Why it’s rated Use Caution

A product’s rating follows its most concerning indexed ingredient. Each ingredient links to its science card and the research behind it. How ratings work

• Fragrance Allergens EU-listed fragrance allergens — sensitisers for some people.
  Use Caution
• Potassium Sorbate Mild Food Preservative / DNA Irritation at High Dose
  Use Caution
• Cosmetic Preservatives (Mild) Milder preservatives; limit rather than avoid.
  Use Caution
• Ethoxylated Emulsifiers (Polysorbates, PEGs) Ethoxylation can leave 1,4-dioxane traces.
  Use Caution
• Phenoxyethanol Synthetic Preservative / Mild Irritant in Concentration > 1%
  Use Caution
• Dimethicone & Silicones Occlusive; some cyclic silicones are restricted in the EU for environmental persistence.

  Use Caution
• Citric Acid (Manufactured / Mold-Derived) Fermentation Byproduct / Mold & Inflammatory Response
  Use Caution
• Synthetic Fragrance / Parfum Undisclosed scent blend. A practical allowance: on its own it rates Caution (limit use), not Avoid — products with other flagged ingredients are still rated by those.
  Use Caution

  Clean
