Ingredients explained

Eau

Not decoded yet

C13-15 Alkane

Mineral oil derivative as solvent and spreader; low irritation and allergen, ensure high purity free of carcinogens

Propanediol

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

Isododecane

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

Polyglyceryl-6 Polyricinoleate

Emulsifier with hydrophilic properties; castor derivative, low sensitization risk.

Mica

Mineral colorant for pearlescence; heavy metal screening required

Polymethylsilsesquioxane

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

Dimethicone

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

Trimethylsiloxysilicate

Silicate powder, oil-absorbing emollient; insoluble, high levels feel powdery.

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

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

Stearoxymethicone/dimethicone copolymer

Silicone copolymer for smooth film; occlusive, caution on oily skin

Coco-caprylate/Caprate

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

Polyglyceryl-10 dioleate

Nonionic emulsifier for dispersing oils; mind compatibility with cationics.

Disteardimonium Hectorite

Inorganic ionic clay thickener at 0.25-1%; water/oil/solvent systems, rheology control, avoid strong acids, may affect active release.

Hydrogenated lecithin

Emulsifier from lecithin; stable, used in powder emulsions

Sucrose polystearate

Sucrose polyester emulsifier, non-ionic and mild; often blended with water- or oil-soluble surfactants to tune emulsification efficiency.

Sucrose stearate

Succrose ester emulsifier/emolient with cleansing properties; HLB determines emulsion type.

Glyceryl caprylate

Mild emulsifier/deodorant at 0.5-2%; polyol ester, high humectancy, low irritancy, check cationic surfactant compatibility.

C24-28 alkyl methicone

Not decoded yet

Propylene carbonate

Inert solvent and viscosity modifier; often used as penetration enhancer, mild at low levels

Parfum

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

Glyceryl Undecylenate

Light ester emollient with silk-like, spreadable feel; common carrier for UV filters, good silicone compatibility

Xanthan Gum

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

Sodium Hydroxide

Strong base neutralizer for pH adjustment; handle with extreme care

Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil

Sunflower seed oil for emollient/occlusive; high linoleic acid, low comedogenicity.

Maltose

Maltose humectant/skin conditioner; low sweetness, masking; monitor microbial growth.

Agave Tequilana Leaf Extract

Astringent and skin conditioning, 0.1–0.5%; contains polysaccharides, suitable for combination to oily skin

Triethoxycaprylylsilane

Silane coupling agent at 0.1-0.5%; enhances inorganic filler adhesion, trace use, low toxicity, avoid direct contact with aqueous systems.

Aristotelia Chilensis Fruit Extract

Aristotelia chilensis extract; South American berry, claimed antioxidant/repair, limited public data.

Hexyl Cinnamal

Common fragrance component (jasmine/vanilla note); listed EU allergen, requires labeling at >10ppm (leave-on).

Linalool

Natural fragrance component at ≤0.05%; one of EU 26 allergens, caution for sensitive skin

CI 77891

Titanium dioxide inorganic pigment and UV filter; assess inhalation risk for nano-forms and EU restrictions

Iron Oxides (CI 77491

Not decoded yet

CI 77492

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