What's inside

Laureth-4

Potential skin irritation and sensitization, contamination risk from polyethylene glycol impurities (e.g., 1,4-dioxane), processing byproduct residues

Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein/PVP Crosspolymer

Potential allergenicity (wheat/gluten), presence of synthetic polymer (PVP), unknown effects from crosslinked forms, possible gut irritation or malabsorption risks

Triethoxycaprylylsilane (Octyltriethoxysilane)

Not approved for food use, limited oral safety data, potential skin and eye irritation, synthetic ultra-processed additive, releases ethanol on hydrolysis

Polydiethylsiloxane

Potential inhalation toxicity in industrial use, bioaccumulation concerns at high doses, not intended for direct consumption in large amounts

Diethylhexyl Succinate

Possible skin irritation or allergic reaction in sensitive individuals, inhalation safety not well-studied

Neopentyl Glycol Diheptanoate

Potential skin irritation

Methyl Trimethicone

Potential skin irritation in sensitive individuals, environmental persistence

Lauryl PEG-9 Polydimethylsiloxyethyl Dimethicone

Possible skin irritation, potential for bioaccumulation, concerns related to PEG derivatives including impurities like ethylene oxide or 1,4-dioxane, limited oral toxicity data

Dimethicone Silylate

Potential skin irritation in sensitive individuals, environmental concerns related to silicone persistence

Polyhydroxystearic Acid

Potential for skin irritation, possible gut irritation if ingested, ultra-processed, limited long-term oral safety data

Dimethicone/PEG-10/15 Crosspolymer

Potential for skin irritation, not biodegradable, environmental concerns

Water

Hydration, solvent for active ingredients, supports biological functions

Isononyl Isononanoate

Isononyl Isononanoate is an ester of isononanoic acid and isononyl alcohol. It is commonly used in cosmetic and personal care products as an emollient, helping to soften and smooth the skin. Though primarily found in skincare formulations, it may occasionally be present in foods in trace amounts as part of cosmetic crossover. It is generally regarded as safe for use in cosmetics but lacks nutritional value or significant effects in food products.

Silica

Inhalation of fine silica dust can cause respiratory irritation and silicosis; typical dietary exposure low risk

Isostearic Acid

Emollient properties, improves skin texture, stabilizes formulations

Dimethicone Crosspolymer-3

Enhances skin texture, provides a smooth feel, stabilizes formulations, non-comedogenic

Dipentaerythrityl Tri-Polyhydroxystearate

Emollient properties, improves skin feel and product texture

Caprylyl Glycol

Iron Oxides (CI 77491, 77492, 77499)

Stable, non-toxic pigments providing color in cosmetics and some food applications

Dimethicone

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

Butyloctyl Salicylate

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

C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate

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

Butylene Glycol

Improves texture and absorption of products, acts as a humectant to retain moisture

Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate

UVB radiation absorption, protects skin from UV damage

Cetyl PEG/PPG-10/1 Dimethicone

Provides skin and hair conditioning, improves texture and spreadability of formulations

Phenoxyethanol

Effective broad-spectrum preservative, low volatility, good stability
