Does Chantecaille Ultra Sun Protection Broad Spectrum SPF 45 Primer contain parabens, sulfates or fragrance?

A straight yes or no for the ingredient groups people most often want to avoid, checked against this product's published formulation.

  • Free from parabens

    Preservatives; the longer-chain ones (propyl, butyl) carry the endocrine questions.

  • Free from sulfates (sls / sles)

    Strong cleansing agents that can strip a compromised barrier.

  • Contains silicones

    Found: dimethicone. Slip and occlusion; cyclic silicones (D4/D5/D6) are the environmentally restricted ones.

  • Free from fragrance / parfum

    Undisclosed fragrance blends are the most common trigger for sensitised skin.

  • Free from essential oils

    Naturally derived, but among the most frequently reported contact allergens.

  • Free from drying alcohol

    Fine in small amounts for texture; high up the list it can dehydrate.

  • Free from formaldehyde releasers

    Preservatives that slowly release formaldehyde.

  • Contains chemical uv filters of concern

    Found: ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate (octinoxate), homosalate. Restricted or debated filters with endocrine or reef-persistence questions.

Is Chantecaille Ultra Sun Protection Broad Spectrum SPF 45 Primer non-comedogenic?

No ingredients in this formulation appear on Selenssa's common pore-clogger list, so it is unlikely to be the cause of congestion for most people. Comedogenicity is still individual — texture, occlusion and how much you use all play a part.

Is Chantecaille Ultra Sun Protection Broad Spectrum SPF 45 Primer safe for sensitive skin?

Generally a reasonable choice for sensitive skin.

  • No fragrance or parfum in the list

Ingredients worth knowing about: Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate (Octinoxate), Homosalate.
