Frequently asked questions

Does Capital Soleil Moisturizing UV Cream SPF 30 contain fragrance allergens?

Yes — analysing the INCI list, AllerNote found 2 of the EU-labelled fragrance allergens: benzyl benzoate, benzyl alcohol. If you're fragrance-sensitive or patch-test positive to a fragrance mix, treat Capital Soleil Moisturizing UV Cream SPF 30 with caution and patch test before full use.

Is Capital Soleil Moisturizing UV Cream SPF 30 paraben-free?
