“—” 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 VT Cosmetics official store, retrieved Oct 17, 2026. Formulas change — check the label on the package you buy.
