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: Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone, Citronellol, Coumarin, Geraniol, Linalool
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.
Contains a formaldehyde-releasing preservative
This product contains a preservative that works by slowly releasing formaldehyde. EU rules require products above a threshold to carry a specific label warning.
From: DMDM Hydantoin
Why are we telling you this?
This group is genuinely subject to a labelling obligation, so it is marked regulatory. The ingredient is not formaldehyde itself, and the flag says so.
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: DMDM Hydantoin, Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone, Citronellol, Coumarin, Geraniol, Linalool
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 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, Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone, Citronellol, Coumarin, Geraniol, Linalool
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 Laureth 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.
