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

  • Titanium Dioxide

    Colorant (adds colour)Opacifier (makes the formula less see-through)UV absorber (protects the formula from light, not a sunscreen filter)UV filter (filters UV rays)

    Titanium Dioxide is a mineral UV filter that absorbs ultraviolet light. It also works as a white colorant and opacifier, adding whiteness and making the product less see-through. As a color additive it appears on labels as CI 77891.

  • Synthetic Fluorphlogopite

    Bulking agent (adds volume)Viscosity control (thickens or thins the formula)

    A mineral ingredient that adds bulk and adjusts the product's thickness. This helps give the formula its texture and body.

  • Talc

    Abrasive (physically scrubs)Absorbent (takes up oil or water)Anticaking (keeps powder free-flowing)Bulking agent (adds volume)Opacifier (makes the formula less see-through)Skin protecting (CosIng functional class)Slip modifier (changes how the formula spreads)

    Talc is a soft mineral powder that absorbs moisture and adds bulk and slip. In practice it helps the product spread, keeps powders from clumping, and can add opacity.

  • Triethylhexanoin

    Fragrance ingredient (scent)Hair conditioning (CosIng functional class)Skin conditioning (CosIng functional class)

    A lightweight conditioning oil for skin and hair that also carries fragrance. It softens the surface and helps the product spread evenly, while adding scent.

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

    A silicone that softens and smooths skin feel and forms a protective layer on the surface. It also cuts down foam during production, keeping the formula settled.

  • Silica

    Abrasive (physically scrubs)Absorbent (takes up oil or water)Anticaking (keeps powder free-flowing)Bulking agent (adds volume)Opacifier (makes the formula less see-through)otherViscosity control (thickens or thins the formula)

    Silica is a fine mineral powder that soaks up excess moisture and oil, and adjusts how thick the product feels. It keeps powders from clumping, adds bulk, and can make a formula look more opaque. Its chemical name is silicon dioxide.

  • Synthetic Wax

    Abrasive (physically scrubs)Binder (holds the formula together)Emulsion stabiliser (keeps oil and water mixed)Fragrance ingredient (scent)Viscosity control (thickens or thins the formula)

    A wax that adjusts the product's thickness and helps hold the mix together. It keeps the oil and water parts from separating and can act as a mild scrub particle. It also adds a light scent and helps bind the formula together.

  • Vinyl Dimethicone/Methicone Silsesquioxane Crosspolymer

    Viscosity control (thickens or thins the formula)

    This is a silicone-based ingredient that adjusts the product's thickness. It helps give the formula the right texture and body.
