Frequently asked questions

Is Brightening Micellar Water fragrance-free?

No added fragrance or EU-labelled fragrance allergens were detected in Brightening Micellar Water's listed ingredients. "Not detected" isn't an absolute guarantee, but it's a good sign for fragrance-sensitive skin — confirm against the current pack and your own triggers.

Is Brightening Micellar Water paraben-free?

No parabens were detected in Brightening Micellar Water'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.
