SOME BY MI
Real AHA-BHA-PHA Calming Care Mask
€2.85
The three acids the name sells are each declared at 1 ppm (citric, salicylic and lactobionic), which is a labelling gesture rather than a peel. What the sheet actually delivers is glycerin, propanediol and licorice-root derivatives, with peppermint oil high enough in the list to be felt.
What stands out in the list
Worked out from the ingredients, not the packaging claims.
1 essential oil
Naturally derived, and a frequent trigger for reactive skin: Mentha Piperita (Peppermint) Oil.
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.
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.
