Ingredients explained

Isododecane

Synthetic hydrocarbon solvent providing dry, silky skin feel; high volatility, non-comedogenic, common in sunscreens and foundations, usage 5-30%.

Dimethicone Crosspolymer

Crosslinked silicone polymer providing silkiness and viscosity control; for hair and skin; inert but hard to biodegrade.

Dimethicone/Bis-Isobutyl PPG-20 Crosspolymer

Synthetic polymer for smooth feel and viscosity control; requires homogenization, compatible with silicones.

Coco-caprylate/Caprate

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

Myristyl Myristate

Di-C14 ester, waxy solid for thickening and conditioning; provides matte and smooth feel, low comedogenicity, good for compacts.

Dicaprylyl Carbonate

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

C10-18 triglycerides

Mixture of C10-18 triglycerides for emolliency, conditioning, and solvency; low comedogenic risk but occlusive.

Polymethylsilsesquioxane

Silicone polymer for emolliency, matte effect, and suspension; used in foundations or powder suspensions, typical usage 1-5%, smooth skin feel.

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

Light occlusive and solvent at 1–10%; non-greasy feel, suitable for oily and combination skin

Apium Graveolens Seed Extract

Parsley seed extract, antioxidant and perfuming; contains essential oils; phototoxicity risk, limit usage

Linum Usitatissimum Seed Extract

Flaxseed extract for moisture and natural aroma; contains oleic acid with moderate comedogenicity, limit levels for oily skin.

Limnanthes Alba Seed Oil

Lightweight natural oil with mineral oil-like feel; oxidizes easily, add antioxidants and control dose.

Dimethicone

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

Sorbitan trioleate

W/O non-ionic emulsifier for oil-in-water systems; moderate comedogenic risk.

Silica Dimethyl Silylate

Dimethicone modified silica for dry touch; anti-caking and oil absorption

Caprylyl Glycol

Polyol conditioner and preservative booster at 0.5–3%; emollient feel, often paired with 1,2-hexanediol

Titanium Dioxide

Physical UV filter and colorant up to 25%; nano form requires attention
