Fragrance allergens (linalool, geraniol, coumarin) may be present if fragrance is listed.
Colorants are aesthetic only — skip if you react to synthetic dyes.
Strong surfactants and fragrance can bother very sensitive scalps.
Patch test before full use if you have fragrance allergies or reactive skin.
Best suited for users seeking a clear, balanced cleanse. Effectively targets buildup while maintaining a light feel. Be mindful of surfactant strength and fragrance if you are sensitive.
