Beauty Counter Dew Skin Tinted Moisturizer SPF 20 is a sunscreen with 45 ingredients. It is rated "use caution" in pregnancy because it contains Salvia Sclarea (Clary) Oil. Common allergens: essential oils, alcohol denat.
Sensitive skin: essential oils, alcohol denat. Why?
- essential oils: Plant oils such as tea tree, lavender, citrus peel, and peppermint. Natural, but a common cause of irritation and allergies, especially on sensitive or broken skin.
- alcohol denat.: Denatured alcohol, which helps products feel light and dry fast but can dry out or sting dry and sensitive skin. Fatty alcohols like cetyl alcohol are different and aren't flagged.
These flags don't affect the pregnancy rating. They point out the ingredients most likely to make skincare sting, itch, or cause a rash. If your skin is sensitive, or one of them has bothered you before, you may want to skip the product or patch-test it first. Most people use them without a problem.

Is it OK for kids and teens?
Kids (ages 3–11)
Use with care
- Vitamin C active (Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate): Dermatologists say children don't need vitamin C serums and that they can cause redness, burning, or peeling on young skin (American Academy of Dermatology, American Academy of Pediatrics). We can't see the strength, so low amounts are flagged too.
- Fragrance or essential oils (Citrus Aurantium Bergamia (Bergamot) Fruit Oil, Salvia Sclarea (Clary) Oil): Children's skin reacts to fragrance and essential oils more easily; fragrance-free products are the usual advice for kids, especially with eczema or sensitive skin.
Teens (ages 12–17)
Use with care
- Essential oils (Citrus Aurantium Bergamia (Bergamot) Fruit Oil, Salvia Sclarea (Clary) Oil): A common cause of irritation and allergies, and they don't help acne.
