Sensitive skin: fragrance, niacinamide Why?

- niacinamide: A popular, well-tolerated ingredient that can cause redness or flushing for a few people, especially at high strengths.

Is DIFFER & DEEPER Melatinol Cloud Cream safe to use during pregnancy?
Jouaxia rates DIFFER & DEEPER Melatinol Cloud Cream "Avoid" for pregnancy because it contains Retinol.

Is it OK for kids and teens?
Kids (ages 3–11)
Not for kids
- Retinoid (vitamin A) (Retinol): An anti-aging and acne active children's skin doesn't need; dermatologists see red, itchy rashes in kids who use retinoids, and they make skin more sensitive to the sun.
- Vitamin C active (Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate, Ascorbic Acid): 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 (Limonene, Fragrance, Benzyl Benzoate, Linalool, Hexyl Cinnamal): 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
- Anti-aging retinoid (Retinol): Teen skin doesn't need anti-aging retinol, and it can irritate and make skin more sensitive to the sun. For pimples, adapalene (sold over the counter from age 12) is the retinoid dermatologists recommend.
Helps with acne: Niacinamide.
