Schaebens
Aloe Vera Maske
€0.55 · €0.28/use
The aloe the name sells is a juice powder in tenth place, behind the emulsifier system; panthenol is eighth and shea butter ninth. Sea buckthorn and rosemary extracts follow. Four separate acids near the end - benzoic, citric, dehydroacetic, sorbic - are doing preservation and pH work, not exfoliation.
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.
4 declared fragrance allergens
EU law requires these to be named on the pack: Citrus Medica Limonum (Lemon) Peel Oil, Limonene, Linalool, Linalyl Acetate.
2 essential oils
Naturally derived, and a frequent trigger for reactive skin: Citrus Aurantium Peel Oil, Citrus Medica Limonum (Lemon) Peel Oil.
Phototoxic citrus oils
Citrus Medica Limonum (Lemon) Peel Oil can carry furocoumarins, which increase sun sensitivity unless the oil is furocoumarin-free.
Contains drying alcohol
Alcohol appears at position 17, well down the list, so the amount is likely small.
Exfoliating acids
Contains Lactic Acid. Use sunscreen the following day; EU law caps these.
2 concentration-capped ingredients
EU law sets a maximum for Sodium Hydroxide, Citrus Medica Limonum (Lemon) Peel Oil. 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.
