Ingredient
Fragrance
Quick Summary
Fragrance is a skincare ingredient used for skin sensitivity routines. It is best judged by formula context, concentration, frequency, and skin tolerance rather than by the ingredient name alone.
What It Is
Fragrance is used in leave-on or rinse-off cosmetic formulas depending on the product type. In SKB it is framed as a cosmetic skincare ingredient, not a prescription treatment or a diagnosis tool.
Mechanism
Fragrance is a label term for a mixture of scent compounds. Its mechanism in this context is not treatment; it is exposure. Small fragrance molecules can trigger irritation or allergic contact dermatitis in susceptible users, especially on already reactive skin.
The mechanism is practical, not magical: vehicle, pH where relevant, dose, frequency, and the rest of the routine decide whether the ingredient feels helpful or irritating. Results should be judged gradually, and sensitive users should introduce it separately from other strong actives.
