What this doesn't mean

Regulatory context

None namedNo ingredient here is named by a published rule we hold.

What this doesn't mean

That is a statement about the rules, not about safety.

Composition

None of the three we countCounts, 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

• Contains exfoliating acids

  This product contains an exfoliating acid. These work by loosening the bonds between surface skin cells, and are usually introduced gradually.

  • Lactic Acid
  Why we mention it

  Concentration and pH change the effect substantially, and neither is usually disclosed, so an absolute statement would be misleading.

• 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.

  • Rosmarinus Officinalis Leaf Extract
  • Melaleuca Alternifolia Leaf Oil
  Why we mention it

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

• Contains essential oils

  This product contains plant-derived essential oils, which carry their own naturally occurring fragrance components.

  • Rosmarinus Officinalis Leaf Extract
  • Melaleuca Alternifolia Leaf Oil
  Why we mention it

  Essential oils are often chosen as a "natural" alternative to fragrance, but they contain fragrance compounds themselves, so people avoiding fragrance usually want to know.
