How to use

Apply 1--2 pumps onto clean skin before moisturizing. For external use only. Store in a cool, dry place and out of direct sunlight.

Red does not mean poison. Preservatives that stop a product going off, UV filters and fragrance can land on yellow or red depending on their score.

Green does not mean right for you. Skin and allergies differ from person to person. Treat the color as a starting point.
