Frequently asked questions

Does Pure Active Neem Face Wash contain fragrance allergens?

Yes — analysing the INCI list, AllerNote found 4 of the EU-labelled fragrance allergens: parfum, linalool, benzyl alcohol, benzyl salicylate. If you're fragrance-sensitive or patch-test positive to a fragrance mix, treat Pure Active Neem Face Wash with caution and patch test before full use.

Is Pure Active Neem Face Wash paraben-free?
