Schwarzkopf Extra Care 4-in-1 Repair Hair Mask 400mL
Greenveil's read: looks good. Cosmetic safety minor.
- Minor
Advisory
- Contains fragrance: Parfum
- Fragrance allergens: Tetramethyl Acetyloctahydronaphthalenes, Limonene, Geranyl Acetate, Benzyl Alcohol
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
1 ingredient on this label is flagged. A cosmetic's rating is set by its most serious finding — here, Behentrimonium Chloride.
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.
