Korres Red Grape SPF 30 Tinted Sunscreen Face Cream is a sunscreen with 42 ingredients. It is rated "use caution" in pregnancy because it contains Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Octocrylene, Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane. Common allergens: fragrance, alcohol denat.
Sensitive skin: fragrance, alcohol denat. Why?
- fragrance: Fragrance or parfum, and scent ingredients listed by name, such as linalool and limonene. The most common cause of skincare allergies; worth avoiding if you have eczema, rosacea, or very sensitive 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
- Exfoliating acid (AHA) (Lactic Acid): Glycolic, lactic, and mandelic acids can irritate young skin, and children rarely need them. We can't see the strength, so low amounts are flagged too.
- Fragrance or essential oils (Parfum/Fragrance): 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
- Exfoliating acid (AHA) (Lactic Acid): Glycolic, lactic, and mandelic acids can irritate, especially alongside acne treatments. Fine for some teens, used a few times a week.
