Mein Teebaumöl Anti-Unreinheiten Maske

A short, blunt clay mask: kaolin second, bentonite fourth, salicylic acid sixth and tea tree oil seventh, and almost nothing else. Sixteen ingredients with no perfume declared, which is unusual at this price - the smell is the tea tree oil itself. The denatured alcohol in third place is the thing to weigh if your skin is both oily and easily irritated.

What stands out in the list

Worked out from the ingredients, not the packaging claims.

  • 1 essential oil

    Naturally derived, and a frequent trigger for reactive skin: Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Oil.

  • Drying alcohol, high in the list

    Alcohol denat. appears at position 3, so it is a major part of the formula. Expect a fast, matte finish and possible tightness on dry or reactive skin.

  • Exfoliating acids

    Contains Salicylic Acid. Use sunscreen the following day; EU law caps these (Salicylic Acid: EU max 2% (most face products, incl. masks); 3% (rinse-off hair); 0.5% (body lotion, eye/lip make-up, roll-on deodorant); 0.5% when used as a preservative).

  • 2 concentration-capped ingredients

    EU law sets a maximum for Salicylic Acid, Sodium Hydroxide. Products on sale in the EU must comply.

  • 2 ingredients flagged for pregnancy

    Salicylic Acid, Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Oil are usually avoided or used with caution during pregnancy. This is what the ingredient entries say, not medical advice, so ask your midwife or doctor.

  • No fragrance or declared allergens

    Nothing in the list is Parfum/Fragrance or an EU-declared fragrance allergen.
