What Nykaa E retail limited Says
Product Description:
Bravado Sans Qua Waterless Facewash for men brings a new-age-revolutionary formulation that performs all essential cleansing rituals which a regular water-based cleansing product does albeit with more efficacy and prudence. Infused with natural ingredients like vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, and niacinamide, this serum deeply nourishes and moisturizes the skin. Our Illuminate Face Serum is suitable for all skin types and is specially formulated to even out skin tone and texture, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and improve overall skin clarity. Features: The three plant extracts of Citrus, Aloe and Broccoli tighten the pores and decrease the sebum spots. The Black Oat extract forms a moisture film on the skin reducing trans-epidermal water loss and providing long-lasting moisturizing protection. Bravado Sans-Qua Waterless Facewash reduces the adhesions that pollutants bind with the skin, inhibits the formation of free radicals, and protects the skin from cell death, thereby making your skin youthful, soft, dewy, and radiating. Bravado Sans-Qua Waterless Facewash detoxifies the skin, cleans and tightens the pores, fights pollution, moisturises dry skin and makes skin soft and bright without using water.

Key Ingredients

Ingredients Details
Benzophenone-4
Common Name(s): Benzophenone-4
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Absorbs or reflects uv radiation, preventing uv-induced dna damage, photo-oxidative stress, and premature skin aging.
Why It's Used: Uv filters are the active ingredients in sun protection โ without them, formulations cannot make spf claims or prevent solar-induced skin damage.
How It Works: The uv-absorbing chromophore undergoes photoexcitation by uv photons, then dissipates the absorbed energy through thermal relaxation (chemical filters) or photon scattering/reflection (physical filters), preventing photon penetration to skin cells.
Typically Found In: Sunscreens,moisturizers with spf,foundations with spf
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Uv filters
Secondary Functions: Skin-protecting
Application Areas:
Facial Skincare
Body Care
Hair Care
Beard Care
Color Cosmetics (Makeup)
Dietary/Oral Supplements
Typical Concentration Range: 0.5โ25% (within regulatory limits)
SOURCING & ETHICS
Vegan Status: Yes
Halal Status: Yes
Source Notes: Synthetic uv filter; no animal components.
SKIN COMPATIBILITY
Irritancy Rating: 1
Comedogenicity Rating: 0
Sensitivity Concerns: Contact allergy to uv filters occurs in approximately 1โ3% of the general population; patch testing recommended for those with known photosensitivity.
Safe for Sensitive Skin: Yes
SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY
Safety Profile: Regulatory approval required per market (eu annex vi, fda otc monograph, etc.). generally non-irritating at approved concentrations.
Works Well With: Other uv filters,antioxidants,emollients
Avoid Combining With: Incompatible filter combinations (photodegradation); check regulatory approvals per region
SCIENTIFIC NOTE
Uv filters operate through two mechanisms: organic/chemical filters absorb uv photons through electronic excitation (ฯโฯ* transitions in conjugated systems), then dissipate energy via thermal relaxation; inorganic/physical filters (tio2, zno) scatter and reflect photons through mie scattering (particle size 50โ300 nm) and band gap absorption. spf is measured in vivo (iso 24444) as the ratio of minimal erythema doses with and without sunscreen.

Water
Common Name(s): Water,purified water,deionised water,inci water
CAS Number: 7732-18-5
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Provides the universal solvent and vehicle for water-soluble actives and the continuous phase of all o/w emulsions.
Why It's Used: The most essential cosmetic ingredient โ aqua (water) is listed first on virtually all water-containing cosmetic inci labels as the highest-concentration ingredient, serving as the foundation of the global cosmetics industry.
How It Works: Acts as solvent for all water-soluble ingredients (glycols, amino acids, water-soluble actives). forms the continuous external phase of o/w emulsions (lotions, creams, serums). provides aqueous environment for enzymatic and chemical reactions between actives. ph adjustment medium.
Typically Found In: Virtually all cosmetic products โ the most universal cosmetic ingredient globally
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Functional ingredient โ water
Secondary Functions: Skin conditioning
Application Areas:
Facial Skincare
Body Care
Hair Care
Beard Care
Color Cosmetics (Makeup)

Vegan Status: Yes โ water (deionised/purified)
Halal Status: Yes
Source Notes: Cosmetic-grade water is purified (deionised, distilled, or ro filtered) to prevent mineral content interference with formulation stability. european pharmacopoeial water (aqua purificata ph. eur.) is the quality standard for pharmaceutical and high-end cosmetic formulations.

Safety Profile: Good safety profile at recommended concentrations. ewg score: 1โ2.
Works Well With: Standard skincare actives
Avoid Combining With: No known significant incompatibilities
SCIENTIFIC NOTE
Water's position as the first inci ingredient on most cosmetic labels reflects the regulatory requirement to list ingredients in descending concentration order โ meaning water is the most abundant ingredient in the majority of cosmetic products. the fundamental role of water as the universal cosmetic solvent and vehicle makes it simultaneously the most important cosmetic ingredient and the one that requires the most sophisticated formulation chemistry to control โ every emulsifier, thickener, preservative, and ph adjuster exists primarily to manage water's interaction with other ingredients in formulation.
