concentration.

Algin

Seaweed-derived thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, mind calcium ion compatibility

Acacia Senegal Gum

Natural film-former and fragrance agent; used for viscosity or film, check purity for allergens

Sodium Benzoate

Preservative booster, effective below pH 4.5; combinable with sorbates

Mica

Mineral colorant for pearlescence; heavy metal screening required

Silica

Silica powder at 1–10%; absorbs oil, thickens, provides matte finish, for oil-control products

Ci 77891/Titanium Dioxide

Inorganic physical sunscreen and white colorant; large particles and inert; may look chalky at high levels.

Ci 77491

Iron oxides red; physical pigment. Coloring and photo-protective, stable and non-irritating.

Ci 77492

Iron oxide red; stable inorganic pigment, non-toxic; ensure dispersion to prevent sedimentation.

Ci 77499/Iron Oxides

Iron oxide black, inorganic pigment for color or coverage; inert and safe, requires fine grinding for texture
