Frequently asked questions

Does Midnight Recovery Concentrate contain fragrance allergens?

Yes — analysing the INCI list, AllerNote found 6 of the EU-labelled fragrance allergens: linalool, citronellol, geraniol, limonene, citral, pelargonium graveolens flower oil. If you're fragrance-sensitive or patch-test positive to a fragrance mix, treat Midnight Recovery Concentrate with caution and patch test before full use.

Is Midnight Recovery Concentrate paraben-free?

No parabens were detected in Midnight Recovery Concentrate'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 Midnight Recovery Concentrate suitable for sensitive or allergy-prone skin?

It depends on your specific triggers. Midnight Recovery Concentrate contains 7 flagged allergens and 1 irritant (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 Midnight Recovery Concentrate against your own profile.
