Ingredients Details

Beeswax

Common Name(s): Cera alba (white),cera flava (yellow),apis mellifera wax

CAS Number: 8012-89-3

DESCRIPTION

What It Does: Provides natural wax structure and emolliency for cosmetic texture and lip balm applications.

Why It's Used: The original cosmetic wax โ€“ provides natural, hard-texture structure for lip balms, sticks, and creams with emollient skin conditioning.

How It Works: Complex mixture of esters (wax esters), hydrocarbons (hentriacontane), and fatty acids provides semi-crystalline structure. melting point 62-65ยฐc enables stable solid products. emulsifying capacity from free cerotic acid content.

Typically Found In: Lip balms,cosmetic sticks,creams,natural cosmetics

TECHNICAL DETAILS

Primary Category: Functional ingredient โ€“ natural wax

Secondary Functions: Natural wax structure,occlusive conditioning

Application Areas:

Facial Skincare

Body Care

Hair Care

Beard Care

Color Cosmetics (Makeup)

Dietary/Oral Supplements

Typical Concentration Range: 2%โ€“30%

SOURCING & ETHICS

Vegan Status: No โ€“ honeybee-derived

Halal Status: Conditional โ€“ animal-derived; verify halal certification

Source Notes: Plant-derived, synthetic or animal-derived. verify source.

SKIN COMPATIBILITY

Irritancy Rating: 1/5 โ€“ very low

Comedogenicity Rating: 1/5 โ€“ low; formulation-dependent

Sensitivity Concerns: Non-irritating.

Safe for Sensitive Skin: Yes

SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY

Safety Profile: Excellent safety profile. ewg score: 1.

Works Well With: Humectants,ceramides,actives as carrier

Avoid Combining With: No significant incompatibilities

SCIENTIFIC NOTE

Beeswax's multi-component wax ester composition (myricyl palmitate as primary component) provides a unique crystalline structure that gives lip balms and cosmetic sticks their characteristic 'dragรฉe' glide โ€“ different from synthetic wax esters that lack this crystalline lattice diversity.

Cyclohexasiloxane

Common Name(s): D6,cyclomethicone d6,hexamethylcyclotrisiloxane

CAS Number: 540-97-6

DESCRIPTION

What It Does: Provides volatile silicone delivery with longer contact time than d5 for extended active delivery.

Why It's Used: Longer-evaporation volatile silicone for formulations requiring extended delivery contact time vs d5's rapid evaporation.

How It Works: Larger ring (6 silicone units) provides lower vapor pressure than d5 (5 units). slower evaporation rate (2-3ร— longer than d5) provides extended delivery window. same dry-touch after complete evaporation.

Typically Found In: Longer-duration volatile vehicles,serum formulations

TECHNICAL DETAILS

Primary Category: Functional ingredient โ€“ volatile cyclic silicone

Secondary Functions: Skin conditioning

Application Areas:

Facial Skincare

Body Care

Hair Care

Beard Care

Color Cosmetics (Makeup)

Dietary/Oral Supplements

Typical Concentration Range: 1%โ€“30%

SOURCING & ETHICS

Vegan Status: Yes โ€“ synthetic

Halal Status: Yes

Source Notes: Commercially produced for cosmetic use. verify vegan/halal status with supplier.

SKIN COMPATIBILITY

Irritancy Rating: 1/5 โ€“ very low

Comedogenicity Rating: 0/5 โ€“ non-comedogenic

Sensitivity Concerns: Well-tolerated by most skin types.

Safe for Sensitive Skin: Yes

SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY

Safety Profile: Eu restrictions on d5 do not apply to d6 โ€“ d6 may be used in rinse-off products without restriction.

Works Well With: Standard skincare actives

Avoid Combining With: No known significant incompatibilities

SCIENTIFIC NOTE

The different evaporation rates of d4 (methylcyclosiloxane), d5, and d6 provide formulators with a toolkit of volatile silicone delivery windows: d4 evaporates in ~1 minute, d5 in ~5 minutes, d6 in ~15 minutes. blending these provides precisely tunable evaporation kinetics for specific delivery timing requirements.

Cyclopentasiloxane

Common Name(s): Cyclopentasiloxane,cyclic volatile silicone,dry-touch carrier solvent

CAS Number: N/a

DESCRIPTION

What It Does: Provides a dry, weightless application vehicle that evaporates cleanly leaving actives and non-volatile silicones deposited on skin โ€” eliminating the residual heaviness of conventional liquid carrier solvents.

Why It's Used: Cyclosiloxanes are the unique volatile silicone solvents that dissolve non-volatile silicones (dimethicone, cyclomethicone), organic uv filters, and lipophilic actives, providing the sensory-superior dry-touch application experience in premium formulations.

How It Works: Cyclosiloxane vapour pressure (d5 cyclopentasiloxane ~0.3 mmhg at 25ยฐc) provides clean evaporation at body temperature. the cyclic ring structure provides lower boiling point than equivalent linear dimethicone, enabling faster evaporation while the ring conformation maintains the silicone's low surface energy for smooth application.

Typically Found In: Primers,antiperspirants,sunscreens

TECHNICAL DETAILS

Primary Category: Functional ingredient โ€“ emollient

Secondary Functions: Barrier sealing,softening

Application Areas:

Facial Skincare

Body Care

Hair Care

Beard Care

Color Cosmetics (Makeup)

Dietary/Oral Supplements

Typical Concentration Range: 1%โ€“50%

SOURCING & ETHICS

Vegan Status: Yes

Halal Status: Yes

Works Well With: Humectants,ceramides,actives as carrier

Avoid Combining With: No significant incompatibilities

SCIENTIFIC NOTE

Cyclopentasiloxane (d5) and cyclohexasiloxane (d6) are under eu regulatory review for potential environmental persistence (pbt assessment) โ€” formulators should monitor eu regulation 2018/35 implementation for restrictions in wash-off products.

Isohexadecane

Common Name(s): Permethyl 101a,c16 isoparaffin

DESCRIPTION

What It Does: Provides ultra-lightweight dry-touch emolliency with excellent pigment dispersion for lightweight formulations.

Why It's Used: Premium lightweight emollient for dry-touch formulations โ€” isohexadecane's highly branched structure provides the lightest, driest application feel of common cosmetic hydrocarbons.

How It Works: Highly branched c16 isoparaffin provides very low surface tension for fast spreading. completely non-polar structure provides no water retention (dry feel). excellent pigment wetting for colour cosmetics. very low viscosity (2.5 cst) for fluid application.

Typically Found In: Lightweight foundations,sunscreens,colour cosmetics,dry-touch products

TECHNICAL DETAILS

Primary Category: Functional ingredient โ€“ branched hydrocarbon emollient

Secondary Functions: Barrier sealing,softening

Application Areas:

Facial Skincare

Body Care

Hair Care

Beard Care

Color Cosmetics (Makeup)

Dietary/Oral Supplements

Typical Concentration Range: 1%โ€“30%

SOURCING & ETHICS

Vegan Status: Yes โ€“ synthetic hydrocarbon

Halal Status: Yes

Source Notes: Plant-derived, synthetic or animal-derived. verify source.

SKIN COMPATIBILITY

Irritancy Rating: 1/5 โ€“ very low

Comedogenicity Rating: 0/5 โ€“ non-comedogenic

Sensitivity Concerns: Non-irritating.

Safe for Sensitive Skin: Yes

SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY

Safety Profile: Excellent safety profile. ewg score: 1.

Works Well With: Humectants,ceramides,actives as carrier

Avoid Combining With: No significant incompatibilities

SCIENTIFIC NOTE

Isohexadecane's highly branched structure (methyl-substituted hexadecane) prevents the close molecular packing that creates liquid crystalline phases in linear hydrocarbons, resulting in a permanently disordered liquid state with very low viscosity and surface tension. this structural disorder from branching is the molecular basis for the lighter, faster-spreading application feel vs equivalent linear hydrocarbons.
