Ingredients explained

Methyl Methacrylate Crosspolymer

MMA crosspolymer for durable water-soluble film; high doses may create occlusion

Synthetic Wax

Waxy solidifier for hardness and gloss; complex mixture, not a single molecule.

Dibutyl Adipate

Light ester, solvent and emollient, fresh feel and volatility, non-comedogenic.

Coco-Caprylate/Caprate

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

Isopropyl Palmitate

Isopropyl palmitate for dry touch; prone to oxidation, needs antioxidants, low viscosity

Caprylyl Methicone

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

Caprylyl Trimethicone

Volatile silicone for dry, non-greasy feel and shine; non-comedogenic

Ethylhexyl Palmitate

Synthetic ester emollient with light skin feel; small molecule, slightly comedogenic, use cautiously for acne-prone skin, often blended with other oils.

Silica

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

Vinyl Dimethicone/Methicone Silsesquioxane Crosspolymer

Rheology-modifying silicone polymer for suspension and feel; requires silicone-compatible system

Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate

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

Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine

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

Boron Nitride

Flake-shaped inorganic filler for slip and bulk in powders; control particle size to minimize inhalation risk

Butyloctyl Salicylate

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

Ethylhexyl Triazone

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

Microcrystalline Wax

Petroleum-derived hard wax for lipsticks and ointments; provides high-melting structure, heavy feel, potentially comedogenic

Polysilicone-15

Not decoded yet

Vinyl Dimethicone

Silicone viscosity modifier at 0.5–5%; provides smooth feel, non-comedogenic

Camellia Japonica Seed Oil

Light emollient oil with refined feel; low comedogenic, suitable for most skin.

Curcuma Longa Root Extract

Turmeric root extract, contains curcumin, colorant/antioxidant; high doses may sensitize.

Melia Azadirachta Flower Extract

Plant extract, 0.1–1%; antioxidant properties, light sensitivity advised.

Melia Azadirachta Leaf Extract

Plant extract, 0.1–1%; has antibacterial properties, allergy testing advised.

Corallina Officinalis Extract

Corallina extract, polysaccharide-rich humectant/film former; algal source, batch variation.

Melia Azadirachta Bark Extract

Antibacterial and skin-protecting; active components may cause sensitization

Ocimum Sanctum Leaf Extract

Holy basil leaf extract for conditioning; complex botanical, patch test recommended for compatibility

Moringa Oleifera Seed Oil

Light emollient oil rich in oleic acid; moderate comedogenic risk.

Coccinia Indica Fruit Extract

Coccinia indica fruit extract for skin conditioning; plant-derived, low irritation.

Solanum Melongena Fruit Extract

Eggplant fruit extract for skin conditioning; watch for batch consistency and potential allergenicity.

Amber Powder

Amber mineral powder used as deodorant or filler; chemically stable, very low allergen risk

Aloe Barbadensis Flower Extract

Extract for basic emollience; usually low-level, check extract solvent residues

Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil

Common in dry/damaged hair; superior penetration vs mineral oils, low comedogenic risk, poor oxidative stability.

Artemisia Capillaris Extract

Traditional herb extract used for soothing/conditioning; batch variability and allergen risk need monitoring

Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract

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

Camellia Sinensis Seed Oil

Camellia seed oil; rich in vitamin E/oleic acid, emollient/antioxidant, light texture.

Hyaluronic Acid

High-water-binding humectant at 0.1-1%; high-MW for surface film, low-MW for dermal potential, check cationic compatibility.

Bambusa Vulgaris Extract

Bamboo extract for soothing and conditioning; polyphenol-rich, limit concentration to minimize irritation.

Centella Asiatica Extract

Centella asiatica extract for soothing/repair; low irritation, common in sensitive skin products.

Morinda Citrifolia Extract

Herbal extract with astringent properties; used for antioxidant benefits

Vigna Radiata Seed Extract

Seed extract with proteins and polyphenols for hydration and conditioning.

Polyglyceryl-4 Diisostearate/Polyhydroxystearate/Sebacate

Composite emulsifier for stable O/W systems, provides mild cleansing.

Water

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

1,2-Hexanediol

Polyol solvent and preservative booster at 1–5%; light feel, can replace some traditional preservatives

Panthenol

Panthenol (vitamin B5) at 1–5%; moisturizing and reparative, supports barrier recovery

Butylene Glycol

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

Propanediol

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

Glycerin

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

Methylpropanediol

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