What each ingredient generally does

Each entry that matched a canonical ingredient, with the function recorded for it. These notes describe the role an ingredient plays in a formulation. They do not assess an ingredient.

  • Petrolatum

    Antistatic (reduces static)Emollient (softens and smooths skin)Skin conditioning (CosIng functional class)

    A semi-solid blend of hydrocarbons that softens and smooths skin and reduces static. It keeps skin feeling supple. You may see it on labels as petroleum jelly.

  • Avobenzone

    Light stabiliser (protects the formula from light)UV absorber (protects the formula from light, not a sunscreen filter)UV filter (filters UV rays)

    An organic UV filter that absorbs ultraviolet light. It also acts as a light stabilizer, helping the formula hold up under sun exposure. On labels it also appears as Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane.

  • Homosalate

    Fragrance ingredient (scent)UV absorber (protects the formula from light, not a sunscreen filter)UV filter (filters UV rays)

    A wax that adjusts thickness and helps hold the mix stable, and it conditions hair. In practice it thickens the product, keeps the blend from separating, and can make it look opaque rather than clear. It also helps other ingredients stick together.

  • Caprylic/Capric/Lauric Triglyceride

    A skin-conditioning oil-like ingredient. It leaves the skin feeling conditioned.

  • Isocetyl Stearate

Checking this against your own list

SPF Scout's Personal Ingredient Check runs in the app, on your device. This page cannot see a personal avoidance list. Your selections are stored on your phone and are never sent to this website. There is nowhere on our side for them to go.

In the app you choose the ingredients you already avoid, and every entry in this declaration that matches one of them is shown to you with the alias path that produced the match.

This comparison does not predict whether your skin will react.
