hydrating and moisturizing moisturizer

1. INCI & CAS

INCI: Glycerin · CAS: 56-81-5

2. Role in the formula

Glycerin serves as the polyol humectant in these cosmetic formats, while the stated percentage remains a formulation reference.

3. Typical use levels (formulation guide)

• The stated reference for gels and serums is 3–8% as a formulation guide.
• Creams: 2–5% for the formula.
• The stated reference for rinse-off is 2–4%.

Incorporate Glycerin in the water phase without a separate melt step.

4. Regulatory sources & global compliance

• CosIng may identify Glycerin as an ingredient, but its entry does not approve a material grade or finished formula.
• For cosmetics placed on the EU market, Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 requires a safety assessment covering the complete formulation with Glycerin in the final product context.
• Use the supplier TDS to confirm grade-specific details for Glycerin and review the destination market's requirements.

5. Safety & risk assessment

This entry provides guidance for cosmetic use only; it does not qualify a finished product as a drug or OTC product with patch response and finished-product stability still to be verified.

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 compatibility and stability using the selected formula and pack.

7. Claims language (Do / Don’t)

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

• The available ingredient details does not support drug-treatment outcomes, clinical cures, or certifications not documented for the SKU.
• The Glycerin entry cannot establish whitening, treatment of acne, perspiration control, sun protection, or hair growth.

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)

• The level shown for gel-creams is 2–6%.
• The guide range for dry oils is 10–30% as a formulation guide.
• The stated reference for balms is 5–15% for the formula.

The oil phase is the addition point for Squalane, with no high-shear wax operation.

4. Regulatory sources & global compliance

• Database information on Squalane 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 assessment covering the complete formulation with Squalane before the finished product is marketed.
• Confirm the actual Squalane grade from supplier documentation and check requirements where the product will be sold.

5. Safety & risk assessment

The use-level note is a reference for cosmetic formulation; it does not authorize a drug or OTC product and the finished formula still needs patch and stability testing.

6. Stability & packaging

Keep bulk material sealed, cool, and out of direct sunlight; select packaging with the formula's oxidation sensitivity in mind; test the selected package with the confirmed batch for stability and fit.

7. Claims language (Do / Don’t)

• The cosmetic concept for Squalane in this entry centers on a light-emollient role.

• The listed information is not evidence of claims of drug action or cure, or a product certification outside the supporting records.
• The ingredient record for Squalane should not be cited in support of whitening, acne treatment, antiperspirant effects, sunscreen use, or hair growth.

1. INCI & CAS

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

2. Role in the formula

In creams, balms, and hair creams, shea butter is the cushion-providing triglyceride butter. No unrefined appearance or scent is specified.

3. Typical use levels (formulation guide)

• The formulation record indicates 2–8% for creams for the formula.
• For balms and butters, use 10–25% as a formulation guide.

The listed method melts Butyrospermum Parkii Butter into oil and maintains shear as the blend cools to reduce graining.

4. Regulatory sources & global compliance

• CosIng information about Butyrospermum Parkii Butter does not itself authorize a particular grade or finished cosmetic.
• Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 sets the requirement for the final cosmetic with Butyrospermum Parkii Butter to undergo a safety assessment as part of the finished cosmetic's safety documentation.
• Verify the purchased Butyrospermum Parkii Butter grade using supplier data, alongside the applicable filing rules for the destination market.

5. Safety & risk assessment

Read the recorded level as a cosmetic formulation guide; no drug approval or OTC status is conferred by this entry so patch response and stability should be checked on the finished product.

6. Stability & packaging

Keep the bulk container closed and shaded in a cool area; review airless or pump options if oxidation presents a concern; then verify formula stability and pack compatibility on the confirmed batch.

7. Claims language (Do / Don’t)

• This guide frames Butyrospermum Parkii Butter's cosmetic direction around shea cushion.

• The cosmetic listing does not support claims of drug activity, a clinical cure, or an undocumented product certification.
• The cosmetic guidance for Butyrospermum Parkii Butter cannot verify whitening, acne-treatment, antiperspirant, sun-protection, or hair-growth benefits.
