What this doesn't mean

The whole printed list is still below, exactly as written.

Fragrance
Present · 1 named1 of the 26 fragrance substances EU labelling asks to be named is on this pack.
What this doesn't mean

That is a labelling rule rather than a warning. It matters most to somebody who already knows they react to one of them.

Regulatory context
10 named · 10 restricted or prohibited10 ingredients on this list are named in EU cosmetics law, and 10 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
6 preservatives · 3 UV filtersCounts, 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

  • Declared fragrance allergen

    This product declares one or more of the fragrance substances that EU labelling rules require to be named individually.

    Why we mention it

    Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 requires certain fragrance substances to be named on the label above a threshold. Their presence is a labelling fact, not a prediction that anybody will react.

  • 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 parabens

    This product contains a paraben preservative. Parabens are permitted in the EU within concentration limits set by the Cosmetics Regulation, and some individual parabens are restricted or prohibited.

    Why we mention it

    Parabens attract more concern than the regulatory position supports, and the honest answer is specific: some are permitted within limits, some are not. Saying "dangerous" would be wrong; saying nothing would be unhelpful.

  • Contains fragrance

    This product contains fragrance. Fragrance is one of the more common causes of contact irritation, which is why many people prefer to avoid it.

    Why we mention it

    Fragrance is the most frequently cited preference in cosmetics, and "parfum" on a label can cover many undisclosed components.

  • Contains UV filters

    This product contains UV filters. Which filters are permitted, and at what concentration, differs between markets.

    Why we mention it

    UV filters are among the most tightly regulated cosmetic ingredients, and the permitted set differs between the EU, the US and elsewhere.

  • Contains mineral oils

    This product contains a petroleum-derived oil or wax. Cosmetic grades are refined to a standard set for that use.

    Why we mention it

    A common preference, frequently confused with industrial-grade material. The distinction is worth stating plainly.
