PURITO Azelaic Acid 10 Kojic Tea Tree Serum

An exact label variant for tea tree essential oil. The SCCS concluded that tea tree oil is safe only in specific defended adult dermal product types and concentrations, excluded aerosolised and sprayable formats, and identified it as a moderate skin sensitiser. MamaSkin therefore classifies it as low risk because safety is formulation- and route-dependent, not because it is a pregnancy contraindication.

Water (Aqua) is the standard purified water used as a cosmetic solvent. It has no pregnancy-specific risk in normal topical use.

A botanical extract, plant water or plant juice used for conditioning, soothing or antioxidant support. Direct pregnancy studies of this exact cosmetic material were not identified, but no reproductive or developmental hazard was identified for normal topical exposure. Oral herbal or medicinal use is outside this classification.

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

Common emollient derived from fatty acids and glycerin. Used to soften skin and improve texture without pregnancy-specific concerns.

A plant-derived carbohydrate polymer or modified starch used to thicken, stabilise or condition a formula. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that the supported plant polysaccharide gums and derivatives are safe in current practices of use and concentration. Loose powders should still be used without deliberately inhaling airborne particles.

An inorganic phosphate salt used mainly to buffer or adjust the pH of a formula. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that phosphoric acid and its simple salts, including disodium phosphate, are safe in current cosmetic use when products are formulated to avoid irritation. No pregnancy-specific concern is identified for normal topical exposure.

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.

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.

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.

Polysaccharide carrier and bulking agent used for texture and delivery support. Reviewed cosmetic safety sources support normal topical use, with no pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific topical signal identified in the material reviewed.

Cellulose-derived thickener used to build viscosity and improve texture. Reviewed cosmetic safety sources support normal topical use, with no pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific topical signal identified in the material reviewed.

A plant-derived polysaccharide used to thicken and stabilise formulas. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that agar is safe in current practices. Loose powder should not be deliberately inhaled.

A high-molecular-weight carbohydrate gum produced by microbial fermentation and used for hydration, texture or film formation. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that the assessed microbial polysaccharide gums are safe in current practices of use and concentration. Dermal absorption of the intact polymers is expected to be limited.

Preservative booster and skin-conditioning agent. Considered safe for cosmetic use with low systemic exposure when used as intended.

The official CIR quick-reference record identifies the exact ingredient as safe under its final assessment.

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.

Chelating ingredient used to improve formula stability by binding trace metals. Reviewed cosmetic ingredient references do not identify a pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific concern for normal topical use.

A mineral-derived cosmetic material used for colour, absorbency or conditioning. Dermal absorption is expected to be limited and no reproductive or developmental concern was identified for normal compliant topical use.

Amino acid used as a humectant, skin-conditioning agent, and pH-adjusting support ingredient. 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.

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

An antioxidant peptide naturally present in the body and used in topical products for skin conditioning and tone. Clinical studies and systematic reviews report generally good tolerance of topical glutathione, although evidence for cosmetic benefits remains limited. No pregnancy-specific topical signal was identified.

A terpene alcohol used for skin conditioning and soothing. Cosmetic safety reviewers reaffirmed bisabolol as safe at current cosmetic concentrations, and reproductive and developmental testing did not identify adverse effects. Bisabolol can increase skin penetration, so formulators should consider the safety of other ingredients in the same product.

Helianthus annuus (sunflower) seed oil is a common emollient rich in fatty acids and is generally well tolerated, with no known pregnancy or breastfeeding concerns in topical cosmetic use.
