Frequently asked questions
Does Ultra Doux Almond Milk Hydrating Shampoo contain fragrance allergens?
Yes — analysing the INCI list, AllerNote found 2 of the EU-labelled fragrance allergens: parfum, linalool. If you're fragrance-sensitive or patch-test positive to a fragrance mix, treat Ultra Doux Almond Milk Hydrating Shampoo with caution and patch test before full use.
Is Ultra Doux Almond Milk Hydrating Shampoo paraben-free?
