What's inside

Sodium Lauroyl Isethionate

Not intended for ingestion, possible mucosal or gastrointestinal irritation if ingested, synthetic and industrial, potential allergen when used topically

Fragrance (Parfum)

Sensitization and allergic contact dermatitis, respiratory irritation, lack of transparency in composition

Palmitic Acid

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

Undecylenoyl Glycine

Not approved for food use, unknown effects with ingestion, potential for allergic reactions, lack of safety data for oral consumption

PPG-9

Not intended for ingestion, potential for skin irritation, possible endocrine disruption, lack of food safety data

Coumarin

Skin sensitization, allergic reactions, phototoxicity concerns

Linalool

Skin sensitization, allergic contact dermatitis, mild skin irritation at higher concentrations, potential respiratory sensitization

Glycol Stearate

Ultra-processed, potential for digestive discomfort at high intake, lack of nutritional value

Caramel

Potential presence of 4-methylimidazole and other heat-induced contaminants at low levels, minor allergy risk

Hydroxystearic Acid

A hydroxy-substituted C18 saturated fatty acid (most commonly 12-hydroxystearic acid), typically produced from castor/oleic acid derivatives. It is widely used as a rheology modifier, gellant, and emulsifying aid in cosmetics and industrial formulations; it is not commonly used as a direct food ingredient, though related hydroxy fatty acid derivatives (e.g., from castor oil) are present in some approved additives. Available toxicology and cosmetic safety assessments indicate low acute toxicity and low sensitization potential. If ingested, hydroxy fatty acids are expected to be metabolized via standard fatty-acid β-oxidation pathways.
