Synthetic Fragrance in Lip Gloss

Creates a pleasant scent that enhances the consumer experience and brand identity. Synthetic fragrances are far cheaper than natural essential oils.

In our database, 11 lip gloss products contain Synthetic Fragrance as a flagged ingredient. The actual number on the market is likely much higher, as our database covers major brands but not every product available.

Risk depends on exposure route and frequency. Lip Gloss products are applied directly to the lips, where ingredients are ingested through eating and drinking. Daily exposure to hidden fragrance chemicals adds to cumulative toxicant load.

Look for lip gloss products that use essential oils (properly diluted and disclosed), fragrance-free formulations, naturally-derived aroma compounds instead of Synthetic Fragrance. Numbrrrz lip balm uses only organic, food-grade ingredients and contains zero flagged chemicals.
