Balea

Reinigung, Peeling & Maske hautrein 3in1

Three products in one tube, and the list is short enough to see how: kaolin second with bentonite tenth for the mask, pumice ninth for the scrub, and sodium cetearyl sulfate as the only real surfactant for the wash. Salicylic acid and zinc PCA sit below the line. Alcohol denat. is twelfth. No Parfum, which is rare in this format.

What stands out in the list

Worked out from the ingredients, not the packaging claims.

  • Contains drying alcohol

    Alcohol Denat. appears at position 12, well down the list, so the amount is likely small.

  • 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).

  • 1 concentration-capped ingredient

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

  • 1 ingredient flagged for pregnancy

    Salicylic Acid is 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.
