Reviewed 7 times · Methodology v3.1 (updated 8 Oct 2026) — what changed

This shampoo contains Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, a known irritant, and an undisclosed 'Fragrance' blend, which may contain common allergens. While it includes some mild co-surfactants, the primary cleansing agent is harsh, making it less suitable for individuals with sensitive scalps or skin conditions. The presence of 'Preservatives' without specific identification also raises transparency concerns. Trace amounts of Aloe Vera are not counted as a formulation strength.

Contains harsh irritant surfactant and undisclosed fragrance

This shampoo uses Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, a strong cleansing agent known to irritate skin and mucous membranes, especially for those with sensitive scalps. It also includes 'Fragrance' without specifying the individual components, which is a common source of allergens. The product is a rinse-off formula, so exposure is brief, but sensitive individuals should still exercise caution.

Sodium Lauryl Sulfate

SLS is an aggressive surfactant that strips skin of its natural oils, disrupts the skin barrier, and can cause contact dermatitis, canker sores, and eye irritation. People with eczema, psoriasis, or sensitive skin should avoid SLS-containing products. It is particularly harsh in oral care products where it contacts mucous membranes.

Fragrance

"Fragrance" or "parfum" is a catch-all term that can conceal a blend of hundreds of undisclosed chemicals, including known allergens, sensitisers, and potential endocrine disruptors. The EU now mandates disclosure of 82 specific fragrance allergens. People with fragrance sensitivity, asthma, or contact dermatitis should prefer fragrance-free products.

Decode Label Analysis

Sodium Lauryl Sulfate is a strong irritant, especially for sensitive skin and mucous membranes. Use with caution if you have a sensitive scalp or skin conditions.

The product contains 'Fragrance' without specific disclosure of individual allergens. This is a common trigger for contact dermatitis and allergic reactions in sensitive individuals.

Coconut Diethanolamine is a foam booster that can form potentially carcinogenic nitrosamines when combined with certain other ingredients. Its use is restricted in some regions.

The ingredient 'GHTC' is unrecognized, and 'Preservatives' are generically listed. This lack of transparency makes a full safety assessment difficult and may hide potential irritants or allergens.

Combined Effects interactions

Coconut Diethanolamine Preservatives

Coconut Diethanolamine can react with nitrosating agents (which may be present in some preservative systems or raw materials) to form nitrosamines, which are classified by IARC as Group 2B (possibly carcinogenic to humans).

About this analysis: Based on declared label information and available evidence. Decode Label does not independently laboratory-test products, and a score is not a regulatory determination or medical advice.

Disclaimer: Safety scores are Decode Label-generated assessments based on publicly available regulatory data (FSSAI, WHO, EFSA, IARC) and peer-reviewed research. They are not a substitute for professional medical advice, and they are not a regulatory determination, a laboratory safety certification or a medical diagnosis. Ingredient safety can vary by individual health conditions, concentration, and usage context. Decode Label is an independent information service and scores every brand by the same rules. No brand pays for or influences its score. Our founder also founded the personal-care brand Botani Bestie (see our story); its products are scored exactly like everyone else's. Data limitations: This assessment is based on the information declared on the product label and the evidence sources above — Decode Label does not independently laboratory-test this product. Ingredient concentrations, sourcing and manufacturing can vary between batches and are not always disclosed. A finding that is not shown here means it was not identified from the available label information, not that it has been ruled out.
