Zinc Oxide

1. INCI & CAS

INCI: Zinc Oxide · CAS: pending supplier / regulatory confirmation for the selected grade

2. Role in the formula

Zinc Oxide is carried as a named cosmetic ingredient for this SKU. Identity, assay and impurities are confirmed on the supplier TDS and COA. This page does not invent a CAS or a drug effect.

3. Typical use levels (formulation guide)

• The supplier TDS should determine the use level for the finished formula.

Refer to the supplier TDS for solvent, temperature and pH.

4. Regulatory sources & global compliance

• The CosIng record for Zinc Oxide, where listed, is informational rather than product-specific authorization.
• The EU Cosmetics Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 requires the completed product containing Zinc Oxide to receive its own safety assessment for the product in its final form.
• Review the documentation for the actual Zinc Oxide grade and the filing requirements for the target market.

5. Safety & risk assessment

Read the recorded level as a cosmetic formulation guide; it is not evidence of drug approval or OTC authorization so assess patch response and stability in the final formula.

6. Stability & packaging

Store the bulk in a closed container in a cool, shaded place; evaluate packaging against the formula's susceptibility to oxidation; check the final package and formula together for compatibility and stability.

7. Claims language (Do / Don’t)

• Names Zinc Oxide as a cosmetic ingredient on this SKU

• This product entry provides no basis for therapeutic effects, curative outcomes, or unsupported certification statements.
• The available details for Zinc Oxide should not be used to substantiate skin whitening, acne treatment, antiperspirant use, sun protection, or hair growth.

1. INCI & CAS

INCI: Glycerin · CAS: 56-81-5

2. Role in the formula

Glycerin fills a polyol-humectant role in the listed cosmetic formats. Read its percentage as formulation guidance, not an assay.

3. Typical use levels (formulation guide)

• Formulation guidance for gels and serums: 3–8%.
• 2–5% is listed for creams in this reference.
• The formulation record indicates 2–4% for rinse-off as a formulation guide.

Add Glycerin to the water phase; no separate melt step is needed.

4. Regulatory sources & global compliance

• Database information on Glycerin does not replace review of the supplied grade and finished product under market rules.
• The finished-product provisions of Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 require a safety review of the finished cosmetic in which Glycerin is used before the finished product is marketed.
• For Glycerin, check the purchased grade against its supplier TDS and review filing requirements in the destination market.

5. Safety & risk assessment

Read the recorded level as a cosmetic formulation guide; it does not authorize a drug or OTC product and the completed formula still requires stability and patch testing.

6. Stability & packaging

Store sealed bulk away from heat and sunlight; choose a package with oxidation sensitivity in view; follow with stability and packaging checks on the confirmed batch.

7. Claims language (Do / Don’t)

• For cosmetic use, this entry records Glycerin in a direction centered on humectant function.

• The ingredient guidance does not establish drug-treatment outcomes, clinical cures, or certifications not documented for the SKU.
• This cosmetic entry naming Glycerin should not be cited in support of skin whitening, treatment of acne, sweat control, UV protection, or hair-growth results.

1. INCI & CAS

INCI: Squalane · CAS: 111-01-3

2. Role in the formula

This reference identifies squalane as a stable hydrocarbon emollient and calls for a plant-derived grade, not mineral oil.

3. Typical use levels (formulation guide)

• The formulation record indicates 2–6% for gel-creams as a formulation guide.
• For dry oils, the reference gives 10–30% as a formulation guide.
• The stated reference for balms is 5–15%.

Incorporate Squalane in the oil phase without a separate high-shear wax step.

4. Regulatory sources & global compliance

• A CosIng entry naming Squalane does not by itself approve the purchased grade or complete cosmetic.
• EU cosmetics rules under Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 require an assessment addressing the safety of the finished product that contains Squalane for the complete formula intended for sale.
• For Squalane, check the purchased grade against its supplier TDS and review filing requirements in the destination market.

5. Safety & risk assessment

The guide records a level for cosmetic formulation purposes; the listed level does not itself confer drug or OTC status with patch assessment and finished-formula stability testing still required.

6. Stability & packaging

Keep bulk material sealed, cool, and out of direct sunlight; match the pack choice to the system's oxidation risk; check the finished formula and its packaging together.

7. Claims language (Do / Don’t)

• The cosmetic formulation concept for Squalane centers on a light-emollient role.

• This formulation entry does not demonstrate drug or therapeutic claims, clinical cures, or certification claims not confirmed for the product.
• This Squalane listing does not demonstrate whitening, acne treatment, antiperspirant effects, sunscreen use, or hair growth.
