Caution

What is this ingredient, what does it do?

Peppermint/menthol/camphor (can irritate)

May cause irritation

What is it, what should you do?

Components that give a cooling, refreshing sensation to the skin, often used in foot and lip care products and some shampoos. That refreshing sensation is actually a mild irritation response; on sensitive skin or around the eyes it can cause stinging and redness. It is sensible to avoid frequent use on dry and sensitive skin so as not to tire the skin's natural barrier.

Other names: Peppermint oil, Menthol, Menthoxypropanediol, Camphor
