Yes — analysing the INCI list, AllerNote found 6 of the EU-labelled fragrance allergens: parfum, linalool, citronellol, geraniol, citral, benzyl alcohol. If you're fragrance-sensitive or patch-test positive to a fragrance mix, treat Super Multi-Corrective Cream Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 30 with caution and patch test before full use.

Is Super Multi-Corrective Cream Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 30 paraben-free?

No parabens were detected in Super Multi-Corrective Cream Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 30's listed ingredients.
