Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun : Rice + Probiotics SPF 50+ PA++++

Modern UVA filter (often called Uvinul A+ or DHHB). Regulatory assessments have repeatedly evaluated this filter as safe in cosmetic products at concentrations up to 10%. The most recent SCCS advice focuses on controlling a manufacturing impurity (DnHexP) rather than on new toxicity of DHHB itself. Human biomonitoring data indicate low systemic exposure from normal sunscreen use, and current reviews do not identify specific reproductive or developmental toxicity signals at approved concentrations.

A silicone resin used as a film former, texture enhancer and opacifying ingredient in makeup, sunscreen and skin care. The Cosmetic Ingredient Review concluded that polysilsesquioxanes including Polymethylsilsesquioxane are safe in current cosmetic use. Available evidence does not identify a pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific concern for normal topical cosmetic exposure.

UV filter used in sunscreens and day products to help absorb UVB radiation. Reviewed cosmetic safety and regulatory sources support current cosmetic use within applicable concentration limits, with no pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific topical concern identified in the material reviewed.

Niacinamide (vitamin B3) is widely used for barrier support and tone/texture benefits, and is generally considered safe in pregnancy and breastfeeding when used topically at cosmetic concentrations.

Hybrid particulate UV filter (often referred to as Tinosorb M or Bisoctrizole). It behaves more like an inorganic, microfine filter, forming a film on the skin surface with minimal percutaneous absorption. EU Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (SCCS) opinions on both conventional and nano forms support its safe use in dermally applied cosmetic products up to 10% under current conditions of use, with main caution relating to inhalation of spray products rather than systemic toxicity from normal topical application.

Coconut-derived emollient ester used as a lightweight skin-conditioning ingredient. Reviewed cosmetic ingredient references do not identify a pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific concern for normal topical use.

Volatile/low-residue silicone emollient used to improve spreadability and sensory feel. Reviewed cosmetic safety sources support normal topical use, with no pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific topical signal identified in the material reviewed.

Organic UV filter used in sunscreens, also known as Iscotrizinol or Uvasorb HEB. Available cosmetic safety and regulatory sources support use within applicable concentration limits. No pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific topical concern was identified in the sources reviewed.

Glycerin is a widely used humectant that supports hydration and the skin barrier, with a long safety record and no known pregnancy or breastfeeding concerns in topical cosmetic use.

1,2-Hexanediol is commonly used as a solvent and preservative booster; topical exposure is low and it has no known pregnancy or breastfeeding concerns at cosmetic concentrations, though very sensitive skin may occasionally react.

Solvent and humectant commonly used in leave-on products. Not associated with pregnancy-specific concerns at cosmetic exposure levels.

A rice-derived extract or wax used for skin conditioning, absorbency or texture. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that the assessed Oryza sativa-derived ingredients are safe in current cosmetic practices. Rice allergy remains possible in a susceptible person.

Camellia sinensis (green tea) leaf extract is used as an antioxidant botanical; topical cosmetic use is considered low concern with no known pregnancy or breastfeeding risks, though rare sensitivities are possible.

A sugarcane extract used for skin conditioning and moisturising. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that Saccharum officinarum extract is safe in current cosmetic practices of use and concentration. It is not the same as a formulated high-strength alpha-hydroxy-acid peel, and no pregnancy-specific concern was identified for normal topical cosmetic exposure.

A brown-algae-derived extract used for skin conditioning and hydration. Cosmetic safety reviewers specifically included this ingredient in the small subset of brown algae extracts found safe in current practices of use and concentration. Manufacturers should control naturally occurring iodine, arsenic and heavy-metal impurities.

A coconut fruit extract used mainly for skin conditioning. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that the supported Cocos nucifera-derived ingredients, including fruit extract, are safe in current practices of use and concentration. This conclusion is ingredient-specific and does not cover coconut shell powder, for which evidence was insufficient.

A botanical root extract used as a skin-conditioning and antioxidant ingredient. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that Panax root-derived ingredients are safe in current practices of use and concentration. The assessment considered the biological activity of ginsenosides and available reproductive and developmental information; ordinary topical cosmetic exposure was not identified as a pregnancy-specific concern. Botanical irritation or allergy remains possible.

Long-chain fatty alcohol used as an emollient and thickener. This is not the same concern profile as simple drying alcohols; reviewed cosmetic safety sources support normal topical use.

An emulsifier built from polyglycerin, methyl glucose and stearic-acid components, used to stabilise creams and improve texture. Exact pregnancy-specific data are limited. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that related methyl glucose esters and polyglyceryl fatty-acid esters are safe in current cosmetic use when formulated to be non-irritating. No pregnancy-specific topical concern was identified by applying those related-group assessments to ordinary cosmetic exposure.

Mild nonionic surfactant used in cleansers and emulsions. Reviewed cosmetic ingredient references support normal topical rinse-off and leave-on use, with no pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific concern identified; sensitive skin may still react to surfactants.

pH adjuster and buffer used to stabilise formulations. Reviewed cosmetic safety sources support normal topical use, with no pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific topical signal identified in the material reviewed.

Polymer thickener used to create gel textures. Large-molecule ingredient with negligible systemic absorption.

Polymer thickener and stabiliser used in creams and sunscreens. Low systemic exposure expected.

Amino-acid-derived emulsifier and skin-conditioning support ingredient. Reviewed cosmetic ingredient references do not identify a pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific concern for normal topical use.

Large polymer thickener and stabilizer used in gels, serums and creams. Systemic exposure from topical cosmetic use is expected to be low, with no pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific concern identified in reviewed cosmetic references.

Skin-conditioning ingredient commonly used in leave-on skincare. Reviewed cosmetic safety sources support normal topical use, with no pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific topical signal identified in the material reviewed.

Natural polysaccharide thickener used for stability and texture. Not associated with pregnancy-specific concerns.

A volatile solvent and denaturant used in small amounts in cosmetics. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that t-butyl alcohol is safe in current practices of use and concentration; their assessment included reproductive and developmental data and found a large exposure margin at cosmetic use levels. It may irritate eyes or skin in concentrated form.

Vitamin E antioxidant used to protect oils and support the skin barrier. Not associated with pregnancy-specific concerns at cosmetic exposure.

Humectant and preservative booster. Considered safe for cosmetic use with low systemic exposure.
