What's inside

Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil

High omega-6 content, oxidation instability, potential for rancidity if improperly stored

Cyclopentasiloxane

Not approved for ingestion, potential bioaccumulation, environmental concerns, possible endocrine disruption

BHT

Potential for irritation, possible endocrine disruption seen in animal studies, concerns over long-term toxicity though human evidence is limited

PEG-8

Potential for contamination with ethylene oxide and 1,4-dioxane, skin irritation in sensitive individuals

Fragrance (Parfum)

Sensitization and allergic contact dermatitis, respiratory irritation, lack of transparency in composition

Steareth-100

Synthetic origin, possible contamination with 1,4-dioxane, ultra-processed, limited long-term safety data, potential for skin and eye irritation (in non-food uses)

Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone

Skin sensitization, allergic reactions, possible eye irritation

Coumarin

Skin sensitization, allergic reactions in sensitive individuals, potential phototoxicity, restricted use concentration in fragrances by IFRA, possible hepatotoxicity at high oral doses

Limonene

Skin sensitization, allergic contact dermatitis, respiratory irritation upon inhalation of oxidized forms

Linalool

Skin sensitization, contact allergy, mild skin irritation, potential respiratory sensitization in some individuals

PPG-14 Butyl Ether

Skin irritation, respiratory irritation with inhalation, potential allergenicity, not for ingestion

C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate

Not approved for food use, possible skin irritation, potential for systemic absorption, lacks nutritional value

Hydrogenated Castor Oil

Ultra-processed, potential trans fat content, gut irritation in sensitive individuals, questionable long-term safety

Silica

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

Hydroxystearic Acid

A hydroxy-substituted C18 saturated fatty acid (most commonly 12-hydroxystearic acid), typically produced from castor/oleic acid derivatives. It is widely used as a rheology modifier, gellant, and emulsifying aid in cosmetics and industrial formulations; it is not commonly used as a direct food ingredient, though related hydroxy fatty acid derivatives (e.g., from castor oil) are present in some approved additives. Available toxicology and cosmetic safety assessments indicate low acute toxicity and low sensitization potential. If ingested, hydroxy fatty acids are expected to be metabolized via standard fatty-acid β-oxidation pathways.

Glycine

Supports protein synthesis, neurotransmission, and collagen production

Calcium Chloride

Stabilizes food structure, acts as a firming agent, controls moisture

Stearic Acid

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

Stearyl Alcohol

Emollient, thickening agent, stabilizes emulsions

Polyethylene

Durable, chemically inert, widely used in packaging and containers

Dimethicone

Skin conditioning, forms protective barrier, reduces irritation from other ingredients, non-toxic, non-comedogenic
