“—” means no specific record for that ingredient in that jurisdiction's lists — it is not an approval. Restricted ingredients are allowed within limits (concentration, product type, label warnings); a product listing one is not necessarily over the limit. How we check.
Ingredient list from Etude official store, retrieved Oct 17, 2026. Formulas change — check the label on the package you buy.
Fragrance allergens (EU labelling)
None of the fragrance allergens the EU requires to be labelled appear in this ingredient list, but it lists “Fragrance/Parfum”, which can contain them below the labelling threshold.
Source: EU Cosmetics Regulation Annex III as amended by Regulation (EU) 2023/1545 — the list grew from 26 to over 80 entries; it applies to new products from 31 July 2026 and to all products from 31 July 2028. Shown for information; it is not a sign that a product is unsafe.
Other markets
Ingredients in this formula that are prohibited or limited in other markets, from the overseas regulation database compiled by Korea's MFDS. Limited means allowed within conditions.
Products from other brands whose ingredient lists overlap most with this one. The score weighs the first ingredients most (labels list them roughly by amount), skips ingredients found in most products, and counts UV filters and less common ingredients more. Similar ingredient lists (not a test of how they work) — amounts, texture and results can differ.
