What's inside

Talc

Potential contamination with asbestos (carcinogen), inhalation toxicity risk, respiratory irritation

C9-15 Fluoroalcohol Phosphate

Environmental persistence, potential toxicity, bioaccumulation, inhalation/dermal exposure risks in occupational settings

Undecane

Potential for toxicity at high doses, not intended for consumption, possible contaminants, limited safety data in foods

Caprylyl Methicone

Not approved for food use, lack of safety data for ingestion, potential for bioaccumulation

Tridecane

Potential toxicity at high exposures, may act as a respiratory irritant, possible presence as a contaminant, no nutritional value

Aluminum Stearates

Potential neurotoxic effects with excessive intake, aluminum accumulation risk, potential kidney burden

PEG-8 Laurate

Ultra-processed emulsifier, potential gut microbiome disruption (class effect), may increase intestinal permeability and low-grade inflammation (animal and small human data with other emulsifiers), potential contamination with 1,4-dioxane or ethylene oxide (ethoxylation by-products), rare hypersensitivity to PEGs, limited human data for chronic dietary intake

PEG-9

Potential skin irritation, contamination with toxic impurities (e.g., ethylene oxide, 1,4-dioxane), concerns about systemic absorption with damaged skin

Aluminum Hydroxide

Potential for localized irritation, contamination with aluminum ions which may accumulate in the body at high exposure, regulatory restrictions in food additive use in some regions

Phenethyl Benzoate

Potential skin irritation or sensitization in some individuals, not approved as food additive

Dimethicone/PEG-10/15 Crosspolymer

Potential for skin irritation, not biodegradable, environmental concerns

PEG-9 Polydimethylsiloxyethyl Dimethicone

Potential skin irritation in sensitive individuals, environmental persistence, possible contamination with impurities during manufacturing

Propylene Glycol

Mild skin irritation possible at high concentrations, rare sensitization

Alumina

Potential accumulation if consumed in excess, possible contamination with soluble aluminum compounds, overexposure risk in occupational settings

Polyhydroxy-stearic Acid

Potential for skin irritation or allergic reactions in sensitive individuals, limited data on long-term exposure, not for consumption

Water

Solvent, hydrates products, essential for biological functions

Triethylhexanoin

Improves product texture, enhances dermal absorption

Nylon-12

Improves product spreadability, absorbs oil, provides matte finish

Silica

Prevents clumping and improves texture in powdered products

Maltodextrin

Energy source, improves texture and stability in processed foods

Styrene/acrylates Copolymer

Film-forming agent, stabilizer, improves texture and durability of product formulations

Dicaprylyl Carbonate (di-n-octyl carbonate)

Skin conditioning, enhances spreadability and texture in formulations

Pentylene Glycol

Humectant, solvent, enhances skin hydration and product texture

Stearic Acid

Emulsifying agent, texture stabilizer, surfactant, energy source in diet

Caprylyl Glycol

Skin conditioning, antimicrobial preservative booster

Cassia Alata Leaf Extract

Antioxidant activity, antimicrobial effects, anti-inflammatory properties

Isododecane

Improves product texture and application, enhances spreadability

C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate

Emollient, improves skin feel and texture, enhances spreadability of formulations

Dimethicone

Reduces foam, provides skin conditioning, improves spreadability, chemically inert

Isohexadecane

Provides lightweight, non-greasy emollient properties, improves texture and spreadability in formulations

Butyloctyl Salicylate

UV protection as a sunscreen agent, emollient properties enhancing skin feel

Dicaprylyl Ether

Improves skin hydration and texture, enhances spreadability of formulations

Tocopherol

Antioxidant, protects lipids from oxidation, supports product stability

Phenoxyethanol

Effective broad-spectrum preservative, low volatility, less sensitizing than isothiazolinones

Diethylhexyl Syringylidenemalonate

Provides antioxidant protection, UV filtering properties that protect formulations from photo-degradation

Magnesium Sulfate

Electrolyte supplementation, osmotic laxative effects, muscle relaxation in topical use

Benzoic Acid

Preservative effect, antimicrobial properties, extends shelf-life of food products

Iron Oxides

Provides color pigmentation, stable and non-reactive as a dye, commonly used for safe coloring in cosmetics and food

Propylene Carbonate

Effective solvent and plasticizer, enhances formulation stability and performance

Disteardimonium Hectorite

Improves product texture and stability, prevents ingredient separation
