Ingredient lists help you understand what a cosmetic formula contains, but they should be read together with the product directions, warnings and intended use.
Look beyond one featured ingredient
The complete formula matters. Note moisturising agents, antioxidants, fragrances and known sensitivities rather than judging a product by a single highlighted ingredient.
Use products as directed
Patch testing can be helpful for leave-on cosmetics. For professional-use, injectable or prescription-adjacent products, consult a qualified healthcare professional before use. See our ordering FAQs for more information.
