Essential Oils
Oil
Oil is a hydrophobic (water-repelling) substance that can help regulate sebum production in skincare.
Explained
This is not an INCI ingredient. It is too vague to know which specific oils are used or their concentrations.
Each essential oil has a unique chemical profile, allergen content, and irritation potential. Without this detail, itβs difficult to assess fragrance allergens, sensitivity risks, or overall skin compatibility. We recommend reaching out to the brand if you have questions about this ingredient in your skincare.
Examples of INCI names for essential oils:
- Lavandula Angustifolia Oil / Lavender Oil
- Melaleuca Alternifolia Oil/ Tea Tree Oil
- Citrus Limon Peel Oil/ Lemon Peel Oil
