Flagged ingredients (6)

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

Salicylic Acid

exfoliant · anti-acne

Severity 4/10
Sensitive skin: Use with cautionDry skin: High cautionPregnancy: Use with cautionBabies & kids: Best avoidedEczema-prone: High caution
  • Irritation:Dryness and peeling at exfoliating concentrations (0.5–2%).

The pore-clearing BHA exfoliant. Not for young children (salicylate absorption), used cautiously in pregnancy at low leave-on concentrations, and drying for compromised barriers.

Severity 4/10Editorial
Sensitive skin: Use with cautionEczema-prone: High caution
  • Irritation:A strong 'sulfate-free' cleanser that can be as stripping as sulfates.

A common 'sulfate-free' marketing substitute that cleans — and can strip — just as aggressively as the sulfates it replaces.

Melaleuca Alternifolia Leaf Oil

antimicrobial · botanical

Severity 5/10Editorial
Sensitive skin: High cautionBabies & kids: Use with cautionEczema-prone: High caution
  • Allergy risk:Oxidized tea tree oil is a well-documented contact allergen.
  • Irritation:Irritating when used undiluted or at high concentrations.

A popular natural antibacterial for blemishes that becomes increasingly allergenic as it ages and oxidizes; never use it undiluted.

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.

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.

Ascorbic Acid

antioxidant · brightener

Severity 2/10Editorial
  • Irritation:Low-pH formulas can sting reactive skin.

Pure vitamin C — a proven antioxidant and brightener whose acidic formulas may tingle on sensitive skin; derivatives are gentler.

No concerns found (4)

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

Recognized ingredients (1)

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.

  • PEG-120 Methyl Glucose Dioleate· surfactant - emulsifying

Not enough data (4)

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.

  • DL Panthenol USP Powder
  • Linolemidopropyl
  • PG-Dimonium Chloride Phosphate
  • Trolamine

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.
