PARABENS

Parabens have been a controversial preservative in cosmetic products for a long time.
SCCS, a scientific expert group in the European Union, examine studies about and tests parabens to see if they can present health risks in cosmetic products. Given all suspicions that parabens have a hormone-destructive effect, we at IDUN Minerals have opted out of using parabens.

Instead, we use other preservatives of various kinds as we vary preservatives in all our products to suit all individuals.

Some products, such as our mineral powder foundations, are water-free and therefore doesn’t need any preservative.
