Frequently asked questions
Does Super Multi-Corrective Cream contain fragrance allergens?
Yes — analysing the INCI list, AllerNote found 4 of the EU-labelled fragrance allergens: limonene, linalool, pelargonium graveolens flower oil, rosa damascena flower oil. If you're fragrance-sensitive or patch-test positive to a fragrance mix, treat Super Multi-Corrective Cream with caution and patch test before full use.
Is Super Multi-Corrective Cream paraben-free?
No parabens were detected in Super Multi-Corrective 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.
Is Super Multi-Corrective Cream suitable for sensitive or allergy-prone skin?
It depends on your specific triggers. Super Multi-Corrective Cream contains 6 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 Super Multi-Corrective Cream against your own profile.
