Coverage & match quality
1 rating · 1 of 4 axes
- Some ratings rest on an automatic match that has not been human-reviewed.
- Fewer raters reach smaller-brand products, so a missing rating is not a clean bill of health, only a gap.

Data availability
Not enough to score5 of 6 characterized
Our sources have reference data on 5 of 6 listed ingredients; 1 is uncharacterized in our data — a gap, not a clean bill. That is still too few ingredients to score from, and a list this short is more often part of a label than a whole one, so we do not publish a safety score for this product.

These describe what an ingredient is, not whether it is a problem. The stance marks above are the ratings; these are not.
commonly dryingHamamelis Virginiana Extract, Alcohol
- Hamamelis Virginiana Extract: A tannin-rich astringent; the distillate sold under this name usually carries added alcohol, which is where the dry finish comes from. United States Pharmacopeia monograph "Witch Hazel", USP-NF version 02_01, DOI 10.31003/USPNF_M89070_02_01. The public DOI landing page carries a 2018 copyright and shows the definition, "Witch Hazel is a clear, colorless distillate prepared from recently cut and partially dried dormant twigs of Hamamelis virginiana L."; the specification, a distillate to which "150 mL of alcohol" is added per 850 mL at 14,0% to 15,0% ethanol, sits behind the USP subscription paywall. The monograph governs the pharmacopoeial article, not every product that prints this INCI name.
- Alcohol: A fast-evaporating solvent that leaves a dry finish. International Chemical Safety Card ICSC 0044, Ethanol (anhydrous), prepared by an international group of experts for the ILO and WHO: "The substance defats the skin, which may cause dryness or cracking." Bommannan et al., as reported by Lachenmeier DW, "Safety evaluation of topical applications of ethanol on the skin and inside the oral cavity", J Occup Med Toxicol 2008;3:26, DOI 10.1186/1745-6673-3-26, open access, reference 82: "Bommannan et al. found in vivo in humans that ethanol enters the skin and removes measurable quantities of the lipid barrier material from the stratum corneum." Both describe stronger exposures than a cosmetic formula.
common irritantPropylene Glycol
- Propylene Glycol: A solvent that shows up in patch-test clinics, more often as irritation than as allergy. American Contact Dermatitis Society, Allergen of the Year 2018 (Jacob SE, Scheman A, McGowan MA, Dermatitis 2018;29(1):3-5).
