“—” means no specific record for that ingredient in that jurisdiction's lists — it is not an approval. Restricted ingredients are allowed within limits (concentration, product type, label warnings); a product listing one is not necessarily over the limit. How we check.

Ingredient list from Mediheal official store, retrieved Oct 17, 2026. Formulas change — check the label on the package you buy.

Fragrance allergens (EU labelling)

None of the fragrance allergens the EU requires to be labelled appear in this ingredient list, but it lists “Fragrance/Parfum”, which can contain them below the labelling threshold.

Source: EU Cosmetics Regulation Annex III as amended by Regulation (EU) 2023/1545 — the list grew from 26 to over 80 entries; it applies to new products from 31 July 2026 and to all products from 31 July 2028. Shown for information; it is not a sign that a product is unsafe.
