Understanding Common Allergens in Cosmetics and How Lefu Avoids Them

In today's beauty industry, the concern for product safety and skin compatibility has never been higher. This is especially true for individuals with sensitive skin, who must navigate a myriad of potential allergens in cosmetic products. At Guangdong Lefu Cosmeceutical Biotechnology Co., Ltd., we are dedicated to creating skincare solutions that are safe and effective for everyone, including those with the most delicate skin.

Common Allergens in Cosmetics

According to the FDA's Allergens in Cosmetics guidelines, the most common allergens found in cosmetic products include rubber latex, fragrances, preservatives, dyes, and metals. Each of these categories contains substances that can trigger allergic reactions in sensitive individuals.

• Rubber Latex: Commonly used in applicators and containers, rubber latex can cause severe allergic reactions.
• Fragrances: A major allergen category, with the EU listing 25 specific fragrance components such as Amyl Cinnamal and Linalool as known allergens.
• Preservatives: Essential for product longevity but often problematic, with compounds like Methylisothiazolinone (MIT) and formaldehyde releasers being the most notorious.
• Dyes: Used for product aesthetics, dyes like p-Phenylenediamine and coal-tar are known to cause skin irritation.
• Metals: Metals such as nickel and gold, often found in color cosmetics, can be problematic.
