Formulation view O/W emulsion with C12-15 alkyl benzoate and polyglyceryl esters. Titanium dioxide and mica provide coverage; octocrylens and tocopherol antioxidant. Multiple preservatives including methylisothiazolinone derivatives. Suitable for dry skin as a makeup base. Formulator note: Rich oils and UV filters require attention to stability and even pigment dispersion, while complex preservative systems must avoid conflicts.

Ingredients explained
- Water
- Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
- C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate
- C12-15 alkyl benzoate; emollient, emulsifier, and antistatic; aids stability and smoothness, moderate low comedogenicity.
- Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate
- UVA absorber used with other filters; poor water stability and photolability, requires light stabilizers, max concentration typically 10%.
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Polyglyceryl-4 Isostearate
- Emulsifier at 1–5%; mild type, suitable for sensitive skin formulas
- Mica
- Mineral colorant for pearlescence; heavy metal screening required
- Potassium Cetyl Phosphate
- Cetyl phosphate potassium, O/W emulsifier; pH-sensitive, often requires buffering.
- Pentaerythrityl Tetraisostearate
- Mild emulsifier and emollient with cleansing function; suitable for baby and sensitive skin, low irritancy.
- Cetearyl Alcohol
- Fatty alcohol emulsifier at 1-5%; non-ionic surfactant
- Glyceryl Stearate
- Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification
- PEG-100 Stearate
- Non-ionic emulsifier, requires ionics for stability; check PEG for formaldehyde.
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Carbomer
- Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility
- Polyglyceryl-10 Myristate
- Mild emulsifier and emollient; 1-3%, suitable for O/W systems
- Potassium Sorbate
- Preservative effective below pH 6; combinable with sodium benzoate
- Chlorphenesin
- Phenolic antimicrobial; strict EU limits apply, potential allergen, careful dosing required for leave-on products.
- Sodium Dehydroacetate
- Sodium dehydroacetate, preservative <0.5%; restricted for eye, children, and lip use.
- Sodium Hydroxide
- Strong base neutralizer for pH adjustment; handle with extreme care
- Fragrance
- Fragrance; concentration must control allergen risk, label specific components
- Triethoxycaprylylsilane
- Silane coupling agent at 0.1-0.5%; enhances inorganic filler adhesion, trace use, low toxicity, avoid direct contact with aqueous systems.
- Aluminium Hydroxide
- Aluminium hydroxide for pigment dispersion and pH buffering; potential irritation at high doses, control usage
- Squalane
- Emollient from plants or synthetic; light texture
- Tocopherol
- Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light
- Tin Oxide
- Inorganic mineral pigment providing opacity and suspension; requires skin safety assessment, typically used in sunscreens or powder colorants.
- Ascorbyl Palmitate
- Ascorbyl palmitate, lipophilic Vit C ester, antioxidant; oxidizes, needs light/air protection.
- Titanium Dioxide
- Physical UV filter and colorant up to 25%; nano form requires attention
- Iron Oxides (Cl 77491
- Not decoded yet
- Cl 77492)
- Not decoded yet
