Are the ingredients on the "formulated without" list bad for me?

The ingredients on the list are backed by extensive industry research as ingredients that have a tendency to cause irritation and sensitivity. However, each of us has different skin with different needs, and what causes irritation and sensitivity to one person may cause no problem to another. As a starting point, use the "Clean at Sephora" seal and then read ingredient labels to evaluate products against your own personal standard of clean. Please note that "Clean at Sephora" is not a guarantee or endorsement of the safety of any given product.
