Ingredients explained

Avobenzone

Organic UV filter for UVB and part of UVA-I; poor photostability, used in synergy with other filters.

Homosalate

UVB sunscreen agent, often combined with others; stable but migratory; ensure regulatory compliance.

Octisalate

Octyloleate, ester solvent and emollient; used in sunscreens or diluting oils, light texture

Water

Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth

Butyloctyl Salicylate

Oil-soluble exfoliating emollient; avoid for aspirin-sensitive users and high-concentration leave-on products

Dipropylene Glycol

Solvent for essential oils; better humectancy than PEG

Methyl Trimethicone

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

Biosaccharide Gum-4

Moisturizing film-former enhancing water retention; bio-fermented origin, low sensitization risk

Caprylyl Methicone

Volatile silicone, fresh feel, does not absorb oil, used in foundations and cushions.

Propanediol

Polyol solvent at 1–5%; light feel, aids solubilization, propylene glycol alternative

Bis-Ethylhexyl Hydroxydimethoxy Benzylmalonate

Not decoded yet

Betaine

Betaine for mild moisturizing/surfactant; low concentration 1-2% common, high may irritate.

Acrylates Copolymer

Acrylate synthetic polymer for film forming and antistatic; breathable film, control dosage carefully

Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltaurate/Vp Copolymer

Cationic polymer providing suspension, thickening, and conditioning; often paired with anionic thickening systems, low usage, imparts slip.

Hydroxyacetophenone

Hydroxyacetophenone as antioxidant; often boosts Vitamin C, works in acidic pH.

Phenoxyethanol

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

Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein/Pvp Crosspolymer

Film former and hair conditioner complex for styling and protection; wheat protein may trigger allergies.

Dibutyl Lauroyl Glutamide

Butyl lauroyl glutamide; film-forming agent for hair and skin conditioning, common in haircare.

Dibutyl Ethylhexanoyl Glutamide

Amide-based conditioning agent for hair luster; synthetic surfactant

Citrus Aurantium Dulcis Peel Oil

Sweet orange peel essential oil, citrus aroma; photosensitive, be careful in daytime; irritating at high levels.

Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate

Dipotassium glycyrrhizinate for moisturizing/soothing; inhibits 5-LOX, water-soluble, for sensitive skin.

Carbomer

Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility

Tocopheryl Acetate

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

Aminomethyl Propanol

pH buffer at 0.1–1%; irritating at high levels, avoid direct mixing with strong acids/bases

Butylene Glycol

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

Hippophae Rhamnoides Fruit Extract

Sea buckthorn fruit extract for skin conditioning; stable at low levels, check phototoxicity at high doses.

Disodium Edta

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

Pentylene Glycol

Polyol humectant at 1-3%; low irritancy, suitable for sensitive skin

Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract

Aloe vera leaf extract for soothing and humectant; monitor polysaccharide level and endotoxins

Silica

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

Bioflavonoids

Plant antioxidant blend for soothing and skin protection

Potassium Sorbate

Preservative effective below pH 6; combinable with sodium benzoate

Hydroxyphenyl Propamidobenzoic Acid

Bioactive marker in Evening Primrose Oil, antioxidant and soothing; used at low levels

Brassica Oleracea Italica Extract

Cavolo nero extract with polyphenols, astringent conditioner; botanical, potential pigment staining

Ethylhexylglycerin

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

Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract

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

Ascorbyl Palmitate

Ascorbyl palmitate, lipophilic Vit C ester, antioxidant; oxidizes, needs light/air protection.
