Gesichtsmaske peel off Aktivkohle
€1.25 · €0.63/use
Eight ingredients, and it is the clearest look you will get at how a peel-off mask actually works: water, denatured alcohol, polyvinyl alcohol, propylene glycol - that is the film and its solvent - then allantoin, charcoal, a mild glucoside surfactant and fragrance. The charcoal the pack sells is sixth of eight. Nothing here is hiding.
Aimed at
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.
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.
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.
Short list - 8 ingredients
Fewer ingredients means fewer things to react to, and makes it easier to work out what caused a reaction if you do.
