Ingredients Details
Dimethicone
Common Name(s): Pdms,polydimethylsiloxane,silicone fluid
CAS Number: 9006-65-9
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Provides silicone-characteristic silky feel and skin protection with adjustable viscosity.
Why It's Used: The benchmark cosmetic silicone โ sets the gold standard for silky application feel, spreadability, and skin protection in virtually all skin care categories.
How It Works: Polydimethylsiloxane chain flexibility provides extremely low surface tension and high spreadability. inert si-o backbone provides chemical stability and excellent skin tolerance. occlusive film formation reduces tewl. higher viscosity grades provide more intense conditioning.
Typically Found In: Moisturizers,foundations,primers,sunscreens โ nearly universal
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Functional ingredient โ polydimethylsiloxane
Secondary Functions: Barrier sealing,softening
Application Areas:
Facial Skincare
Body Care
Hair Care
Beard Care
Color Cosmetics (Makeup)
Dietary/Oral Supplements
Typical Concentration Range: 0.1%โ30%
SOURCING & ETHICS
Vegan Status: Yes โ synthetic
Halal Status: Yes
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
Dimethicone's exceptional silky feel arises from its very low intermolecular attractive forces (weak van der waals forces due to non-polar methyl groups) that allow silicone chains to slide freely over skin. the coefficient of kinetic friction for pdms against skin (~0.04) is among the lowest of any cosmetic material โ explaining why even small amounts transform product feel.

Fragrance
Common Name(s): Fragrance ingredient,eu allergen or aromatic component,olfactory/flavour
CAS Number: N/a
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Provides the complete fragrance profile contributing to product sensory experience and consumer appeal.
Why It's Used: Fragrance is a major consumer purchase driver โ up to 70% of consumers make purchasing decisions partially based on product scent.
How It Works: Fragrance blends interact with olfactory receptors providing the sensory profile โ complex mixtures activate multiple receptor types for rich, multidimensional scent experiences.
Typically Found In: All fragrance products

Phytoceramides
Common Name(s): Phytosterol,plant sterol membrane mimic,barrier repair emollient
CAS Number: N/a
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Integrates into sc lipid bilayers to restore lamellar order (replacing depleted cholesterol), reduces inflammatory mediator production, and provides emollient skin conditioning from the sterol's amphiphilic structure.
Why It's Used: Phytosterols directly replace the cholesterol function in sc lipid bilayers that is depleted in damaged, aged, and environmentally stressed skin โ providing genuine structural barrier repair rather than occlusive surface treatment.
How It Works: Phytosterols integrate into the sc lamellar body-derived lipid bilayers at the orthorhombic/hexagonal phase transition zone, where they regulate lipid fluidity similarly to cholesterol. the 5,6-double bond and oh at c3 provide the hydrogen bonding and van der waals geometry required for sc bilayer integration and ordering.
Typically Found In: Barrier repair,anti-aging,natural emollients
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Functional ingredient โ emollient
Secondary Functions: Barrier sealing,softening
Application Areas:
Facial Skincare

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
Sc requires an equimolar ratio of ceramides, free fatty acids, and cholesterol for optimal lamellar structure. phytosterols can substitute for cholesterol in this ratio โ essential information for formulating targeted barrier repair for cholesterol-deficient sc conditions (aged skin, atopic dermatitis).
