Frequently asked questions
Is Redness Relief Cleansing Gel fragrance-free?
No added fragrance or EU-labelled fragrance allergens were detected in Redness Relief Cleansing Gel's listed ingredients. "Not detected" isn't an absolute guarantee, but it's a good sign for fragrance-sensitive skin — confirm against the current pack and your own triggers.
Does Redness Relief Cleansing Gel contain parabens?
Yes, Redness Relief Cleansing Gel's INCI list includes one or more parabens. For most people that's low-risk — parabens have a notably low contact-allergy rate — but if you've patch-tested positive to parabens specifically, choose a paraben-free alternative.
Is Redness Relief Cleansing Gel suitable for sensitive or allergy-prone skin?
It depends on your specific triggers. Redness Relief Cleansing Gel contains 6 flagged allergens and 1 irritant (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 Redness Relief Cleansing Gel against your own profile.
