moisturizing and nourishing conditioner

1. INCI & CAS

INCI: Glycerin · CAS: 56-81-5

2. Role in the formula

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

3. Typical use levels (formulation guide)

• For gels and serums, use 3–8% as a formulation guide.
• The level shown for creams is 2–5% for the formula.
• For rinse-off, the recorded level is 2–4% for the formula.

The water phase is the addition point for Glycerin; a separate melt is unnecessary.

4. Regulatory sources & global compliance

• If Glycerin appears in CosIng, its entry is informational and does not approve a specific grade or finished cosmetic.
• For a cosmetic sold in the EU, Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 requires a safety assessment covering the complete formulation with Glycerin 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

Use the stated level as reference guidance for cosmetic formulation; it makes no claim of drug or OTC authorization with patch response and finished-product stability still to be verified.

6. Stability & packaging

Hold the bulk material in a sealed, cool place shielded from light; review airless or pump options if oxidation presents a concern; follow with stability and packaging checks on the confirmed batch.

7. Claims language (Do / Don’t)

• The formulation note describes Glycerin as part of a cosmetic direction focused on humectant function.

• The ingredient guidance does not demonstrate claims of drug activity, a clinical cure, or an undocumented product certification.
• This reference for Glycerin should not be cited in support of whitening, acne-treatment, antiperspirant, sun-protection, or hair-growth benefits.

1. INCI & CAS

INCI: Squalane · CAS: 111-01-3

2. Role in the formula

As a hydrocarbon emollient, squalane offers stability; the grade in this guide is plant-derived rather than mineral oil.

3. Typical use levels (formulation guide)

• Gel-creams: 2–6%.
• For dry oils, use 10–30%.
• The balms use-level reference is 5–15% as a formulation guide.

Add Squalane to the oil phase; no high-shear wax step is required.

4. Regulatory sources & global compliance

• The CosIng record for Squalane, where listed, is informational rather than product-specific authorization.
• Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 sets the requirement for the final cosmetic with Squalane to undergo a safety assessment rather than for an ingredient name alone.
• Confirm the received Squalane grade against supplier documentation, then verify the intended market's filing requirements.

5. Safety & risk assessment

The percentage is shown for cosmetic development; no drug approval or OTC-monograph status follows from this guide so patch response and stability should be checked on the finished product.

6. Stability & packaging

Store the bulk in a closed container in a cool, shaded place; for oxidation-sensitive formulas, consider an airless or pump pack; confirm final stability and pack compatibility on a representative batch.

7. Claims language (Do / Don’t)

• The formulation note describes Squalane as part of a cosmetic direction focused on a light-emollient role.

• This cosmetic guide cannot verify claims of drug activity, a clinical cure, or an undocumented product certification.
• The ingredient record for Squalane offers no support for whitening, acne care as treatment, perspiration reduction, sun protection, or hair growth.

1. INCI & CAS

INCI: Butyrospermum Parkii Butter · CAS: 91080-23-8

2. Role in the formula

For creams, balms, and hair creams, shea butter supplies the triglyceride-butter cushion role; unrefined color and aroma are not presumed.

3. Typical use levels (formulation guide)

• For creams, the recorded level is 2–8% as a formulation guide.
• Balms and butters: 10–25% as a formulation guide.

For Butyrospermum Parkii Butter, use an oil-phase melt and shear during cool-down to limit grain formation.

4. Regulatory sources & global compliance

• Use CosIng's information on Butyrospermum Parkii Butter as a reference, then verify the specific grade and intended use under market rules.
• The finished-product provisions of Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 require the final cosmetic with Butyrospermum Parkii Butter to undergo a safety assessment before the cosmetic is placed on the EU market.
• Check the supplier's technical information for the Butyrospermum Parkii Butter grade and confirm the relevant market filing list.

5. Safety & risk assessment

This formulation note gives a cosmetic-use reference level; the listed level does not itself confer drug or OTC status so the finished cosmetic should receive patch and stability checks.

6. Stability & packaging

Keep the ingredient in cool, closed bulk storage away from sunlight; where oxidation is a concern, evaluate airless or pump packaging; confirm final stability and pack compatibility on a representative batch.

7. Claims language (Do / Don’t)

• The formulation note describes Butyrospermum Parkii Butter as part of a cosmetic direction focused on shea cushion.

• This product entry is not evidence of drug claims, cure claims, or a certification that is absent from the product records.
• The ingredient note for Butyrospermum Parkii Butter should not be cited in support of whitening, acne-treatment, antiperspirant, sun-protection, or hair-growth benefits.
