Ingredients Details
Menthol
Common Name(s): L-menthol,peppermint camphor,(-)-menthol
CAS Number: 89-78-1
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Activates trpm8 cold thermoreceptors for intense cooling sensation and analgesic activity.
Why It's Used: The most potent cosmetic cooling agent โ direct trpm8 agonist providing cooling sensation without actual temperature reduction for refreshing and analgesic formulations.
How It Works: Potent trpm8 (menthol receptor/cold thermosensor) agonist โ activation at room temperature mimics cold sensation without actual cooling. anti-pruritic via trpm8 activation competing with itch c-fiber signaling. antimicrobial via membrane disruption.
Typically Found In: Cooling products,scalp treatments,oral care,pain relief,foot care,after-sun
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Active ingredient โ cooling sensory terpenoid
Secondary Functions: Redness reduction,anti-inflammatory,calming
Application Areas:
Facial Skincare
Body Care

Color Cosmetics (Makeup)
Dietary/Oral Supplements
Typical Concentration Range: 0.1%โ2%
SOURCING & ETHICS
Vegan Status: Yes โ from mentha piperita or synthetic
Halal Status: Yes
Source Notes: Plant-derived extract or synthetic.
SKIN COMPATIBILITY
Irritancy Rating: 2/5 โ low to moderate; potential sensitizer
Comedogenicity Rating: 0/5 โ non-comedogenic
Sensitivity Concerns: Non-irritating; ideal for reactive and sensitive skin.
Safe for Sensitive Skin: Avoid near eyes. use with caution at concentrations above 1% for sensitive skin.
SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY
Safety Profile: Eu max 4.5% (leave-on); regulations vary by application site. avoid on infants' face.
Works Well With: Ceramides,panthenol,allantoin,hyaluronic acid,centella asiatica
Avoid Combining With: No significant incompatibilities
SCIENTIFIC NOTE
Menthol's exceptional cooling potency stems from its ec50 for trpm8 activation of approximately 10ฮผm (vs camphor's ec50 of ~5mm โ 500ร lower potency). this 500ร potency advantage explains why even tiny concentrations of menthol provide intense cooling, while much higher concentrations of camphor are required for equivalent sensation.

Talc
Common Name(s): Magnesium silicate,french chalk,soapstone powder
CAS Number: 14807-96-6
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Provides the smoothest slip and oil absorption from the softest mineral for cosmetic powder formulations.
Why It's Used: The industry-standard cosmetic powder base โ talc's unmatched softness (mohs 1 โ softer than skin) provides the smoothest cosmetic feel of any mineral powder.
How It Works: Layered mg3si4o10(oh)2 structure provides inter-layer slip from weakly bonded oh surfaces. mohs hardness 1 โ softer than all skin components. very low coefficient of friction from silicone-like siloxane surface. oil absorption via inter-layer capillary action.
Typically Found In: Face powders,baby powder,eyeshadow โ foundational cosmetic powder ingredient

Secondary Functions: Skin conditioning
Application Areas:
Facial Skincare
Body Care

SKIN COMPATIBILITY
Irritancy Rating: 1/5 โ very low
Comedogenicity Rating: 0/5 โ non-comedogenic
Sensitivity Concerns: Well-tolerated by most skin types.

SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY
Safety Profile: Cosmetic-grade talc must be free of asbestos contamination โ asbestos is a known carcinogen. only asbestos-free cosmetic talc should be used. avoid inhalation of talc powders.
Works Well With: Standard skincare actives
Avoid Combining With: No known significant incompatibilities
SCIENTIFIC NOTE
Talc's mohs hardness of 1 (the reference mineral for mohs scale minimum) means it is softer than skin itself (estimated mohs ~0.5-1 for soft skin, 2+ for callused skin). this exceptional softness means talc particles don't scratch skin during application โ physical contact between talc and skin surface is literally softer than touching skin to itself, explaining talc's unmatched 'like silk' application feel.
