Flagged ingredients (11)

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

Parfum

fragrance

Severity 7/10Editorial
Sensitive skin: Best avoidedPregnancy: Use with cautionBabies & kids: Best avoidedEczema-prone: Best avoided
  • Allergy risk:Fragrance is the single most common cause of cosmetic contact allergy.
  • Irritation:Frequent trigger of stinging and redness on reactive skin.
Caredermis curated dermatological review

An umbrella term that can hide dozens of undisclosed scent chemicals. Fragrance is the leading cause of allergic contact dermatitis from cosmetics, and dermatologists routinely advise fragrance-free products for eczema, babies and sensitive skin.

Alcohol

solvent

Severity 4/10Editorial
Sensitive skin: Use with cautionDry skin: Use with cautionEczema-prone: High caution
  • Irritation:Drying when high on the ingredient list; negligible in trace amounts.

Plain ethanol — position on the label matters: near the top it is drying; near the bottom it is a harmless solvent trace.

Phenoxyethanol

preservative

Severity 3/10
Babies & kids: Use with caution
  • Irritation:Occasional stinging and irritation, mostly around eyes and on damaged skin.
EU CLP Eye Dam. 1 ↗

Today's most common preservative, considered safe by the SCCS up to 1%. French authorities advise avoiding it in wipes and diaper-area products for children under 3 as a precaution.

Severity 4/10Editorial
Sensitive skin: Use with caution
  • Allergy risk:Degradation products can cause photoallergy when unstabilized.

The main UVA filter in US sunscreens. Safe when properly stabilized, but it breaks down in sunlight into potentially sensitizing fragments in poorly formulated products.

Ethylhexylglycerin

preservative booster · skin conditioning

Severity 2/10
  • Irritation:Documented occasional contact allergy and eye irritation.
EU CLP Eye Dam. 1 ↗

A preservative booster often paired with phenoxyethanol; low-risk overall with rare reports of contact allergy.

Potassium Sorbate

preservative

Severity 2/10
  • Irritation:Occasional transient stinging or redness on sensitive skin.
EU CLP Eye Irrit. 2 ↗

A mild food-grade preservative usually paired with sodium benzoate; well tolerated by most skin types.

Disodium EDTA

chelating agent

Severity 3/10Editorial
  • Environmental impact:Poorly biodegradable; can remobilize heavy metals in waterways.

A metal-binding stabilizer that is safe on skin at the tiny amounts used; its criticism is environmental persistence.

Sodium Benzoate

preservative

Severity 2/10Editorial
  • Irritation:Can cause transient, non-allergic flushing/stinging on reactive skin.

A food-grade preservative generally regarded as one of the gentler options; occasional non-immune stinging is its main drawback.

CI 42090

colorant

Severity 2/10Editorial
  • Allergy risk:Rare reports of sensitivity.

A widely approved blue dye with a benign cosmetic safety record.

Ascorbic Acid

antioxidant · brightener

Severity 2/10Editorial
  • Irritation:Low-pH formulas can sting reactive skin.

Pure vitamin C — a proven antioxidant and brightener whose acidic formulas may tingle on sensitive skin; derivatives are gentler.

CI 61565/GREEN 6Regulatory dataAllergy riskEU CosIng Annex III (declarable / restricted)

Pore-clogging potential (1)

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 (19)

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

Recognized ingredients (6)

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 enough data (2)

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.
