Silicones and Film Formers

• Cyclopentasiloxane: Available as Cyclopentasiloxane (Low-Odor Cyclomethicone). This is a lightweight, fast-evaporating silicone that provides a smooth, non-sticky feel.
• Dimethicone: Various viscosities are available, such as Dimethicone (Light/50, Low-Odor) and Dimethicone (Ultra Light/1.5, Low-Odor). These silicones offer a smooth feel and can help with spreadability.
• Polymethyl methacrylate: Available as SoftTouch 7™ (PMMA 7 Micron, Soft Focus, Slip). This powder can improve texture, provide a soft-focus effect, and help camouflage wrinkles.
• Cetyl PEG/PPG 10/1 Dimethicone: While this exact ingredient might not be available, a related water-soluble silicone, PEG/PPG-20/15 Dimethicone, is available and can provide a smooth texture in water-based formulas.

UV Filters

• Titanium Dioxide: Several options are available, including Titanium Dioxide Nanosil, Titanium Dioxide 30nm SilkTouch™ (Polymethylsilsesquioxane Treated), and Titanium Dioxide 300nm WaterProof™ (Triethoxycaprylylsilane Treated). These provide UV protection and coverage.
• Octyl methoxycinnamate (Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate) and Ethylhexyl Salicylate: Ethylhexyl Salicylate is available as Octisalate / Ethylhexyl Salicylate / Octyl Salicylate, which is an organic UVB sunscreen.

Humectants and Solvents

• Propylene Glycol: Available as Propylene Glycol, which acts as a lubricant, solvent, and humectant.
• Glycerin: Available as Glycerin (USP/Food Grade), a common humectant that attracts and retains moisture.

Powders and Pigments

• Talc: Available in different forms like Talc Powder (5 Micron, Methicone Coated) and Talc Powder (Non-Coated, 325 Mesh, >90% Whiteness). Talc provides whiteness, softness, and can help with coverage.
• Mica: Available in coated forms such as Mica Powder (20 Micron, Methicone Coated) and Mica Powder (20 Micron, Silane Coated). Mica adds softness, lightness, and natural coverage.
• Iron Oxides (CI77492, CI77491, CI77499): Available as Iron Oxides Yellow (Ultra-fine, Methicone-Coated), Iron Oxides Red (Ultra-fine, Methicone-Coated), and Iron Oxides Black (Ultra-fine, Methicone-Coated). These are used for coloring the foundation. Triethoxycaprylysilane is often used as a coating for these pigments to improve water resistance and dispersion.

Other Functional Ingredients

• Salicylic Acid: Available as Salicylic Acid (BHA), known for its exfoliating and pore-clearing properties.
• Bisabolol: Available as Natural Bisabolol (Brazil Chamomile) and Bisabolol (Alpha Bisabolol, Bisabolol RAC). These ingredients help reduce skin irritation.
