Worth knowing

Declared fragrance allergen
This product declares one or more of the fragrance substances that EU labelling rules require to be named individually.
From: Eugenol
Why are we telling you this?
Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 requires certain fragrance substances to be named on the label above a threshold. Their presence is a labelling fact, not a prediction that anybody will react.
Subject to a regulatory restriction
One or more ingredients in this product are restricted in at least one market. The restriction is usually a concentration limit or a limit on the type of product.
From: Sodium Benzoate, Methylparaben, Propylparaben, Eugenol
Why are we telling you this?
Points at a named instrument rather than implying a general hazard. The specific provision is shown with the ingredient.
Contains parabens
This product contains a paraben preservative. Parabens are permitted in the EU within concentration limits set by the Cosmetics Regulation, and some individual parabens are restricted or prohibited.
From: Methylparaben, Propylparaben
Why are we telling you this?
Parabens attract more concern than the regulatory position supports, and the honest answer is specific: some are permitted within limits, some are not. Saying "dangerous" would be wrong; saying nothing would be unhelpful.
Contains fragrance
This product contains fragrance. Fragrance is one of the more common causes of contact irritation, which is why many people prefer to avoid it.
From: Parfum, Eugenol
Why are we telling you this?
Fragrance is the most frequently cited preference in cosmetics, and "parfum" on a label can cover many undisclosed components.
Contains sulphate surfactants
This product contains a sulphate surfactant. These clean effectively and lather well; some people find them stripping on hair or skin.
From: Sodium Lauryl Sulfate
Why are we telling you this?
A widespread preference, particularly in haircare. Presented as a preference rather than a safety matter, because that is what it is.
