Flagged ingredients (10)

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

Alcohol Denat.

solvent · astringent

Severity 5/10Editorial
Sensitive skin: High cautionDry skin: High cautionBabies & kids: Use with cautionEczema-prone: Best avoided
  • Irritation:Drying and barrier-disrupting in high-alcohol formulas with regular use.

Denatured ethanol gives products a fast-drying, weightless feel, but as a leading ingredient it degrades the skin barrier with repeated use — a poor match for dry, sensitive or eczema-prone skin.

Parfum

  • 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.

Linalool

Severity 5/10
Sensitive skin: Use with cautionEczema-prone: High caution
  • Allergy risk:EU-declarable allergen; oxidized linalool is a common patch-test positive.
EU CLP Skin Sens. 1B ↗EU CosIng Annex III (declarable / restricted) ↗

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.

No concerns found (3)

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

Not enough data (3)

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.
