Frequently asked questions

Does Aloe Soothing Sun Cream SPF 50 PA+++ contain fragrance allergens?

Yes — analysing the INCI list, AllerNote found 9 of the EU-labelled fragrance allergens: parfum, hexyl cinnamal, linalool, benzyl benzoate, citral, limonene, benzyl salicylate, geraniol, citronellol. If you're fragrance-sensitive or patch-test positive to a fragrance mix, treat Aloe Soothing Sun Cream SPF 50 PA+++ with caution and patch test before full use.

Is Aloe Soothing Sun Cream SPF 50 PA+++ paraben-free?

No parabens were detected in Aloe Soothing Sun Cream SPF 50 PA+++'s listed ingredients. Worth keeping in perspective: parabens are among the least common cosmetic allergens, so "paraben-free" matters far less for reactive skin than avoiding fragrance or the preservative MI/MCI.

It depends on your specific triggers. Aloe Soothing Sun Cream SPF 50 PA+++ contains 13 flagged allergens and 2 irritants (listed in the analysis above). If none are on your personal allergen list it may suit you, but patch test first — add your allergens to AllerNote to check Aloe Soothing Sun Cream SPF 50 PA+++ against your own profile.
