Comfort Emulsion Base

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)

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

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

4. Regulatory sources & global compliance

• A CosIng entry naming Glycerin does not by itself approve the purchased grade or complete cosmetic.
• EU market placement under Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 requires an assessment of the safety of the final cosmetic containing Glycerin for the completed formula, not simply for an ingredient in isolation.
• 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 should not be read as a drug authorization or OTC listing and patch and stability testing remain part of finished-product review.

6. Stability & packaging

Protect the sealed bulk from heat, sun, and unnecessary exposure; for oxidation-sensitive formulas, consider an airless or pump pack; check the final package and formula together for compatibility and stability.

7. Claims language (Do / Don’t)

• The cosmetic concept for Glycerin in this entry centers on humectant function.

• The formulation note does not establish drug or therapeutic claims, clinical cures, or certification claims not confirmed for the product.
• This reference for Glycerin does not demonstrate whitening effects, acne treatment, antiperspirant performance, sunscreen protection, or hair growth.

1. INCI & CAS

INCI: Squalane · CAS: 111-01-3

2. Role in the formula

A plant-derived grade of squalane is specified here. It is a stable hydrocarbon emollient and is distinct from mineral oil.

3. Typical use levels (formulation guide)

• The guide range for gel-creams is 2–6% in this reference.
• Formulation guidance for dry oils: 10–30% as a formulation guide.
• The formulation record indicates 5–15% for balms.

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

4. Regulatory sources & global compliance

• A CosIng entry naming Squalane does not by itself approve the purchased grade or complete cosmetic.
• The framework in Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 requires 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

Read the recorded level as a cosmetic formulation guide; it provides no evidence that a drug or OTC monograph applies so assess patch response and stability in the final formula.

6. Stability & packaging

Keep bulk material sealed, cool, and out of direct sunlight; where oxidation is a concern, evaluate airless or pump packaging; then verify formula stability and pack compatibility on the confirmed batch.

7. Claims language (Do / Don’t)

• The listed cosmetic direction for Squalane emphasizes a light-emollient role.

• The listed information does not demonstrate therapeutic effects, curative outcomes, or unsupported certification statements.
• The ingredient record for Squalane cannot verify a skin-lightening result, acne treatment, antiperspirant action, sunscreen efficacy, or hair growth.

1. INCI & CAS

INCI: Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride · CAS: 73398-61-5

2. Role in the formula

Lotions, balms, and cleansing oils are the formats where this guide assigns caprylic/capric triglyceride a light-oil role.

3. Typical use levels (formulation guide)

• For lotions, use 3–8% in this reference.
• For cleansing oils and balms, use 20–60% in this reference.

Route Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride through the oil phase.

4. Regulatory sources & global compliance

• Database information on Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride does not replace review of the supplied grade and finished product under market rules.
• EU cosmetics rules under Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 require the finished product's safety, including the formula in which Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride is used, to be assessed for the specific product as it will be marketed.
• Review the documentation for the actual Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride grade and the filing requirements for the target 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 final formula should undergo patch and stability assessment.

6. Stability & packaging

Keep the ingredient in cool, closed bulk storage away from sunlight; for oxidation-sensitive formulas, consider an airless or pump pack; assess the confirmed formula for stability and package compatibility.

7. Claims language (Do / Don’t)

• The recorded cosmetic positioning for Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride highlights light-triglyceride.

• This formulation entry provides no basis for drug effects, clinical cures, or unsupported product certifications.
• The information about Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride cannot verify whitening, acne care as treatment, perspiration reduction, sun protection, or hair growth.
