Not claimed means exactly that: we do not publish the claim for that product, so we will not make it here or in a conversation. It does not mean the opposite.
The claims we do not make
- Non-comedogenic: not claimed on any product.
- Hypoallergenic: not claimed on any product. Any ingredient can cause a reaction in someone.
- Cruelty-free: we publish no cruelty-free certification, so we do not state it.
- Safe in pregnancy, or with a given allergy or condition: we do not clear products for anyone. Take the ingredient list to your doctor.
Glossary
| Ingredient | What it is | What it does in our formulas |
|---|---|---|
| Dimethicone | A silicone | Gives slip and a smooth, even film; the base of the foundation, the concealer and the primer |
| Isododecane | A light, volatile solvent | Lets a formula spread, then evaporates so the color sets; in the long-wear lip and the lipstick |
| Trimethylsiloxysilicate | A silicone resin | Forms the flexible film that makes the liquid lip and the gel pencil transfer-resistant |
| Iron oxides (CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 77499) | Mineral pigments: red, yellow and black | The three pigments that, mixed with white, make every skin shade |
| Titanium dioxide (CI 77891) | A white mineral pigment | Gives coverage and lightens a shade; the reason a pale powder can flash back in photos |
| Mica | A mineral that reflects light | Soft sheen in powders, blush and highlighter |
| Silica | A mineral powder | Absorbs oil and blurs; the base of our powders in place of talc |
| Boron nitride | A soft, slippery mineral | Makes eyeshadow blend without patching |
| Squalane | A light, stable oil | Slip and comfort without greasiness; in the foundation, the tint and the lip oil |
| Glycerin | A humectant | Holds water in the formula and on the skin |
| Sodium hyaluronate | A humectant | Helps the base sit comfortably rather than cling |
| Niacinamide | A form of vitamin B3 | Included in the foundation and the setting spray; we make no skin-treatment claim for it |
| Caffeine | A plant-derived compound | Included in the concealer; we make no claim that it treats dark circles |
| Panthenol | Provitamin B5 | A conditioning agent in the tint, the spray and the brow gel |
| Candelilla wax and carnauba wax | Plant waxes | Give structure to the lipstick, the blush balm and the mascara |
| Jojoba esters and jojoba oil | Plant-derived emollients | Comfort in the lipstick, the balm and the lip oil |
| Acrylates copolymer and polyvinyl alcohol | Film-forming polymers | Form the tubes of the tubing mascara and the hold of the brow gel |
| Red 7 Lake (CI 15850) | A synthetic red pigment | The reds and pinks of the lip products |
| Ginger root oil, peppermint oil, menthyl lactate, vanillyl butyl ether | Warming and cooling agents | Create the tingle of the Flare Plumping Gloss; they are why it asks for a patch test |
| Tocopherol | Vitamin E | An antioxidant that protects the oils in a formula |
| Phenoxyethanol and ethylhexylglycerin | A preservative system | Keep water-based formulas safe to use after opening |
Patch testing
Apply a little
A small amount on the inner wrist.
Wait a day
Leave it for 24 hours.
Read it
Redness, itching or swelling means the product is not for you.
We ask for a patch test before the first use of any new complexion or lip product, and it is printed on the carton of the Flare Plumping Gloss.
If you react to a product
Stop using it and rinse it off. See a doctor if it does not settle, and urgently if there is swelling near the eyes or the throat or your breathing is affected. Then write to us with the product, the shade and the batch code printed on the packaging: every report goes to our product safety team. We will not tell you which ingredient was responsible, because we cannot know that; we will give you the full list to take to your doctor. A product that caused a reaction is refundable even if it was opened.
