Flagged ingredients (5)

Ingredients with a documented concern, from official datasets and our reviewed database.

Severity 5/10Editorial
Oily & acne-prone: Best avoided
  • Pore-clogging:Rated 4/5 on the comedogenic scale; a frequent trigger of facial breakouts.

A beloved natural moisturizer for body and hair that is nonetheless one of the most pore-clogging oils on facial skin.

Severity 5/10Editorial
Oily & acne-prone: Best avoided
  • Pore-clogging:Rated 4/5 comedogenic; best kept off acne-prone facial skin.

A rich body butter that is highly comedogenic on facial skin — great for body, risky for breakout-prone faces.

Lanolin

emollient

Severity 4/10Editorial
Sensitive skin: Use with cautionEczema-prone: Use with caution
  • Allergy risk:Long-recognized contact allergen, particularly on eczematous or ulcerated skin.
  • Pore-clogging:Some derivatives are mildly comedogenic.

Wool wax — a superb emollient (and nipple balm staple) whose allergy risk is mostly relevant to people with chronic eczema or leg ulcers; modern purified grades react less.

Pore-clogging potential (3)

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.

No concerns found (6)

Ingredients that are unflagged in our reviewed database, reviewed safe by the CIR panel, or on an EU permitted list.

Recognized ingredients (1)

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.

  • rebaudioside A· skin conditioning

Not enough data (6)

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.

  • ricinus communis (castor) seed oil
  • flavor
  • citrus nobilis (mandarin orange) fruit extract
  • carthamus tinctorius (safflower) seed oil
  • linalool &quot
  • natural flavor

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.
