Ingredients explained
- Water
- Primary solvent and base; requires preservative system to prevent microbial growth
- Cyclomethicone
- Volatile silicone for light feel; contains D4 restricted by EU, must be <0.1% after 2026
- BG
- Butylene glycol; humectant and solvent. Low irritancy, common in water-in-oil and oil-in-water formulas.
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Paraffin
- Paraffin wax for occlusion/viscosity control; inert/safe, may affect breathability
- Dimethicone
- Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin
- Diphenylsiloxy Phenyl Trimethicone
- Phenyl trimethicone for anti-foaming and slip; silicone-based, silky feel
- Trehalose
- Trehalose; mild humectant and stabilizer for proteins/actives; hygroscopic, light skin feel.
- Myristyl Myristate
- Di-C14 ester, waxy solid for thickening and conditioning; provides matte and smooth feel, low comedogenicity, good for compacts.
- Triethylhexanoin
- Light ester for non-greasy feel and fragrance; low allergenicity, high levels can act as solvent
- Sodium Chloride
- Salt for gel viscosity control; used as precipitant in soaps
- PEG/PPG-14/7 Dimethyl Ether
- Solvent and skin conditioning agent improving texture; contains PEG structure for solubilization
- Polyquaternium-51
- Not decoded yet
- Lavender Oil
- Lavender essential oil for fragrance; high allergen rate, concentration control needed.
- Tencha Extract
- Not decoded yet
- Fermented Soybean Extract
- Not decoded yet
- PEG-10 Dimethicone
- Modified silicone for silky feel and shine; PEG structure aids O/W emulsification, used in hair and skin care.
- Crosspolymer
- Generic crosspolymer name; specific functions depend on monomer structure such as thickening or film formation, requires full INCI name.
- Microcrystalline Wax
- Petroleum-derived hard wax for lipsticks and ointments; provides high-melting structure, heavy feel, potentially comedogenic
- ) Crosspolymer
- Data error: key contains parenthesis and lacks full chemical name; cannot assess function or safety.
- BHT
- Lipophilic antioxidant at 0.01-0.05%; ineffective with acidic systems, label-sensitive, check regulatory limits as preservative alternative.
- EDTA 2Na
- Chelating agent that enhances preservative efficacy and stabilizes formulations; usage must be controlled to prevent metal ion interference.
- Ethanol
- Fast-evaporating solvent and enhancer; drying feel, high concentrations require irritation assessment.
- DPG
- Diethylenglycol butyl ether; humectant and solvent; potential allergen, test on sensitive skin.
- Tocopherol
- Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light
- Ethyl Paraben
- Not decoded yet
- Methyl Paraben
- Effective water-soluble preservative; generally safe at low concentrations, may cause sensitivity in susceptible individuals.
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
