Ingredients explained
- Aqua/Water
- Solvent, formulation base; requires preservation, pure water is microbially prone.
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Prunus Armeniaca Kernel Oil / Apricot Kernel Oil
- Apricot kernel oil, plant-based lightweight emollient; moderate comedogenicity, evaluate usage for oily acne-prone skin, potential allergens.
- Alcohol Denat
- Denatured ethanol; solvent, penetration enhancer, and quick-dry agent; high % may compromise barrier in dry skin.
- Dimethicone
- Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin
- Hydroxypropyl Tetrahydropyrantriol
- Antioxidant and skin conditioning agent; effective at low levels, test for sensitivity.
- Propanediol
- Polyol solvent at 1–5%; light feel, aids solubilization, propylene glycol alternative
- Propylene Glycol
- Polyol humectant at 3-10%; hygroscopic, slight tackiness, mild irritation at high conc., verify preservative efficacy, no allergen.
- Isononyl Isononanoate
- Light, low-viscosity ester emollient; excellent spreadability, good for gels and light lotions
- Zea Mays Starch / Corn Starch
- Lamellar starch for matte oil absorption; biodegradable, requires preservative
- Hydroxyethylpiperazine Ethane Sulfonic Acid
- Non-ionic buffer to adjust pH around 5.5; commonly used at 0.1–0.5%
- Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltaurate/Steareth-25 Methacrylate Crosspolymer
- Not decoded yet
- Ammonium Polyacryldimethyltauramide/Ammonium Polyacryloyldimethyl Taurate
- Polyamido-polyamine copolymer, conditioning and chelating agent; water-soluble, non-volatile.
- C13-14 Isoparaffin
- Light hydrocarbon solvent providing emolliency and solubility; non-allergenic, note occlusive nature
- Caffeine
- Active ingredient, 0.1–2%; promotes circulation, irritation risk at high concentration.
- Caprylyl Glycol
- Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol
- Ci 42090/Blue 1
- Not decoded yet
- Citric Acid
- Buffer and chelator at 0.1–2%; adjusts pH, may irritate sensitive skin at low pH
- Dextrin
- Polymer thickener and binder from starch fermentation; biodegradable, hygroscopic, may affect powder flow
- Dimethiconol
- Dimethiconol; silicone emollient providing silky feel and reducing friction; moderate comedogenicity, avoid excess.
- Disodium EDTA
- Chelating agent at 0.05–0.5%; sequesters metal ions for stability, boosts preservative efficacy
- Eperua Falcata Bark Extract
- Eperua falcata bark extract, skin protectant; alkaloid content, high batch variability, needs stabilization
- Laureth-7
- Mild non-ionic surfactant for emulsification and solubilization; biodegradable
- Methyldihydrojasmonate
- Methyl dihydrojasmonate, jasmine accord; synthetic fragrance, potential allergen.
- Pentaerythrityl Tetra-Di-T-Butyl Hydroxyhydrocinnamate
- High-efficiency lipid-soluble antioxidant preventing oil rancidity; very low usage, typically 0.05-0.1%, ensure even distribution, avoid metal-catalyzed oxidation.
- Perlite
- Inorganic porous material used as an absorbent and bulking agent; avoid dust inhalation.
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Poloxamer 338
- Not decoded yet
- Polyacrylamide
- Film former and thickener for slip and feel; acrylamide monomer residue risk, strict QC required, restriction III/66
- Silica
- Silica powder at 1–10%; absorbs oil, thickens, provides matte finish, for oil-control products
- Silica Silylate
- Silylate silica for anticaking, defoaming, emulsion stabilization, film-forming; improves powder flow/texture
- Sodium Acrylates Crosspolymer-2
- Not decoded yet
- Sodium Hyaluronate
- Potent humectant at 0.1–2%; different MW for penetration depth, high levels may draw moisture
- Parfum/Fragrance
- Blended fragrance for odor; contains 26 restricted allergens, use caution in sensitive/child/eye products, verify compliance.
