Frequently asked questions
Does Watermelon Cooling Icy Gel Moisturizer 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 Watermelon Cooling Icy Gel Moisturizer with caution and patch test before full use.
Is Watermelon Cooling Icy Gel Moisturizer paraben-free?
