adults • Skin contact product
For adults, this ingredient is generally low risk when used on normal, unbroken skin. The biggest issue is that small amounts of leftover chemicals from making the ingredient can sometimes be in products.
Pick creams, gels, or lotions from brands that mention purity, testing, or safe manufacturing. Don’t use products with this ingredient on cuts, sores, or irritated skin. If the product is a spray, avoid breathing the mist. If you get redness, stinging, or a rash, stop using it and rinse the area.
The provided ingredient information flags contamination concerns (leftover monomers like methacrylic/acrylic acids and, rarely, impurities such as benzene) and some reports of irritation. Because of that, avoid use on broken skin, avoid inhaling sprays, and choose products from manufacturers that test for impurities. If you have any new or worsening skin reaction, stop use and see a doctor.
