Ingredients Details
Silica
Common Name(s): Silica,cosmetic active,functional ingredient
CAS Number: N/a
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Delivers characteristic cosmetic function at recommended use concentration.
Why It's Used: Selected for functional contribution and formulation compatibility supported by cosmetic science and regulatory safety data.
How It Works: Works through the mechanism of its molecular class โ physicochemical or biological interaction with skin proteins, lipids, or receptors as documented in peer-reviewed cosmetic literature.
Typically Found In: Skin care formulations
TECHNICAL DETAILS

Tocopherol
Common Name(s): Vitamin e,alpha-tocopherol,d-alpha-tocopherol,(+)-alpha-tocopherol
CAS Number: 59-02-9
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Tocopherol neutralizes free radicals that damage skin cells, protects cell membranes from lipid peroxidation, moisturizes, and helps maintain a healthy skin barrier.
Why It's Used: It is used as both a skin-active antioxidant and a formulation stabilizer (preventing oxidation of other ingredients). it has decades of safety and efficacy evidence and works synergistically with vitamin c.
How It Works: As a chain-breaking antioxidant, tocopherol donates hydrogen atoms to interrupt lipid peroxidation chain reactions. it is regenerated by vitamin c (ascorbic acid) in the vitamins c+e antioxidant cycle, creating a more durable antioxidant defense.
Typically Found In: Moisturizers,serums,oils,sunscreens,eye creams,lip balms,antioxidant formulations,haircare products
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Active ingredient โ antioxidant/vitamin e
Secondary Functions: Emollient,formulation stabilizer,barrier support
Application Areas:
Facial Skincare
Body Care
Hair Care
Beard Care
Color Cosmetics (Makeup)
Dietary/Oral Supplements
Typical Concentration Range: 0.1%โ1% (typical: 0.1โ0.5% as active; higher as formulation antioxidant)
SOURCING & ETHICS
Vegan Status: Yes โ plant-derived (soybean, sunflower, wheat germ oil) or synthetic
Halal Status: Yes โ plant-derived or synthetic
Source Notes: Natural d-alpha-tocopherol is derived from plant oils and is more bioactive. synthetic dl-alpha-tocopherol is less expensive. tocopherol acetate (tocopheryl acetate) is the more stable ester form.
SKIN COMPATIBILITY
Irritancy Rating: 1/5 โ very low; rare contact sensitivity reported
Comedogenicity Rating: 2/5 โ mildly comedogenic at higher concentrations; formulation-dependent
Sensitivity Concerns: A small percentage of people report contact sensitization to tocopherol, particularly with leave-on products. comedogenicity risk is higher in oil-heavy formulations.
Safe for Sensitive Skin: Generally yes; perform patch test if history of vitamin e sensitivity
SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY
Safety Profile: Very safe; widely used. ewg hazard score: 2โ3 (depending on concentration). no significant systemic concerns from topical use.
Works Well With: Ascorbic acid (vitamin c) โ synergistic antioxidant pair,ferulic acid โ stabilizes and boosts both c and e,ceramides,spf,retinol
Avoid Combining With: Very high concentrations of benzoyl peroxide may oxidize tocopherol; potential comedogenicity concerns in acne-prone skin when in heavy oil bases
SCIENTIFIC NOTE
The combination of vitamin c, vitamin e, and ferulic acid (the 'ce ferulic' formulation) provides fourfold photoprotection against uv-induced free radical damage โ a synergy documented in landmark research by pinnell et al.
