Frequently asked questions

Does Photoaging Control Face Sun Fluid SPF 50+ contain fragrance allergens?

Yes — analysing the INCI list, AllerNote found 1 of the EU-labelled fragrance allergens: benzyl alcohol. If you're fragrance-sensitive or patch-test positive to a fragrance mix, treat Photoaging Control Face Sun Fluid SPF 50+ with caution and patch test before full use.

Is Photoaging Control Face Sun Fluid SPF 50+ paraben-free?
