Ingredients explained

Aqua

Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical

Diisopropyl Sebacate

Low-viscosity, high-flash-point ester; excellent spreadability, non-greasy feel

Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate

UVA absorber used with other filters; poor water stability and photolability, requires light stabilizers, max concentration typically 10%.

Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate

Novel UVB absorber at 0.2-1.5%; narrow band, requires combination, high photostability, verify regional limits, low irritation.

Glycerin

Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives

Methylene Bis-Benzotriazolyl Tetramethylbutylphenol [Nano]

Nanoclearance UV stabilizer (UV 378); high stability, combines well, verify nano-particle regulatory status.

Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine

UV-B absorber, photostable; high purity and low bioaccumulation, check for impurities.

Methylpropanediol

Diol solvent and extraction carrier; enhances solubility of actives, low irritation profile.

Phenylbenzimidazole Sulfonic Acid

UV absorber and light stabilizer; compliant use required, common in sunscreens

Cetearyl Alcohol

Fatty alcohol emulsifier at 1-5%; non-ionic surfactant

Phosphate Buffered Saline

Buffered saline as solvent; aqueous phase needs preservative.

Hdi/Trimethylol Hexyllactone Crosspolymer

Hydrophobic wax for anti-caking; improves slip in powders and cushions

Butylene Glycol

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

Sodium Hydroxide

Strong base neutralizer for pH adjustment; handle with extreme care

Ethylhexyl Triazone

UVB absorber with good photostability; formulated with other filters, typical concentration 3-5%, check compatibility with other ingredients.

Glyceryl Stearate

Emulsifier at 1-3%; may require acid to prevent saponification

Decyl Glucoside

Mild alkyl glucoside, biodegradable; foam stabilizer, thickens with fatty alcohols, low allergenicity.

Isodecyl Neopentanoate

Volatile dry ester for make-up/emulsions; fast-drying, non-greasy, seal to prevent weight loss.

Lauryl Lactate

Lauric lactate ester; mild emollient and emulsifier; suitable for all skin types, low allergenicity.

Carbomer

Gelling thickener requiring neutralization; watch out for ion compatibility

Ceteth-10 Phosphate

Sodium/salt of ceteth-10 phosphate, gentle surfactant/emulsifier for rinse-off products; test compatibility with cationics.

Dicetyl Phosphate

Emulsifier and auxiliary surfactant for stable lotions; used at low levels in creams.

Chlorphenesin

Phenolic antimicrobial; strict EU limits apply, potential allergen, careful dosing required for leave-on products.

Ethylhexylglycerin

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

Arginine

Arginine for moisturizing/conditioning; amino acid, high biocompatibility, often used in blends.

Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer

Crosspolymer for thickening/film; needs neutralization to pH 7-8 to hydrate, check ion strength.

Parfum

Fragrance for scent; may contain allergens, caution for sensitive skin, full labeling required.

Ci 77492

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

Caprylhydroxamic Acid

Chelating agent to stabilize metal ions; often paired with antioxidants for system stability, used at low levels

Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate

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

Disodium EDTA

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

Thioctic Acid

Alpha-lipoic acid; potent antioxidant; poor water solubility, often used as ester derivatives

C12-13 Alkyl Glyceryl Hydrolyzed Hyaluronate

Decarboxy Carnosine Hcl

Not decoded yet

O-Cymen-5-Ol

Antioxidant and antimicrobial; low levels for preservation; irritating at high concentrations, restricted use.

Sodium PCA

Sodium PCA, NMF component, 1-10% humectant; salty/tacky at high levels.

Silica

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

Sodium Lactate

Sodium lactate for moisturizing and exfoliation; pH buffering agent

Propylene Glycol

Polyol humectant at 3-10%; hygroscopic, slight tackiness, mild irritation at high conc., verify preservative efficacy, no allergen.

Ci 77491

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

Disodium Acetyl Glucosamine Phosphate

Not decoded yet

Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer-2

Not decoded yet

Xanthan Gum

Natural thickener at 0.1–1%; provides gel texture, pH-stable, requires full hydration

Polysorbate 20

Non-ionic emulsifier and cleansing surfactant; contains PEG, control microbial load.

BHT

Lipophilic antioxidant at 0.01-0.05%; ineffective with acidic systems, label-sensitive, check regulatory limits as preservative alternative.

Lecithin

Phospholipid emulsifier at 1-5%; biocompatible, moisturizing/antioxidant, prone to oxidation (add TBHQ), mild for sensitive skin.

Glutathione

Antioxidant and brightening agent; unstable, requires antioxidants and protection from light.

Alcohol Denat

Denatured ethanol; solvent, penetration enhancer, and quick-dry agent; high % may compromise barrier in dry skin.

Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1

Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 for repair; requires lipid carrier, unstable in aqueous phase

Polyquaternium-7

Not decoded yet

Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7

Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 boosts collagen; use 0.1–1%, formulate with lipid carriers

Pyridoxine Hcl

Vitamin B6 HCl; trace skin/hair conditioning/antiox; very mild, high-conc pigmentation debate

Acetyl Cysteine

Cysteine derivative antioxidant and conditioner; check pH and metal ion compatibility.

Lysine Hcl

Lysine HCl, amino acid for hair and skin conditioning, reduces protein loss

Valine

Amino acid humectant, common in amino acid cleansers and sprays; mild, suitable for all skin types

Isoleucine

Amino acid for hair and skin conditioning and antistatic purposes; often blended; check taste if high.
