Frequently asked questions

Does Ultimate Blends Hydrating Restorative Shampoo contain fragrance allergens?

Yes — analysing the INCI list, AllerNote found 5 of the EU-labelled fragrance allergens: parfum, linalool, hexyl cinnamal, linalyl acetate, tetramethyl acetyloctahydronaphthalenes. If you're fragrance-sensitive or patch-test positive to a fragrance mix, treat Ultimate Blends Hydrating Restorative Shampoo with caution and patch test before full use.

Is Ultimate Blends Hydrating Restorative Shampoo paraben-free?

No parabens were detected in Ultimate Blends Hydrating Restorative Shampoo'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.

Is Ultimate Blends Hydrating Restorative Shampoo suitable for sensitive or allergy-prone skin?

It depends on your specific triggers. Ultimate Blends Hydrating Restorative Shampoo contains 5 flagged allergens and 3 irritants (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 Ultimate Blends Hydrating Restorative Shampoo against your own profile.
