Limits of interpretation

The INCI list shows which ingredients are present, not how much of each. Above 1%, ingredients are listed in descending order of weight; below 1% the order is free.

It is one of the fragrance allergens that must be named on the label in the EU above 0.001% in leave-on and 0.01% in rinse-off products; its presence does not mean the product will cause a reaction.
