About this deal

As you might guess from the “pro” part, it’s a precursor to vitamin B5 (whose fancy name is pantothenic acid). In a 2001 worldwide study with 178 people with known sensitization to fragrances citronellol tested positive in 5. As an example, it mentions that Ci 19140 may cause itching and hives in some people but the colorant is always labeled so that you can avoid it if you are sensitive.

The big difference is supposed to be that chemical agents absorb UV-light while physical agents reflect it like a bunch of mini umbrellas on top of the skin. A thick, high molecular weight silicone that is usually diluted in another, lighter silicone fluid (like dimethicone or cyclopentasiloxane). The cosmetic's industry is trying to solve the problem by combining avobenzone with other UV filters that enhance its stability (like octocrylene, Tinosorb S or Ensulizole) or by encapsulating it and while both solutions help, neither is perfect. A fatty alcohol (the non-drying type) that is used to increase the viscosity of the formula and stabilize emulsions. In cosmetics, it’s often in products that are supposed to keep your skin matte as it has great oil-absorbing abilities.

Anyway, it doesn't matter if it reflects or absorbs, Titanium Dioxide is a pretty awesome sunscreen agent for two main reasons: it gives a nice broad spectrum coverage and it's highly stable.

It’s a common fragrance ingredient that is one of the “EU 26 fragrances” that has to be labelled separately (and cannot be simply included in the term “fragrance/perfume” on the label) because of allergen potential. The natural, healthy, pinkish glow that Natural White imparts to skin is immediately noticeable from the moment you apply it. An extremely common multitasker ingredient that gives your skin a nice soft feel (emollient) and gives body to creams and lotions. If you are someone who likes to know what you put on your face then fragrance is not your best friend - there's no way to know what’s really in it. It is a polymer (created from repeating subunits) molecule and has different molecular weight and thus different viscosity versions from water-light to thick liquid.Exactly what it sounds: nice smelling stuff put into cosmetic products so that the end product also smells nice.

As with all fragrance ingredients, citronellol can also cause allergic contact dermatitis and should be avoided if you have perfume allergy. It's usually a hydroglycolic extract (though oil extract for the lipid parts also exists) that has similar moisturizing, emollient and anti-inflammatory properties as the juice itself. A light, velvety, unique skin feel liquid that is a good solvent and also makes the skin feel nice and smooth (aka emollient).The English translation is, so far it looks like sunscreens with nanoparticles do stay on the surface of the skin where they should be. I live in a city with killing summers and freezing winters; so it becomes a bit difficult to put on anything in summer but the moisturization is moderate and facilitates you in summer, but not in winters. The resulting cream or lotion has great cosmetic properties with good spreadability and an enhanced soft skin feel. Also, works well to fill in fine lines and wrinkles and give skin a plump look (of course that is only temporary, but still, it's nice). Well, it used to be referred to as microbeads, as it was banned in 2015 in the " Microbead-Free Waters Act" due to the small plastic spheres accumulating in the waters and looking like food to fish.

An often used glycol that works as a solvent, humectant, penetration enhancer and also gives a good slip to the products. As for skincare, it makes the skin silky smooth, creates a subtle gloss and forms a protective barrier (aka occlusive).

The unique non-greasy formulation gets easily absorbed deep into the skin and does not leave any superficial residue. A handy multi-tasker, white to light yellowish oil-loving wax that works very well in oil-in-water emulsions.
