Flagged ingredients (9)

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

Severity 5/10Editorial
Oily & acne-prone: Best avoided
  • Pore-clogging:One of the most consistently comedogenic emollients in rabbit-ear and human assays.

A silky-feel emollient that repeatedly tops comedogenicity rankings — acne-prone users should watch for it in face products.

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.

Phenoxyethanol

preservative

Severity 3/10
Babies & kids: Use with caution
  • Irritation:Occasional stinging and irritation, mostly around eyes and on damaged skin.
EU CLP Eye Dam. 1 ↗

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.

Lactic Acid

exfoliant · humectant

Severity 3/10Editorial
Sensitive skin: Use with cautionBabies & kids: Use with cautionEczema-prone: Use with caution
  • Irritation:Milder than glycolic; still increases photosensitivity.

A gentler AHA that exfoliates and hydrates simultaneously; the usual pick for drier or more reactive skin starting acids.

Urea

humectant · keratolytic

Severity 2/10Editorial
  • Irritation:Above ~10% it becomes keratolytic and can sting on broken skin.
EU CosIng Annex II (prohibited in cosmetics) ↗

A natural moisturizing factor: hydrating below 10%, callus-softening above. Valuable in eczema care despite stinging on open skin.

Potassium Sorbate

preservative

Severity 2/10
  • Irritation:Occasional transient stinging or redness on sensitive skin.
EU CLP Eye Irrit. 2 ↗

A mild food-grade preservative usually paired with sodium benzoate; well tolerated by most skin types.

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 (13)

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

Recognized ingredients (2)

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.

  • PANTOLACTONE· humectant, skin conditioning
  • HYDROXYPROPYL STARCH PHOSPHATE· bulking, viscosity controlling

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.

  • AMYGDALUS DULCIS GLYCERIN
  • CETEARYL INGREDIENTS: AQUA
  • PRUNUS DULCIS OIL

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.
