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

Sodium Laureth Sulfate

Skin irritation, eye irritation, potential for mild sensitization especially with prolonged or repeated exposure, contamination risk with 1,4-dioxane if not properly purified

Fragrance

Skin sensitization, allergic contact dermatitis, respiratory irritation, potential asthma exacerbation

PPG-9

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

Linalool

Skin sensitization, allergic contact dermatitis, mild skin irritation, potential respiratory sensitization

Red 33 (CI 17200)

Irritation potential, sensitization risk, regulatory restrictions in some regions

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.
