Anastasia Beverly Hills Lip Velvet Full Pigment Lip Mousse

Ingredients explained

Dimethicone

What-it-does: emollient | Irritancy: 0 | Comedogenicity: 1

Probably themost common silicone of all. It is a polymer (created from repeating subunits) molecule and has different molecular weight and thus different viscosity versions from water-light to thickliquid.

As for skincare, it makes the skin silky smooth, creates a subtle gloss and forms a protective barrier (aka occlusive). Also, works well to fill in fine lines and wrinkles and give skin a plump look (of course that is only temporary, but still, it'snice). There are also scar treatment gels out there using dimethicone as their base ingredient. It helps to soften scars and increase their elasticity.

As for hair care, it is a non-volatile silicone meaning that it stays on the hair rather than evaporates from it andsmoothes the hairlike no other thing. Depending on your hair type, it can bea bit difficult to wash out and might cause some build-up (btw, this is not true to all silicones, only the non-volatile types).

Dimethicone/​Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer

What-it-does: viscosity controlling

A white, elastomeric silicone powder that gives a nice silky and powdery feel to the products. It also has some oil and sebum absorptioncapabilities.

Isododecane

What-it-does: emollient, solvent

Aclear, colorless and odorless, highly volatile (meaning it does not absorb into the skin but evaporates from it) liquid that's used as an emollient. It gives a nicenon-oily light skin feeland it can improvethe slip of the formula without leaving a tacky residue behind.

It's also popular in make-up products as its volatility makes mascarasand foundations last longer. If that would not be enough, it's also an excellent solvent, and it's a regular not only on the ingredients lists of make-ups but also on makeup removers.

Silk Powder

Tribehenin

What-it-does: emollient

It's the triglyceride of behenic acid that works as a thickening or gelling agent, as a compacting agent for pressed powders, and improves heat stability of emulsions.

Polyglyceryl-2 Triisostearate

What-it-does: emulsifying

Vinyl Dimethicone/​Methicone Silsesquioxane Crosspolymer

What-it-does: viscosity controlling

This bamboozling INCI name is given to aspherical silicone powder that has an elastic silicone rubber inner partand a harder silicone resin outer part.

It gives formulas a uniquely soft, silky feeling,and has a mattifying and soft focus effect. It is available in different particle sizes and the larger the particle the more line/pore filling effect the powder has.

VP/​Hexadecene Copolymer

What-it-does: viscosity controlling

Diisostearyl Malate

What-it-does: emollient, surfactant/cleansing

Anastasia Beverly Hills Lip Velvet Full Pigment Lip Mousse ingredients (Explained) (6) We don't have description for this ingredient yet.

Lauryl PEG-9 Polydimethylsiloxyethyl Dimethicone

What-it-does: emulsifying, surfactant/cleansing

The snappily named Lauryl Peg-9 Polydimethylsiloxyethyl Dimethicone is a silicone emulsifier fluid whose main thing is being a good dispersantfor powders such as mineral UV filtersor color pigments.

According to the manufacturer Kobo, this partly water- and partly oily soluble form of dimethicone helps filters like Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide disperse more evenly and thus provide better UV protection while also minimizing any white-cast that often comes hand-in-hand with mineral filters.

This is why it can also be found in makeup products like eyeshadows and concealers, as it helps disperse color pigments in the same way.

Sorbitan Sesquiisostearate

What-it-does: emulsifying

A light yellow liquid with vegetable origin that helps water and oil to mix togeather. It's most commonlyused in foundation formulas.

Triethoxycaprylylsilane

A clear, light yellow liquid that is used to coat pigments (such as inorganic sunscreen agents or colorants) in cosmetic products. The coating helps to stabilize pigments in the formulas and also helps them to spread easily and evenly on the skin.

Polyglyceryl-2 Diisostearate

What-it-does: emulsifying

Anastasia Beverly Hills Lip Velvet Full Pigment Lip Mousse ingredients (Explained) (7) We don't have description for this ingredient yet.

Fragrance/​Parfum - icky

Also-called: Fragrance, Parfum;Parfum/Fragrance | What-it-does: perfuming

Exactly what it sounds: nice smelling stuff put into cosmetic products so that the end product also smells nice. Fragrance in the US and parfum in the EU is a generic term on the ingredient list that is made up of 30 to 50 chemicals on average (but it can have as much as 200 components!).

If you are someone who likes to know what you put on your face then fragrance is not your best friend - there's no way to know what’s really in it.

Also, if your skin is sensitive, fragrance is again not your best friend. It’s the number one cause of contact allergy to cosmetics. It’s definitely a smart thing to avoid with sensitive skin (and fragrance of any type - natural is just as allergic as synthetic, if not worse!).

Benzyl Benzoate - icky

What-it-does: solvent, perfuming, antimicrobial/antibacterial

A common fragrance ingredient that has a faint sweet balsamic smell. It can also be a solvent and canfight against microbes and insects very well.

It's one of the “EU 26 fragrances” that has to be labelled separately because ofallergen potential. Best to avoid if your skin is sensitive.

Titanium Dioxide (Ci 77891)

Also-called: Titanium Dioxide/Ci 77891;Ci 77891 | What-it-does: colorant | Irritancy: 0 | Comedogenicity: 0

Ci 77891 is the color code of titaniumdioxide.It's a white pigment with great color consistency and dispersibility.

Iron Oxides (Ci 77491, Ci 77492)

Also-called: Ci 77491/77492/77499 | What-it-does: colorant | Irritancy: 0 | Comedogenicity: 0

A bit of a sloppy ingredient name as it covers not one butthree pigments: red, yellow and black iron oxide.

The triois invaluable for "skin-colored" makeup products (think your foundation and pressed powder) as blendingthese three shades carefully can produce almost any shade of natural-looking flesh tones.

Red 7 Lake (Ci 15850)

Also-called: Red 6, Red 7;Ci 15850 | What-it-does: colorant | Irritancy: 0 | Comedogenicity: 1
