Ingredients Details
Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltaurate/vp Copolymer
Common Name(s): Ammonium acryloyldimethyltaurate/vp copolymer
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Delivers targeted skin-conditioning or bioactive benefits through a specific mechanism of action suited to the formulation's intended purpose.
Why It's Used: Specialty actives address specific skin concerns through targeted molecular mechanisms, providing efficacy beyond what base formulation ingredients alone can achieve.
How It Works: The bioactive compound interacts with specific molecular targets in skin cells or the extracellular matrix — enzymes, receptors, structural proteins, or signaling molecules — triggering beneficial biological responses.
Typically Found In: Serums,treatments,moisturizers,specialty products
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Specialty actives
Secondary Functions: Skin-conditioning,anti-aging
Application Areas:
Facial Skincare
Body Care
Hair Care
Beard Care
Color Cosmetics (Makeup)
Dietary/Oral Supplements
Typical Concentration Range: 0.01–5%
SOURCING & ETHICS
Vegan Status: Conditional - supplier confirmation required
Halal Status: Unverified - supplier confirmation required
Source Notes: Specialty active ingredient; check individual sourcing for vegan status. [audit 2026-07-29 rev2: the record's own source_notes does not assert a non-animal origin, or instructs the reader to verify with the supplier; "yes" asserts knowledge the record does not hold. determination requires shariah-panel sign-off.]
SKIN COMPATIBILITY
Irritancy Rating: 1
Comedogenicity Rating: 0
Sensitivity Concerns: Low sensitization potential at recommended use concentrations.
Safe for Sensitive Skin: Yes
SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY
Safety Profile: Well-characterized cosmetic ingredient with established safety profile. generally non-irritating at typical use concentrations. suitable for leave-on and rinse-off cosmetics.
Works Well With: Niacinamide,hyaluronic acid,vitamin c,peptides
Avoid Combining With: Incompatible with oxidizing agents; check ph stability
SCIENTIFIC NOTE
Specialty actives typically work through enzyme inhibition (e.g., tyrosinase inhibition for brightening, mmp inhibition for anti-aging), receptor activation (e.g., retinoid receptors, ppar-γ for barrier genes), or transcription factor modulation (e.g., nrf2 for antioxidant gene upregulation). structure-activity relationships determine potency and selectivity.

Benzophenone-3
Common Name(s): Oxybenzone,2-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone,uva+uvb filter
CAS Number: 131-57-7
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Provides combined uva and uvb filtration in a single chemical uv filter molecule.
Why It's Used: Combined uva+uvb filter historically used for broad-spectrum coverage in a single ingredient, now increasingly restricted.
How It Works: Benzophenone chromophore absorbs uvb (305nm) and uva-ii (326nm) via two separate n→π* transitions. water-soluble allows aqueous phase formulation. single filter providing partial broad-spectrum coverage.
Typically Found In: Sunscreens (being phased out in many markets)
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Active ingredient – chemical uva/uvb filter
Secondary Functions: Skin conditioning
Application Areas:
Facial Skincare
Body Care
Hair Care
Beard Care
Color Cosmetics (Makeup)
Dietary/Oral Supplements
Typical Concentration Range: Up to 6% (eu), 6% (us fda)
SOURCING & ETHICS
Vegan Status: Conditional - supplier confirmation required
Halal Status: Unverified - supplier confirmation required
Source Notes: Commercially produced for cosmetic use. verify vegan/halal status with supplier. [audit 2026-07-29 rev2: the record's own source_notes does not assert a non-animal origin, or instructs the reader to verify with the supplier; "yes" asserts knowledge the record does not hold. determination requires shariah-panel sign-off.]
SKIN COMPATIBILITY
Irritancy Rating: 1/5 – very low
Comedogenicity Rating: 0/5 – non-comedogenic
Sensitivity Concerns: Well-tolerated by most skin types.
Safe for Sensitive Skin: Yes
SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY
Safety Profile: Eu max 6%. coral reef/aquatic toxicity — banned hawaii, palau, some us states. potential endocrine activity at high systemic exposure. ewg score: 7. use declining due to regulatory pressure.
Works Well With: Standard skincare actives
Avoid Combining With: No known significant incompatibilities
SCIENTIFIC NOTE
Benzophenone-3's declining use reflects evolving understanding of environmental and endocrine impacts: discovered in coral bleaching studies, its restriction in hawaii (2018) sparked a global trend in marine-safe sunscreen formulations that is reshaping the industry away from bp-3 toward mineral filters and marine-safer organic alternatives.

Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane
Common Name(s): Butyl methoxydibenzoylmethane,organic uv filter,photostabilising sunscreen active
CAS Number: N/a
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Absorbs uv radiation at specific wavelengths (uva 320–400 nm, uvb 290–320 nm) and dissipates photon energy as heat rather than skin-damaging photochemical reactions.
Why It's Used: Organic uv filters are chosen for their high molar extinction coefficient, specific spectral coverage, and formulation compatibility — individual filters are combined to provide broad-spectrum coverage across uva+uvb.
How It Works: Uv photon absorption by the aromatic chromophore π-system excites the molecule from s₀ ground state to s₁ excited state. rapid internal conversion or photoisomerisation dissipates energy as vibrational heat before it can initiate skin photodamage.
Typically Found In: Sunscreens,photoprotective products
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Active ingredient – cosmetic active
Secondary Functions: Skin conditioning
Application Areas:
Facial Skincare
Body Care
Hair Care
Beard Care
Color Cosmetics (Makeup)
Dietary/Oral Supplements
Typical Concentration Range: Check local sunscreen regulations

Safe for Sensitive Skin: Yes
SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY
Safety Profile: Good safety profile at recommended concentrations. ewg score: 1–2.
Works Well With: Standard skincare actives
Avoid Combining With: No known significant incompatibilities
SCIENTIFIC NOTE
Organic uv filters require photostabilisation (by avobenzone-octocrylene pairing, or triazine stabilisers) as some absorbers degrade on uv exposure — formulator must verify photostability of the chosen filter combination.

Ci 15510
Common Name(s): Ci 15510,approved cosmetic colorant,colour cosmetics pigment
CAS Number: N/a
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Provides colour in cosmetic formulations within the permitted application areas and concentrations specified by fda 21 cfr 73/74 and eu cosmetics regulation annex iv.
Why It's Used: Regulatory compliance requires verifying both the permitted use category (fd&c, d&c, ext. d&c) and the specific application area approval for each colorant in each target market.
How It Works: Colour arises from selective wavelength absorption by the chromophore structure — electronic transitions (d-orbital for transition metal pigments; π→π* for organic chromophores) absorb specific visible wavelengths providing the perceived complementary colour.
Typically Found In: Colour cosmetics
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Active ingredient – mineral / metal active
Secondary Functions: Antimicrobial,sebum regulation,antioxidant enzyme cofactor
Application Areas:
Facial Skincare
Body Care
Hair Care
Beard Care
Color Cosmetics (Makeup)
Dietary/Oral Supplements
Typical Concentration Range: Per product type — check fda/eu permitted list
SOURCING & ETHICS
Vegan Status: Conditional - supplier confirmation required
Halal Status: Conditional - basis not stated in source record; supplier origin confirmation required to determine what evidence applies
Source Notes: Mineral/inorganic compound. cosmetic or pharmaceutical grade. [audit 2026-07-29 rev2: status downgraded on audit. determination requires shariah-panel sign-off.]
SKIN COMPATIBILITY
Irritancy Rating: 1/5 – very low
