Parfum

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.

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
Sensitive skin: High cautionBabies & kids: Use with caution
  • Irritation:Unrectified bergamot oil is strongly phototoxic (berloque dermatitis).
  • Allergy risk:Contains declarable allergens limonene and linalool.

A citrus perfume oil that can cause dramatic burn-like pigmentation when skin is exposed to sun, unless the phototoxic bergapten has been removed.

Severity 4/10Editorial
Sensitive skin: Use with cautionEczema-prone: Use with caution
  • Allergy risk:Named Allergen of the Year 2004; impurities (amidoamine) drive most reactions.

A mild coconut-derived surfactant in countless 'gentle' cleansers. Most allergy is caused by manufacturing impurities, so quality varies by brand.

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.

Pore-clogging potential (2)

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 (7)

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

Recognized ingredients (3)

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.

  • SODIUM METHYL COCOYL TAURATE· surfactant - cleansing
  • STEARAMIDOPROPYL DIMETHYLAMINE· antistatic, hair conditioning, surfactan…
  • SEA SALT· abrasive, humectant, skin conditioning
