Frequently asked questions

Does Pure Active Tea Tree + Salicylic Acid Sheet Mask contain fragrance allergens?

Yes — analysing the INCI list, AllerNote found 3 of the EU-labelled fragrance allergens: parfum, limonene, benzyl salicylate. If you're fragrance-sensitive or patch-test positive to a fragrance mix, treat Pure Active Tea Tree + Salicylic Acid Sheet Mask with caution and patch test before full use.

Is Pure Active Tea Tree + Salicylic Acid Sheet Mask paraben-free?

No parabens were detected in Pure Active Tea Tree + Salicylic Acid Sheet Mask'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. Pure Active Tea Tree + Salicylic Acid Sheet Mask contains 4 flagged allergens and 1 irritant (listed in the analysis above).
