Apoteket's own label in figures
The 10 Apoteket products in INCIMondo are own-label items, mainly sunscreens plus an aloe vera gel in body care. PHENOXYETHANOL tops the ingredient ranking after water, followed by SODIUM HYDROXIDE, TOCOPHEROL, VP/EICOSENE COPOLYMER and XANTHAN GUM.
None of the 10 formulas contains fragrance ingredients, parabens or denatured alcohol (ALCOHOL DENAT.). Silicones are the one tracked group present, in 6 of them.
Reading Apoteket sunscreens
UV filters appear in the ingredient list under their INCI names, such as BUTYL METHOXYDIBENZOYLMETHANE, while the SPF number and, in the EU, often a UVA logo on the front show the protection level.
