Frequently asked questions
Does Fructis Puliti E Brillanti Shampoo Illuminante contain fragrance allergens?
Yes — analysing the INCI list, AllerNote found 5 of the EU-labelled fragrance allergens: parfum, linalool, amyl cinnamal, hexyl cinnamal, benzyl alcohol. If you're fragrance-sensitive or patch-test positive to a fragrance mix, treat Fructis Puliti E Brillanti Shampoo Illuminante with caution and patch test before full use.
Is Fructis Puliti E Brillanti Shampoo Illuminante paraben-free?
No parabens were detected in Fructis Puliti E Brillanti Shampoo Illuminante'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.

It depends on your specific triggers. Fructis Puliti E Brillanti Shampoo Illuminante contains 6 flagged allergens and 2 irritants (listed in the analysis above).
