Frequently asked questions

Does Pink Grapefruit Oil-Free Acne Moisturize contain fragrance allergens?

Yes — analysing the INCI list, AllerNote found 1 of the EU-labelled fragrance allergens: parfum. If you're fragrance-sensitive or patch-test positive to a fragrance mix, treat Pink Grapefruit Oil-Free Acne Moisturize with caution and patch test before full use.

Is Pink Grapefruit Oil-Free Acne Moisturize paraben-free?
