Mineral Salts
Can worsen Dry Skin
Some ingredients have the potential to dry out skin, especially in higher concentrations or for those with already dry or sensitive skin. Not everyone will experience dryness from them. How your skin reacts can depend on the product, concentration, and your unique skin type.
May cause Irritation
These ingredients are considered potential irritants, meaning they can cause irritation - but not necessarily for everyone. Everyone’s skin is different, so what bothers one person’s skin may be completely fine for someone else.
Can worsen Rosacea
These ingredients are known to be potential triggers for rosacea, but not everyone with rosacea will react the same way. Because rosacea-prone skin can be especially reactive, it’s best to approach new products with caution. Please consult a dermatologist for personalized guidance.
Can worsen Eczema
These are common ingredients that may trigger eczema flare-ups, but everyone’s skin is different. If you have eczema or suspect you might, it’s important to check with a medical professional for the best care and product guidance.
