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.

Severity 4/10Editorial
Oily & acne-prone: High caution
  • Pore-clogging:High comedogenicity rating in classic testing.

A close relative of isopropyl myristate with a similar pore-clogging reputation for acne-prone skin.

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.

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 (10)

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.

Exposure, concentration and individual sensitivity all matter. Consult a dermatologist for medical concerns.
