Frequently asked questions
Does Blue Gentian & Edelweiss Contouring Serum contain fragrance allergens?
Yes — analysing the INCI list, AllerNote found 9 of the EU-labelled fragrance allergens: parfum, limonene, linalool, citronellol, benzyl benzoate, geraniol, citral, farnesol, benzyl salicylate. If you're fragrance-sensitive or patch-test positive to a fragrance mix, treat Blue Gentian & Edelweiss Contouring Serum with caution and patch test before full use.
Is Blue Gentian & Edelweiss Contouring Serum paraben-free?
No parabens were detected in Blue Gentian & Edelweiss Contouring Serum's listed ingredients. Worth keeping in perspective: parabens are among the least common cosmetic allergens, so "paraben-free" matters far less for reactive skin than avoiding fragrance or the preservative MI/MCI.
Is Blue Gentian & Edelweiss Contouring Serum suitable for sensitive or allergy-prone skin?
It depends on your specific triggers. Blue Gentian & Edelweiss Contouring Serum contains 9 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 Blue Gentian & Edelweiss Contouring Serum against your own profile.
