Driven by Theobroma Cacao Seed Butter (Caredermis editorial assessment)
Ingredients with a documented concern, from official datasets and our reviewed database.
emollient
A rich body butter that is highly comedogenic on facial skin — great for body, risky for breakout-prone faces.
solvent
Plain ethanol — position on the label matters: near the top it is drying; near the bottom it is a harmless solvent trace.
fragrance
A floral scent molecule found in lavender and many essential oils. It oxidizes on air exposure into strongly sensitizing compounds, which is why it must be declared on EU labels.
fragrance · solvent
The citrus-peel scent molecule. Like linalool, it becomes allergenic mainly after oxidizing in opened products.
exfoliant · humectant
A gentler AHA that exfoliates and hydrates simultaneously; the usual pick for drier or more reactive skin starting acids.
preservative
A mild food-grade preservative usually paired with sodium benzoate; well tolerated by most skin types.
preservative
A food-grade preservative generally regarded as one of the gentler options; occasional non-immune stinging is its main drawback.
Ingredients rated likely to clog pores — relevant if your skin is acne-prone. This is a separate indicator and is not part of the safety score.
Indicative Fulton-scale ratings from published dermatology references — not a regulator classification; individual reactions vary.
Ingredients that are unflagged in our reviewed database, reviewed safe by the CIR panel, or on an EU permitted list.
Catalogued in official cosmetic-ingredient inventories (EU CosIng and others) with no safety flag on record. Being recognized isn't a safety guarantee — it means the ingredient is on record but no authority has published a concern.
Not found in any dataset we hold (often trade-name blends or very niche ingredients), so we can't assess them — this is not a safety judgment either way.
This report is informational, not medical advice. Assessments summarize published findings (EU CosIng, IARC, ECHA, CIR, SCCS and others) about ingredients — not clinical testing of this specific product. Exposure, concentration and individual sensitivity all matter. Consult a dermatologist for medical concerns.
