What's inside

Isopropyl Isostearate

Not approved for food use, potential for skin irritation in topical use, potential toxicity if ingested

Aluminum Starch Octenylsuccinate

Potential aluminum accumulation, possible neurotoxicity with excessive intake, ultra-processed additive, unknown long-term effects

PEG-100 Stearate

Potential contamination with ethylene oxide or 1,4-dioxane during manufacturing, possible mild gut irritation, synthetic origin, ultra-processed

Polysorbate 20

Mild skin irritation at high concentrations, rare sensitization

Synthetic Wax

Ultra-processed, potential intestinal irritation, possible accumulation in the body, no nutritional value

Disodium EDTA

Potential mild skin irritation, environmental persistence, limited oral bioavailability

Polyacrylate-13

Possible skin irritation, environmental concerns, synthetic processing

Stearyl Heptanoate

Increased skin smoothness, reduced friction, moisturizing effect for topical (non-oral) application

Cetearyl Olivate

Cetearyl olivate is an emulsifying agent derived from the esterification of cetearyl alcohol (a mixture of cetyl and stearyl alcohols) with the fatty acids of olive oil. It is commonly used in cosmetics, personal care, and some processed food products to stabilize oil-in-water emulsions. While primarily used for topical applications, its food-grade variant is generally regarded as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used in regulated amounts.
