Free-from cosmetics

Lists of products whose ingredient list has no fragrance, parabens, silicones, SLS/SLES and more – checked against the INCI list of every product in our database.

The lists are generated automatically from the ingredient lists in our database. Formulas change – always check the label on the pack. “Free from” does not mean better or safer.

The list says nothing about how the remaining products work or how well they are tolerated.
