Some concern

Why this score

Concern45 / 55
  • Fragrance: watch if sensitive
  • Citronellol: watch if sensitive
  • Geraniol: watch if sensitive

How much genuine, cited concern the ingredients carry, weighted by how much of each is likely present and whether the product stays on or rinses off.

Transparency12 / 20
  • Uses an undisclosed "fragrance/parfum" blend, so its scent allergens are hidden.

Whether the full ingredient list, and any fragrance, are actually disclosed.

Formulation restraint14 / 25
  • 8 known irritant or fragrance-allergen ingredients: Alcohol Denat., Lactic Acid, Fragrance, Limonene, Linalool, Citronellol, Geraniol, Citral.

Needless irritant or allergen load for the product type. A clean, purposeful formula scores well without any "free-from" theater.

What’s inside

WaterGenerally safe

The base most products are built on. It carries the other ingredients and has no safety concern.

Full ingredient details →
Sunflower OilGenerally safe

A linoleic-acid-rich plant oil used as an emollient and, in some small pediatric studies, associated with support of the skin barrier when applied to infant skin. It is well tolerated with a low reported rate of contact reactions.

Full ingredient details →
Coco-GlucosideGenerally safe

A mild non-ionic cleansing agent made from coconut fatty alcohols and plant sugars (glucose). It is widely used in sulfate-free shampoos and gentle cleansers and is one of the least irritating surfactants in common use.

Full ingredient details →
Alcohol Denat.Watch if sensitive

A fast-evaporating solvent used to carry actives and give toners a light, "clean" feel; at the concentrations used in classic astringents it can be genuinely drying or irritating with repeated use, especially on dry or compromised skin, though it is not inherently toxic and is a normal, well-studied cosmetic ingredient.

Full ingredient details →
GlycerinGenerally safe

A humectant that draws water into the skin. One of the best-studied, best-tolerated ingredients in personal care.

Full ingredient details →
CarrageenanWatch if sensitive

A polysaccharide extracted from red seaweed used to thicken and stabilize formulas. It is well tolerated in topical cosmetics; concerns from food ingestion studies are not directly applicable to cosmetic use. People with seaweed sensitivities should patch test.

Full ingredient details →
Lactic AcidWatch if sensitive

A larger, gentler alpha hydroxy acid than glycolic acid, used to exfoliate and to draw in moisture. It can still cause stinging or increased sun sensitivity at higher concentrations, so daytime SPF use is sensible, but it is generally better tolerated than glycolic acid.

Full ingredient details →
Xanthan GumGenerally safe

Xanthan gum is a microbial-fermentation-derived polysaccharide used to thicken and stabilize textures, similarly common in food. Cosmetic panel review of this and related microbial gums found them safe as used, with no meaningful irritation signal at typical concentrations.

Full ingredient details →
FragranceWatch if sensitive

An undisclosed scent blend that can contain dozens of components. The single most common cause of cosmetic contact allergy, and the blend is not itemized, so you cannot see what is in it.

Full ingredient details →
LimoneneWatch if sensitive

A citrus-scented fragrance component. Fine for most, but it oxidizes over time into a known contact allergen, so it must be labelled in the EU.

Full ingredient details →
LinaloolWatch if sensitive

A floral fragrance component and one of the EU-labelled fragrance allergens. Usually fine, worth watching if you react to scented products.

Full ingredient details →
CitronellolWatch if sensitive

A rose-scented fragrance ingredient found naturally in geranium and rose oil. It is one of the 26 fragrance allergens the EU requires to be labeled by name because a minority of people develop skin sensitization to it, though most users tolerate it without issue.

Full ingredient details →
GeraniolWatch if sensitive

A floral, rose-like fragrance compound found in many essential oils. It is one of the 26 EU-designated fragrance allergens, meaning a documented minority of people can develop contact sensitization, so brands must disclose it above set thresholds.

Full ingredient details →
CitralWatch if sensitive

A natural fragrance component found in citrus oils and lemongrass, giving a lemony scent. It is a named EU fragrance allergen that can oxidize into potent contact allergens over time; people with known fragrance sensitivities may react.

Full ingredient details →

Note: this product hides its scent as an undisclosed “fragrance/parfum” blend, so its specific allergens are not on the label.
