Frequently asked questions

Does Cleansing Milk Almond Oil contain fragrance allergens?

Yes — analysing the INCI list, AllerNote found 5 of the EU-labelled fragrance allergens: linalool, alpha-isomethyl ionone, geraniol, limonene, citronellol.

It depends on your specific triggers. Cleansing Milk Almond Oil contains 9 flagged allergens and 1 irritant (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 Cleansing Milk Almond Oil against your own profile.
