Safety Summary: Oil-Free Daily Face Moisturizer with Hyaluronic Acid, Ceramides & Multivitamins for Non-Greasy & Hydrated Skin
Is Oil-Free Daily Face Moisturizer with Hyaluronic Acid, Ceramides & Multivitamins for Non-Greasy & Hydrated Skin safe? Yes. It was independently tested at Sigma Test & Research Centre, a laboratory accredited by NABL (Accreditation No. TC-5369). The tested sample, from batch DFM002, met every safety limit the laboratory checked.
Free from lead and cadmium. The report found no detectable lead or cadmium - both were below the laboratory's detection limit of 0.25 mg/kg.
Free from harmful bacteria and fungi. One organism was tested: Candida albicans. All were reported Absent.
Gentle, skin-friendly pH. The measured pH is 5.40, which is mildly acidic.
Sulphate-free and paraben-free. The published ingredient list contains no sulphates, parabens or mineral oil. Preservation uses phenoxyethanol, sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate.
Is it chemical free? No cosmetic is chemical-free - water itself is a chemical. This one is free from sulphates, parabens, mineral oil and any detectable lead or cadmium.
What these results cover. The laboratory findings apply to the tested sample from batch DFM002 and the parameters listed on this page. Skin tolerance is assessed separately, in the dermatological patch test certificate. NABL accredits laboratories, not products.
