Formulation view Anhydrous cosmetic powder based on trisiloxanes and silicones, reinforced with film-forming copolymers and mineral pigments. Offers matte longevity and strong adhesion for eye makeup. Formulator's note: Hydrophobic polymers ensure water and oil resistance, but high pigment loading requires balancing texture coverage to prevent creasing.

Ingredients explained
- Trisiloxane
- Used as anti-foaming and lubricant; provides silkiness, used at low levels.
- Isododecane
- Synthetic hydrocarbon solvent providing dry, silky skin feel; high volatility, non-comedogenic, common in sunscreens and foundations, usage 5-30%.
- Acrylates/Polytrimethylsiloxymethacrylate Copolymer
- Crosslinked silicone polymer; film former for matte finish and longevity in makeup.
- Mica
- Mineral colorant for pearlescence; heavy metal screening required
- Dimethicone
- Silicone occlusive at 1–5%; provides smooth feel, non-penetrating, suitable for sensitive skin
- Polyglyceryl-2 Sesquiisostearate
- Natural-derived emulsifier; gentle but often requires co-emulsifiers for stability
- Synthetic Fluorphlogopite
- Mica filler at 1-10%; luster/thickening, inert, verify mineral purity, no public comedogenic data.
- Silica
- Silica powder at 1–10%; absorbs oil, thickens, provides matte finish, for oil-control products
- Crosspolymer
- Generic crosspolymer name; specific functions depend on monomer structure such as thickening or film formation, requires full INCI name.
- Polybutene
- Polybutene for film forming and thickening; high-viscosity inert polymer used in setting sprays or gels.
- Phenoxyethanol
- Broad-spectrum preservative at ≤1%; may irritate sensitive eye areas, often paired with ethylhexylglycerin
- Propylene Carbonate
- Inert solvent and viscosity modifier; often used as penetration enhancer, mild at low levels
- Calcium Sodium Borosilicate
- Fluorphlogopite; plate-like filler and thickener. For powders and creams, improves texture and coverage.
- Silica
- Silica powder at 1–10%; absorbs oil, thickens, provides matte finish, for oil-control products
- Isoceteth-10
- Not decoded yet
- Tinoxide Silylate
- Not decoded yet
- Disteardimonium Hectorite
- Inorganic ionic clay thickener at 0.25-1%; water/oil/solvent systems, rheology control, avoid strong acids, may affect active release.
- Dimethicone/Vinyl Dimethicone
- Not decoded yet
