Frequently asked questions
Does Resist Anti-Aging Eye Cream contain fragrance allergens?
Yes — analysing the INCI list, AllerNote found 1 of the EU-labelled fragrance allergens: benzyl alcohol. If you're fragrance-sensitive or patch-test positive to a fragrance mix, treat Resist Anti-Aging Eye Cream with caution and patch test before full use.
Is Resist Anti-Aging Eye Cream paraben-free?
