Frequently asked questions

Does Soft Daily UV Refreshingly Moisturizing Cream 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 Soft Daily UV Refreshingly Moisturizing Cream SPF 15 with caution and patch test before full use.

Is Soft Daily UV Refreshingly Moisturizing Cream SPF 15 paraben-free?
