Frequently asked questions

Does Caring Cleansing Wipes contain fragrance allergens?

Yes — analysing the INCI list, AllerNote found 12 of the EU-labelled fragrance allergens: parfum, limonene, linalool, citronellol, alpha-isomethyl ionone, benzyl alcohol, geraniol, hexyl cinnamal, benzyl salicylate, linalyl acetate, citrus aurantium peel oil, terpineol. If you're fragrance-sensitive or patch-test positive to a fragrance mix, treat Caring Cleansing Wipes with caution and patch test before full use.

Is Caring Cleansing Wipes paraben-free?

No parabens were detected in Caring Cleansing Wipes'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 Caring Cleansing Wipes suitable for sensitive or allergy-prone skin?

It depends on your specific triggers. Caring Cleansing Wipes contains 9 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 Caring Cleansing Wipes against your own profile.
