Garnier

SkinActive Vitamin C Tissue Mask

Alphabetised from the fifth entry, so position stops telling you much below it - but the ingredient worth spotting is phenylethyl resorcinol at eighteen, a well-documented tyrosinase inhibitor and a rare find on a €1.85 sheet mask. Ascorbyl glucoside and niacinamide sit in the same alphabetised block, so all three are somewhere under 1%.

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.

  • 2 declared fragrance allergens

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

  • No drying alcohol

    No ethanol, alcohol denat. or isopropyl alcohol in the list. Fatty alcohols such as cetearyl alcohol are not drying and do not count.

  • 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 Niacinamide, ingredients with reasonable evidence for calming and supporting the skin barrier.
