Use cautionMakeupAlso SunscreenFrom United States

Max Factor 3 in 1 Miracle Prep Beauty Protect Primer SPF 30 PA+++ is a makeup with 48 ingredients. It is rated "use caution" in pregnancy because it contains Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane, Octocrylene. Common allergens: alcohol denat.

Sensitive skin: alcohol denat. Why?
  • 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.

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.
