Butylphenyl Methylpropional

fragrance

Severity 7/10

Sensitive skin: High cautionPregnancy: Best avoidedBabies & kids: Best avoidedEczema-prone: High caution

Hormone disruption:Classified as toxic to reproduction (CMR 1B); banned in the EU since March 2022.
Allergy risk:Well-documented fragrance sensitizer.

EU CLP Repr. 1B ↗EU CosIng Annex II (prohibited in cosmetics) ↗

The lily-of-the-valley scent 'Lilial', banned in EU cosmetics in 2022 after being classified as presumed toxic to human reproduction. Still legal in some other markets — check older or imported products.

Diazolidinyl Urea

preservative

Severity 6/10

Sensitive skin: High cautionPregnancy: Use with cautionBabies & kids: Use with cautionEczema-prone: Best avoided

Cancer concern:Formaldehyde releaser (IARC Group 1 substance).
Allergy risk:Contact allergen; stronger releaser than imidazolidinyl urea.

EU CosIng Annex V: releases formaldehyde (IARC Group 1) ↗

A formaldehyde-releasing preservative common in lotions and cleansers, and a recognized cause of preservative contact allergy.

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.

Linalool

fragrance

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.

Triethanolamine

ph adjuster · emulsifier

Severity 3/10Editorial

Sensitive skin: Use with caution

Irritation:Irritating at higher concentrations or in leave-on products.
Allergy risk:Occasional contact allergen.

A pH adjuster that is safe in itself but should not be combined with formaldehyde releasers or bronopol, which can convert it to nitrosamines.

No concerns found (4)

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

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.
