SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Tone Brightening Cleansing Gel Foam

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.

A mild amphoteric cleansing surfactant. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that disodium cocoamphodiacetate is safe as used; the original conclusion was reaffirmed on re-review, while the current group reassessment proposes non-sensitising formulation controls. Impurities may contribute to occasional irritation or allergy.

An amino-acid-derived surfactant or conditioning ingredient. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that amino acid alkyl amides are safe in current cosmetic practices when formulated to be non-irritating. Manufacturing and formulation should control nitrosamine formation where relevant.

Sodium chloride is used to adjust viscosity and texture in formulations; topical cosmetic use is considered low concern with no known pregnancy or breastfeeding risks.

A fatty-acid salt used mainly as a soap, cleanser, emulsifier or formula structurant. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that sodium palmate and potassium cocoate are safe in current cosmetic practices, with non-irritating formulation conditions where specified.

An amino-acid-derived surfactant or conditioning ingredient. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that amino acid alkyl amides are safe in current cosmetic practices when formulated to be non-irritating. Manufacturing and formulation should control nitrosamine formation where relevant.

A grape fruit or seed extract used for skin conditioning and antioxidant support. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that the assessed Vitis vinifera-derived ingredients are safe in current practices when formulated to be non-irritating and non-sensitising. Botanical sensitivity remains possible.

An apple fruit extract used mainly for skin conditioning. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that Pyrus malus fruit extract and the other supported apple-derived ingredients are safe in current cosmetic practices of use and concentration. The conclusion does not extend to several separately identified root, stem, callus or oil ingredients for which evidence was insufficient. No pregnancy-specific concern was identified for normal topical use of the fruit extract.

A papaya fruit extract used for skin conditioning. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that Carica papaya fruit and fruit-derived ingredients are safe in current cosmetic practices; this conclusion does not extend to papaya leaf extract, for which the available evidence was insufficient. No pregnancy-specific concern was identified for normal topical cosmetic exposure.

A botanical extract, juice or water used primarily for skin conditioning, moisturising, soothing or antioxidant support. Direct pregnancy studies of the named cosmetic material were not identified. No reproductive or developmental hazard was identified for normal topical exposure to a compliant finished cosmetic; oral herbal or medicinal use is outside this classification.

A triterpene glycoside associated with Centella asiatica and used in soothing and skin-conditioning formulas. Pregnancy-specific evidence for isolated topical madecassoside is limited. Cosmetic safety reviewers considered Centella-derived ingredients acceptable at current cosmetic exposure but noted that madecassoside and related triterpenes may contribute to sensitisation, so products should be formulated to avoid sensitising concentrations. No pregnancy-specific topical contraindication was identified in the reviewed material.

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.

A sugar-derived humectant commonly used with xylitol and anhydroxylitol to support skin hydration. Exact pregnancy-specific topical data are limited. Cosmetic safety assessments of the related saccharide mixture and xylitol did not identify a reproductive or pregnancy-specific concern at cosmetic exposure; available data primarily support local tolerance rather than proving pregnancy safety. No topical contraindication was identified in the reviewed material.

Sugar-derived humectant used to support hydration, often as part of saccharide blends. Reviewed cosmetic safety sources support normal topical use, with no pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific topical signal identified in the material reviewed.

Sugar alcohol humectant used to help maintain hydration and improve skin feel. Reviewed cosmetic safety sources support normal topical use, with no pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific topical signal 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.

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

A stable ether derivative of vitamin C used as an antioxidant and brightening ingredient. Pregnancy-specific topical studies are limited, but no pregnancy-specific contraindication was identified in the reviewed literature. Published case reports describe allergic contact dermatitis, so local sensitivity remains possible and this classification should not be read as proof that irritation cannot occur.

Sugar-derived humectant used to help bind water and improve skin feel. Reviewed cosmetic ingredient references do not identify a pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific concern for normal topical cosmetic use.

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

Panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) is used for soothing and barrier support and is generally well tolerated, with no known pregnancy or breastfeeding concerns in topical cosmetic 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.

Simple sugar used as a humectant and skin-conditioning support ingredient. Reviewed cosmetic ingredient references do not identify a pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific concern for normal topical cosmetic use.

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

Solvent and humectant used to improve texture and ingredient solubility in topical cosmetics. Reviewed cosmetic ingredient references do not identify a pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific concern for normal topical use.

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

pH adjuster used in small amounts to maintain product stability. Not associated with pregnancy-specific concerns.

A functional cosmetic ingredient used for preservation support, pH control, chelation, solvent action or formula stability. Concentrated material may irritate skin or eyes, but no pregnancy-specific reproductive or developmental hazard was identified for normal use in a compliant finished cosmetic.

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