What's inside

Hydrogenated Styrene/Butadiene Copolymer

Not intended for ingestion, potential toxicity if consumed, synthetic polymer exposure risks, may contain residual monomers or catalysts

Glycine soja (Soybean) Oil

High omega-6 fatty acid content, oxidative instability, potential endocrine effects due to isoflavones in unrefined forms, possible hexane solvent residues in refined oil

Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil

High omega-6 content, oxidative instability, potential for rancidity, mild skin sensitization in rare cases

Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil

Potential skin irritation or sensitization from particulate abrasiveness, possible residual trans fats if ingested, processing involves hydrogenation that may produce minor contaminants

Linoleic Acid

High omega-6 intake can contribute to oxidative instability and imbalance with omega-3 fatty acids, potentially influencing pro-inflammatory pathways; excessive consumption associated with weight gain

Sucralose

Possible gut microbiota alterations, potential digestive discomfort at high doses, heat instability leading to breakdown products

Aroma

Potential irritant or sensitizer depending on compounds, lack of transparency, possible presence of solvents or trace contaminants

Butylene/Ethylene/Styrene Copolymer

Irritation and sensitization risk on skin contact, potential contamination with residual monomers, chemical inertness limits biodegradability, regulatory restrictions on residual styrene levels

Hydrogenated Polydecene

Not intended for ingestion, ultra-processed synthetic hydrocarbon, potential aspiration hazard if swallowed, possible tissue accumulation concerns extrapolated from mineral oil hydrocarbons, possible gastrointestinal discomfort

Parfum

Skin sensitization, allergic contact dermatitis, respiratory irritation, potential for phototoxicity

Polysorbate 80

Potential irritant and sensitizer, contamination risk with carcinogenic byproducts (1,4-dioxane), possible hypersensitivity reactions

Sucrose Acetate/Stearate

Ultra-processed additive, potential digestive upset in sensitive individuals, no nutritional value

Cocoglycerides

Ultra-processed, potential for gut microbiota disruption if consumed in excess, source of additional processed fats

Ethylene/Propylene/Styrene Copolymer (SEPS)

Synthetic ultra-processed polymer, potential trace migration of residual styrene/oligomers, styrene classified as probably carcinogenic to humans (IARC Group 2A), possible microplastic shedding/exposure (evidence in food is limited), no nutritional value

Hydrolyzed Corn Starch

High glycemic index, potential for blood sugar spikes if consumed in large amounts, may contribute to calorie-dense ultra-processed foods

Microcrystalline Wax

Petroleum-derived, may cause digestive discomfort in large quantities, ultra-processed, no nutritional value

Polyhydroxystearic Acid

Potential for skin irritation, possible gut irritation if ingested, ultra-processed, limited long-term oral safety data

Silica Silylate

Limited long-term safety data, ultra-processed additive, potential for inhalation toxicity in powder form

Synthetic Wax

Ultra-processed, potential intestinal irritation, possible accumulation in the body, no nutritional value

Acacia Decurrens Flower Wax
