Frequently asked questions

Does Nourishing Day Cream Dry & Sensitive Skin SPF 15 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 Nourishing Day Cream Dry & Sensitive Skin SPF 15 with caution and patch test before full use.

Is Nourishing Day Cream Dry & Sensitive Skin SPF 15 paraben-free?

It depends on your specific triggers. Nourishing Day Cream Dry & Sensitive Skin SPF 15 contains 3 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 Nourishing Day Cream Dry & Sensitive Skin SPF 15 against your own profile.
