What's inside

Sulfuric Acid

Severe skin corrosion, severe eye damage, respiratory irritation inhalation hazard, chemical burns

Sodium Hydroxide

Highly corrosive, can cause severe irritation and burns upon skin or eye contact, harmful if ingested in concentrated form

Linoleic Acid

High omega-6, oxidation instability, excessive intake associated with weight gain

Hydrogenated Vegetable Glycerides

Potential trans fat formation, increased risk of cardiovascular disease with regular intake, raises LDL cholesterol, ultra-processed

Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonic Acid

Skin irritation, eye irritation, potential respiratory irritation from aerosols, moderate environmental toxicity to aquatic life

Fragrance

Skin sensitization, allergic contact dermatitis, respiratory irritation, potential allergenicity, IFRA restrictions

Hexyl Cinnamal

Skin sensitization, allergic contact dermatitis, eye irritation, potential respiratory sensitization

Palmitic Acid

High intake associated with elevated LDL cholesterol, potential cardiovascular risk with excessive consumption

Sodium Lauryl Sulfate

Skin irritation, eye irritation, potential sensitization with prolonged exposure

C9-11 Pareth-5

Mild skin irritation, eye irritation potential at higher concentrations

Steareth-20

Skin irritation, potential contamination with 1,4-dioxane

Cellulose gum

Minor digestive discomfort in some individuals, potential mild sensitizer in topical use

Xanthan Gum

Minor gastrointestinal intolerance in high amounts, possible allergen for sensitive individuals

Sorbic Acid

Irritation potential at high concentrations, possible sensitization in rare cases

Water

Safe solvent, non-toxic, non-irritating, environmentally benign

Arachidic Acid

Arachidic acid is a saturated fatty acid also known as eicosanoic acid. It is found naturally in peanut oil, fish oil, and corn oil. In the human body, it can function as an energy source and is also used in the production of complex lipids. Arachidic acid is not considered an essential fatty acid, as the body can synthesize it.
