Frequently asked questions
Does Men Energy Shower Gel contain fragrance allergens?
Yes — analysing the INCI list, AllerNote found 5 of the EU-labelled fragrance allergens: parfum, linalool, limonene, benzyl alcohol, citronellol. If you're fragrance-sensitive or patch-test positive to a fragrance mix, treat Men Energy Shower Gel with caution and patch test before full use.
Is Men Energy Shower Gel paraben-free?
