Ingredients explained
- Cyclopentasiloxane
- Cyclopentasiloxane for emollient/solvent; volatile silicone, smooth feel, check VOC regulations.
- Aqua
- Solvent, main base; microbial control is critical
- Alcohol
- Ethanol for solubility/drying at 5-15%; high conc. is drying/irritating, avoid lip/eye, low residue, balance with humectants.
- Trimethylsiloxysilicate
- Silicate powder, oil-absorbing emollient; insoluble, high levels feel powdery.
- Polyurethane-35
- Not decoded yet
- PEG-9 Polydimethylsiloxyethyl Dimethicone
- PEG-modified silicone with emulsifying and conditioning properties; ensure low dioxane levels in finished goods.
- Phenyl Trimethicone
- Aromatic modified silicone for high gloss and occlusion; inert, non-volatile, may leave surface residue
- Glycerin
- Workhorse humectant at 3–10%; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives
- Silica
- Silica powder at 1–10%; absorbs oil, thickens, provides matte finish, for oil-control products
- Disteardimonium Hectorite
- Inorganic ionic clay thickener at 0.25-1%; water/oil/solvent systems, rheology control, avoid strong acids, may affect active release.
- Sodium Myristoyl Glutamate
- Mild amino acid surfactant for cleansing; low foaming, gentle
- Glyceryl Undecyl Dimethicone
- Silicone ester; excellent emollient and slip, hydrophobic, high usage may be comedogenic
- 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
- VP/VA Copolymer
- VA/VP copolymer film former; provides hair fixing; avoid direct contact with eyes or mucous membranes.
- Tetrasodium EDTA
- Chelator removing metal ions to enhance antioxidant and preservative efficacy; very low usage, typically 0.05-0.1%, no direct skincare function.
- Parfum
- Fragrance for scent; may contain allergens, caution for sensitive skin, full labeling required.
- Aluminum Hydroxide
- Aluminum hydroxide for emollient/thickening; opacifier, used in antiperspirants, particulate risk.
- Linalool
- Natural fragrance component at ≤0.05%; one of EU 26 allergens, caution for sensitive skin
- Limonene
- Natural fragrance solvent, EU allergen; poor photostability
- Citronellol
- Citronellol for fragrance; EU 26 allergen, labeling required above 0.001%.
- BHT
- Lipophilic antioxidant at 0.01-0.05%; ineffective with acidic systems, label-sensitive, check regulatory limits as preservative alternative.
- Tocopherol
- Natural antioxidant (vitamin E) at 0.1–1%; prone to oxidation, store protected from light
- Ci 19140 (Yellow 5
- Not decoded yet
- Yellow 5 Lake)
- Not decoded yet
- Ci 42090
- Acid Blue 9 lake; for coloring and brow tints. Non-permanent hair dye, watch for lake precipitation and batch shade variance.
- Ci 77007
- Mica-based colorant, restricted use; mineral origin, check heavy metal impurities compliance
- Ci 77163
- Titanium dioxide; physical UV filter and white pigment; not absorbed; potential for rare sensitivity, patch test.
- Ci 77491
- Iron oxides red; physical pigment. Coloring and photo-protective, stable and non-irritating.
- Ci 77492
- Iron oxide red; stable inorganic pigment, non-toxic; ensure dispersion to prevent sedimentation.
- Ci 77499
- Inorganic colorant manganese dioxide used in cosmetics; restricted use component subject to regulatory limits.
- Ci 77891
- Titanium dioxide inorganic pigment and UV filter; assess inhalation risk for nano-forms and EU restrictions
