Advisory

  • Contains fragrance: Parfum
  • Fragrance allergens: Alpha-isomethyl Ionone, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis Peel Oil, Hexyl Cinnamal, Hydroxycitronellal, Linalool

Fragrance does not change the rating; it matters if your skin reacts to fragrance. EU-declared fragrance allergens: relevant only if you are sensitised to them.

Why it's rated this way

3 ingredients on this label are flagged. A cosmetic's rating is set by its most serious finding — here, Hydroxyisohexyl 3-Cyclohexene Carboxaldehyde.

  1. Hydroxyisohexyl 3-Cyclohexene CarboxaldehydeCritical concernEU CosIng Annex II
    What it is
    Its recorded role: perfuming and fragrance. About Hydroxyisohexyl 3-Cyclohexene Carboxaldehyde
    Why it's flagged

    How sure we are
    High confidence. The label names this substance exactly.
  2. Sodium HydroxideMinor concernAlkali (lye). It is used up in the product: as a pH adjuster it neutralises an acid in the formula, and in soap it turns the oils into soap. The EU caps the alkalinity it may leave (pH 11 for pH-adjuster use); the higher limits, with warnings, are only for hair straighteners, cuticle removers and depilatories.

  3. Behentrimonium ChlorideMinor concernHair-conditioning quaternary ammonium. It irritates skin and eyes at high strength, so the EU caps it (other than as a preservative) at 5 % in rinse-off hair products and 3 % in leave-on products — the levels the SCCS found safe.
