“—” 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 Neogen Korea official mall (Korean label, INCI names via MFDS dictionary), retrieved Oct 17, 2026. Formulas change — check the label on the package you buy.

Fragrance allergens (EU labelling)

This list includes 5 fragrance allergens that the EU requires to be named on the label when present above 0.001% in leave-on or 0.01% in rinse-off products: Pelargonium Graveolens Flower Oil, Linalool, Citronellol, Geraniol, Limonene.

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.
