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.

  • Octinoxate

    Light stabilizer (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 when exposed to sunlight. You'll often see it listed as Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate.

  • Oxybenzone

    Light stabilizer (protects the formula from light)UV absorber (protects the formula from light, not a sunscreen filter)UV filter (filters UV rays)Restricted in the EU

    Oxybenzone is an organic UV filter that absorbs ultraviolet light. It also works as a light stabilizer, helping the formula hold up under sun exposure. On labels it often appears as Benzophenone-3.

  • Hydrogenated Polyisobutene

    Emollient (softens and smooths skin)Skin conditioning (CosIng functional class)Viscosity control (thickens or thins the formula)

    An oily liquid that softens and smooths the skin feel while helping set the product's thickness. In practice it gives the formula a slip and body so it spreads and stays where you put it.

  • Petrolatum

    Antistatic (reduces static)Emollient (softens and smooths skin)Skin conditioning (CosIng functional class)Restricted in the EU

    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.

  • Polybutene

    Binder (holds the formula together)Viscosity control (thickens or thins the formula)

    This is a thick polymer used to bind ingredients together and adjust thickness. It helps hold the formula together and gives it a heavier, more cushioned texture.

  • Phenyl Trimethicone

    Antifoaming (stops the formula foaming)Emollient (softens and smooths skin)Hair conditioning (CosIng functional class)Occlusive (CosIng functional class)Skin conditioning (CosIng functional class)

    This is a silicone that conditions skin and hair and cuts down on foaming. As an occlusive it forms a layer that helps hold in moisture, and it gives a smooth feel.

  • Hydrogenated Lanolin

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

    A conditioning agent that softens and smooths skin. It also conditions hair and helps cut static cling. In practice it gives a smoother feel to skin and hair.

  • Ozokerite

    Binder (holds the formula together)Emulsion stabilizer (keeps oil and water mixed)Opacifier (makes the formula less see-through)Viscosity control (thickens or thins the formula)

    A wax that thickens the formula and helps hold it together. It adjusts thickness, keeps the oil and water parts from separating, binds ingredients, and makes the product more opaque.

  • Myristyl Myristate

    Emollient (softens and smooths skin)Opacifier (makes the formula less see-through)Skin conditioning (CosIng functional class)

    An emollient that softens and smooths skin feel. It also makes the product more opaque, so a clear formula turns creamy or milky in look.

  • Polyethylene

    Abrasive (physically scrubs)Film forming (leaves a thin coating)Viscosity control (thickens or thins the formula)

    Polyethylene is a plastic-type material that acts as a mild scrub particle, a film former, and a thickness adjuster. That means it can smooth or polish the skin surface, leave a thin coating as the product dries, and adjust how thick the formula is.

  • Cetyl Lactate

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

    Cetyl Lactate conditions the skin and acts as an emollient, softening and smoothing skin feel. That gives the product a smooth, non-tight finish as it spreads.

  • Butyrospermum Parkii Butter

    Emollient (softens and smooths skin)Skin conditioning (CosIng functional class)Viscosity control (thickens or thins the formula)

    This is shea butter, a rich fat that softens and smooths the skin. It also adjusts the thickness of the product, giving it more body. You may see it listed under its common name, shea butter.

    listed as “butyrospermum parkii (shea) butter”

  • Bis-Behenyl/Isostearyl/Phytosteryl Dimer Dilinoleyl Dimer Dilinoleate
