Calming Repair Gel

1. INCI & CAS

INCI: Glycerin · CAS: 56-81-5

2. Role in the formula

This entry describes glycerin as a polyol humectant for gels, emulsions, and washes, with a guide level rather than a batch result.

3. Typical use levels (formulation guide)

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

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

4. Regulatory sources & global compliance

• An entry for Glycerin in CosIng is not authorization for a material grade or completed cosmetic; review local requirements.
• For cosmetics placed on the EU market, Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 requires an assessment addressing the safety of the finished product that contains Glycerin for the product in its final form.
• Match the selected Glycerin material to its supplier TDS and check the filing list for the market of sale.

5. Safety & risk assessment

This entry provides guidance for cosmetic use only; the note establishes neither drug approval nor OTC-monograph status so assess patch response and stability in the final formula.

6. Stability & packaging

Keep bulk material sealed, cool, and out of direct sunlight; consider an airless or pump format when oxidation sensitivity warrants it; use batch testing to verify stability and package compatibility.

7. Claims language (Do / Don’t)

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

• This cosmetic guide provides no basis for drug-treatment outcomes, clinical cures, or certifications not documented for the SKU.
• The documented facts for Glycerin does not support whitening, acne care as treatment, perspiration reduction, sun protection, or hair growth.

1. INCI & CAS

INCI: Propanediol · CAS: 504-63-2

2. Role in the formula

This cosmetic-formulation note assigns 1,3-propanediol humectant and solvent functions; the ingredient is not propylene glycol.

3. Typical use levels (formulation guide)

• 2–8% is listed for most water chassis.

Incorporate Propanediol in the water phase.

4. Regulatory sources & global compliance

• If CosIng lists Propanediol, that listing remains ingredient information; check rules for the intended market and use.
• EU cosmetics rules under Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 require a safety evaluation of the product containing Propanediol as it will be marketed for the product in its final form.
• Check the supplier's technical information for the Propanediol grade and confirm the relevant market filing list.

5. Safety & risk assessment

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

6. Stability & packaging

Maintain cool, closed, light-protected storage for the bulk material; take oxidation sensitivity into account when selecting the final pack; follow with stability and packaging checks on the confirmed batch.

7. Claims language (Do / Don’t)

• The recorded cosmetic positioning for Propanediol highlights propanediol solvent.

• The development record does not establish drug-treatment outcomes, clinical cures, or certifications not documented for the SKU.
• The Propanediol entry does not establish a whitening result, acne-treatment effect, antiperspirant use, sunscreen performance, or hair growth.

1. INCI & CAS

INCI: Hydroxyethylcellulose · CAS: 9004-62-0

2. Role in the formula

HEC builds clear gels without a carbomer neutralization story.

3. Typical use levels (formulation guide)

• Formulation guidance for gels: 0.3–0.8% for the formula.

Disperse in glycerin or water and hydrate fully.

4. Regulatory sources & global compliance

• CosIng provides reference information for Hydroxyethylcellulose; confirm the specific grade and intended use against market requirements.
• EU market placement under Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 requires a safety review of the finished cosmetic in which Hydroxyethylcellulose is used at the level of the finished cosmetic product.
• Use the supplier TDS to confirm grade-specific details for Hydroxyethylcellulose and review the destination market's requirements.

5. Safety & risk assessment

This entry provides guidance for cosmetic use only; the listed level does not itself confer drug or OTC status and the finished formula still needs patch and stability testing.

6. Stability & packaging

Hold the bulk material in a sealed, cool place shielded from light; take oxidation sensitivity into account when selecting the final pack; check the finished batch's stability and package compatibility.

7. Claims language (Do / Don’t)

• This guide frames Hydroxyethylcellulose's cosmetic direction around clear-gel thickener.

• This formulation entry does not demonstrate drug-treatment outcomes, clinical cures, or certifications not documented for the SKU.
• The formulation record for Hydroxyethylcellulose does not confirm skin whitening, acne treatment, antiperspirant use, sun protection, or hair growth.
