Bentonite Clay

1. INCI et CAS

INCI: Kaolin · CAS: 1332-58-7

2. Rôle dans la formule

Hydrated aluminum silicate (kaolin) is included as a cosmetic clay, not as a drug absorbent.

3. Niveaux d'emploi typiques (repère de formulation)

• The stated reference for masks is 5–20% for the formula.
• For scrubs, the reference gives 2–8% for the formula.

Wet the clay before adding to a gum phase to limit clumps.

4. Sources réglementaires et conformité mondiale

• Treat any CosIng entry for Kaolin as a reference only; verify the grade and intended use under current market rules.
• Before EU placement, Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 requires an assessment of the safety of the final cosmetic containing Kaolin as a finished-product assessment.
• Compare the received Kaolin material with its supplier specification and review destination-market filing needs.

5. Sécurité et évaluation des risques

Use the stated level as reference guidance for cosmetic formulation; no drug approval or OTC status is conferred by this entry and the finished formula still needs patch and stability testing.

6. Stabilité et conditionnement

Protect sealed bulk from warmth and direct light; consider an airless or pump format when oxidation sensitivity warrants it; check the finished batch's stability and package compatibility.

7. Formulations d'allégations (à faire / à éviter)

• This guide frames Kaolin's cosmetic direction around kaolin clay.

• This product entry cannot substantiate drug or therapeutic claims, clinical cures, or certification claims not confirmed for the product.
• This guide to Kaolin does not demonstrate whitening, acne-treatment, antiperspirant, sun-protection, or hair-growth benefits.

1. INCI et CAS

INCI: Bentonite · CAS: 1302-78-9

2. Rôle dans la formule

Bentonite is a swelling clay. It can tighten a mask as it dries. Not a detox drug claim.

3. Niveaux d'emploi typiques (repère de formulation)

• The stated reference for masks is 1–5% in this reference.

Hydrate separately; it can lump.

4. Sources réglementaires et conformité mondiale

• The CosIng record for Bentonite, where listed, is informational rather than product-specific authorization.
• An EU-market cosmetic under Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 requires a safety evaluation of the product containing Bentonite as it will be marketed at the level of the finished cosmetic product.
• Match the selected Bentonite material to its supplier TDS and check the filing list for the market of sale.

5. Sécurité et évaluation des risques

This entry provides guidance for cosmetic use only; no drug approval or OTC-monograph status follows from this guide and the finished formula still needs patch and stability testing.

6. Stabilité et conditionnement

Store the bulk in a closed container in a cool, shaded place; where oxidation is a concern, evaluate airless or pump packaging; confirm stability and pack fit with the final formula.

7. Formulations d'allégations (à faire / à éviter)

• The cosmetic concept for Bentonite in this entry centers on bentonite mask.

• This reference does not substantiate drug claims, cure claims, or a certification that is absent from the product records.
• The cosmetic guidance for Bentonite does not demonstrate whitening, treatment of acne, perspiration control, sun protection, or hair growth.

1. INCI et CAS

INCI: Glycerin · CAS: 56-81-5

2. Rôle dans la formule

The listed glycerin role is that of a polyol humectant in cosmetic washes, gels, and emulsions; the amount is guidance only.

3. Niveaux d'emploi typiques (repère de formulation)

• For gels and serums, the recorded level is 3–8% in this reference.
• The creams use-level reference is 2–5%.
• The stated reference for rinse-off is 2–4% for the formula.

The guide places Glycerin in the water phase and calls for no melt step.

4. Sources réglementaires et conformité mondiale

• Use CosIng's information on Glycerin as a reference, then verify the specific grade and intended use under market rules.
• Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 requires a safety evaluation of the product containing Glycerin as it will be marketed before the finished product is marketed.
• Review the supplier TDS for the received Glycerin grade, together with the target market's current filing requirements.

5. Sécurité et évaluation des risques

Read the recorded level as a cosmetic formulation guide; it makes no claim of drug or OTC authorization and the finished formula still needs patch and stability testing.

6. Stabilité et conditionnement

Keep the bulk container closed and shaded in a cool area; match the pack choice to the system's oxidation risk; follow with stability and packaging checks on the confirmed batch.

7. Formulations d'allégations (à faire / à éviter)

• This guide frames Glycerin's cosmetic direction around humectant function.

• The formulation note provides no basis for claims of drug activity, a clinical cure, or an undocumented product certification.
• The available details for Glycerin does not substantiate whitening, treatment of acne, perspiration control, sun protection, or hair growth.
