Ingredients with a documented concern, from official datasets and our reviewed database.
absorbent · texturizer
A mineral powder at the center of major litigation and a 2024 IARC upgrade to 'probably carcinogenic'. Regulators specifically warn against powder use on babies (inhalation risk); cornstarch is the standard substitute.
preservative
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.
occlusive · emollient
Highly refined mineral oil is an inert, non-sensitizing emollient. Its bad reputation comes from industrial-grade oils that are never permitted in cosmetics.
uv filter · pigment
A mineral UV filter and pigment that is one of the safest sunscreen choices in cream form; the inhalation-based cancer classification only matters for powder and spray formats.
preservative booster · skin conditioning
A preservative booster often paired with phenoxyethanol; low-risk overall with rare reports of contact allergy.
emollient · occlusive
The workhorse silicone — inert and non-sensitizing on skin (even FDA-approved as a skin protectant), with persistence in the environment as its main criticism.
pigment · pearlescent
The shimmer mineral in highlighters and glowy creams; safe on skin, with sourcing ethics being its real controversy.
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.
Ingredients that are unflagged in our reviewed database, reviewed safe by the CIR panel, or on an EU permitted list.
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.
