Balea

Gesichtsmaske Peel-Off Lemon Lover

The same peel-off machinery as Balea's other film masks - polyvinyl alcohol third, denatured alcohol second to flash it dry - with pineapple and lemon fruit extracts in fifth and sixth place doing the scent work the name promises. The shimmer is mica, silica and tin oxide, and the copper CI 77288 at the tail is what makes it read warm rather than pearl-white.

What stands out in the list

Worked out from the ingredients, not the packaging claims.

  • Contains fragrance

    Listed as Parfum/Fragrance, which can stand for dozens of undisclosed aroma chemicals. Fragrance is one of the most common causes of cosmetic contact allergy.

  • 1 declared fragrance allergen

    EU law requires these to be named on the pack: Linalool.

  • Drying alcohol, high in the list

    Alcohol Denat. appears at position 2, so it is a major part of the formula. Expect a fast, matte finish and possible tightness on dry or reactive skin.

  • 1 concentration-capped ingredient

    EU law sets a maximum for Titanium Dioxide. Products on sale in the EU must comply.

  • Nothing flagged for pregnancy

    No ingredient on this list is one our encyclopaedia marks as avoided or used with caution in pregnancy. That is not the same as a clearance, so check with your midwife or doctor.

  • Barrier-supporting actives

    Contains Panthenol, ingredients with reasonable evidence for calming and supporting the skin barrier.
