What's inside

Fragrance

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

Polysorbate 20

Mild skin irritation possible in sensitive individuals, rare sensitization

Folic acid

Excessive intake may mask vitamin B12 deficiency, potential concern for unmetabolized folic acid accumulation

Methylpropanediol

Possible gastrointestinal discomfort, limited safety data for dietary exposure, may disrupt gut microbiota in animal studies, synthetic origin

Propanediol (PDO)

Possible mild skin irritation in sensitive individuals, potential allergen for some people

Ethylhexyl Palmitate (2‑Ethylhexyl Palmitate; Octyl Palmitate)

Not intended or approved for food use, ultra-processed synthetic ester, no nutritional value, potential gastrointestinal upset if ingested, possible residue/impurity concerns if present in food

Polyacrylate-13

Possible skin irritation, environmental concerns, synthetic processing

Calcium Disodium EDTA

Possible mild irritation in high concentrations, potential for bioaccumulation with excessive exposure, ingestion toxicity at large doses

Cetearyl Olivate

Cetearyl olivate is an emulsifying agent derived from the esterification of cetearyl alcohol (a mixture of cetyl and stearyl alcohols) with the fatty acids of olive oil. It is commonly used in cosmetics, personal care, and some processed food products to stabilize oil-in-water emulsions. While primarily used for topical applications, its food-grade variant is generally regarded as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used in regulated amounts.
