Is Vitamin C Foaming Face Wash paraben-free?

No parabens were detected in Vitamin C Foaming Face Wash'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.
