Flagged ingredients (10)

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

Propylene Glycol

humectant · solvent

Severity 3/10Editorial
Sensitive skin: Use with cautionEczema-prone: High caution
  • Allergy risk:American Contact Dermatitis Society Allergen of the Year 2018.
  • Irritation:Can irritate compromised skin at higher concentrations.

A workhorse humectant and penetration enhancer that is fine for most, but a recurring culprit in eczema patients' patch tests.

Phenoxyethanol

preservative

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

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.

Cyclomethicone

emollient · solvent

Severity 6/10Editorial
Pregnancy: Use with caution
  • Environmental impact:CosIng identifies Cyclomethicone with octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane (D4), which is prohibited in EU cosmetics (Annex II) as persistent/bioaccumulative and a suspected reproductive toxicant.

A blanket INCI name for cyclic silicone blends. The EU CosIng database maps Cyclomethicone to D4, which is now prohibited in EU cosmetics; modern formulas replace it with D5/D6.

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.

Paraffinum Liquidum

occlusive · emollient

Severity 2/10Editorial
Oily & acne-prone: Use with caution
  • Pore-clogging:Cosmetic grade is minimally comedogenic despite its reputation.

Highly refined mineral oil is an inert, non-sensitizing emollient. Its bad reputation comes from industrial-grade oils that are never permitted in cosmetics.

Acrylates Copolymer

film former · thickener

Severity 4/10Editorial
  • Environmental impact:Synthetic polymer counted as a microplastic under the EU restriction when in particle form.

A common film-forming polymer scrutinized under the EU's microplastics restriction; skin safety itself is well established.

Ethylhexylglycerin

preservative booster · skin conditioning

Severity 2/10
  • Irritation:Documented occasional contact allergy and eye irritation.

A preservative booster often paired with phenoxyethanol; low-risk overall with rare reports of contact allergy.

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.

Mica

pigment · pearlescent

Severity 2/10Editorial
  • Environmental impact:Skin-safe; the ingredient's controversy is ethical (mining labor), not toxicological.

The shimmer mineral in highlighters and glowy creams; safe on skin, with sourcing ethics being its real controversy.

Recognized ingredients (8)

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.

Not enough data (7)

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.

  • Ethylhexyl Methoxycinneme Disopropyl adipate
  • Dilsopropyl sebacate
  • Acetyl Hexapeptide 3
  • Xantham Gum
  • Isopropyl Titanium Trisostearate
  • Ethylexylglycerin
  • French Green Clay

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.
