Frequently asked questions
Does Daily Facial Cleanser contain fragrance allergens?
Yes — analysing the INCI list, AllerNote found 1 of the EU-labelled fragrance allergens: parfum. If you're fragrance-sensitive or patch-test positive to a fragrance mix, treat Daily Facial Cleanser with caution and patch test before full use.
Is Daily Facial Cleanser paraben-free?

If none are on your personal allergen list it may suit you, but patch test first — add your allergens to AllerNote to check Daily Facial Cleanser against your own profile.
