Barcode 3337875784054Checked 12 September 2026
Findings
- Formula transparency
- Partly recorded9 entries are not in our reference yet.
What this doesn't mean
The whole printed list is still below, exactly as written — those entries simply carry no explanation beside them.
- Fragrance
- None foundNothing on this list is a scent or fragrance ingredient.
What this doesn't mean
Unscented is not scent-free — a base can still have a smell of its own.
- Regulatory context
- 2 named · 2 with limits2 ingredients on this list are named in EU cosmetics law, and 2 of them carry a condition.
What this doesn't mean
A condition is a cap on how much may be used, or which products it may be used in. We hold no concentrations, so we can't tell you where this product sits against one — the rules themselves are under Rules.
- Composition
- 1 preservativeCounts, not conclusions.
What this doesn't mean
A preservative keeps a water-based product from growing microbes in the pack, a UV filter absorbs or reflects ultraviolet light, and a colourant adds colour.
Worth knowing
- Subject to a regulatory restriction
One or more ingredients in this product are restricted in at least one market. The restriction is usually a concentration limit or a limit on the type of product.
Why we mention it
Points at a named instrument rather than implying a general hazard. The specific provision is shown with the ingredient.
- Contains exfoliating acids
This product contains an exfoliating acid. These work by loosening the bonds between surface skin cells, and are usually introduced gradually.
Why we mention it
Concentration and pH change the effect substantially, and neither is usually disclosed, so an absolute statement would be misleading.
How this formula is built
Grouped by what each ingredient is there to do. Open a band for the entries doing that job.
No band claims a share of the formula. 9 entries on the pack have no recorded purpose yet, and are still printed in full below.
