Frequently asked questions

Does Midnight Recovery Omega Rich Botanical Night Cream contain fragrance allergens?

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

Is Midnight Recovery Omega Rich Botanical Night Cream paraben-free?

No parabens were detected in Midnight Recovery Omega Rich Botanical Night Cream'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. Midnight Recovery Omega Rich Botanical Night Cream contains 6 flagged allergens and 2 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 Midnight Recovery Omega Rich Botanical Night Cream against your own profile.
