Frequently asked questions

Does Ambre Solaire Ideal Bronze Tan Enhancing Oil SPF 30 contain fragrance allergens?

Yes — analysing the INCI list, AllerNote found 4 of the EU-labelled fragrance allergens: parfum, hydroxycitronellal, benzyl alcohol, linalool. If you're fragrance-sensitive or patch-test positive to a fragrance mix, treat Ambre Solaire Ideal Bronze Tan Enhancing Oil SPF 30 with caution and patch test before full use.
