Yes, there are a few ingredients in this list that might be considered undesirable, especially for those sensitive to specific chemicals, those aiming for minimal exposure to potentially harmful additives, or those seeking natural ingredients. Here's an overview:
Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLES): A surfactant that can cause skin irritation, especially in high concentrations or for people with sensitive skin. It may also contain traces of 1,4-dioxane, a potential carcinogen, as a byproduct of the manufacturing process.
Fragrance/Parfum: The term "fragrance" can represent a mixture of undisclosed synthetic chemicals, including potential allergens, endocrine disruptors, or skin irritants. For transparency, natural or fragrance-free products are usually preferred by those avoiding synthetic additives.
Sodium Benzoate: A preservative that can potentially form benzene, a known carcinogen, when combined with ascorbic acid (vitamin C). While generally recognized as safe in small amounts, it may still be avoided by those aiming to reduce additive intake.
Tetrasodium EDTA: This is a chelating agent used to stabilize formulas but is also a penetration enhancer, which can increase skin absorption of other ingredients. It is also not easily biodegradable and can accumulate in the environment.
PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate: PEG compounds are often contaminated with impurities such as 1,4-dioxane, and they may disrupt the skin barrier.
Polyquaternium-7: A conditioning agent that can release formaldehyde, a known carcinogen, in certain conditions.
Green 3: A synthetic dye, also known as FD&C Green No. 3, which may cause skin reactions in sensitive individuals and is generally avoided by those seeking natural coloring agents.
If you aim to avoid these potential additives, looking for products with transparent and natural ingredients, without added fragrance, dyes, or synthetic preservatives, may be beneficial.
