๐ก๏ธ Safety & Compatibility

Mostly safe โ but it does contain Meadowfoam (Limnanthes Alba) Seed Oil, whose fatty acids can be a trigger for very malassezia-sensitive skin.
No added synthetic or essential-oil fragrance, lowering the risk of fragrance-related sensitivity.
Includes Citric Acid as a pH adjuster, which can occasionally trigger flare-ups in rosacea-prone skin. Patch test first.
Layers well over retinol, vitamin C, AHA or BHA โ its calming extracts can help buffer the dryness those actives may cause.

โ Frequently Asked Questions
It contains no retinoids, salicylic acid, hydroquinone or chemical sunscreen filters โ the ingredients most often flagged during pregnancy. It's built mainly from soothing plant extracts, glycerin and gentle humectants, so it's generally considered a suitable, low-risk option. As with any product, confirm with your doctor or OB-GYN before use during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
It's mostly fungal-acne friendly and is broadly labeled fungal-acne-safe by ingredient checkers, but it does contain Meadowfoam (Limnanthes Alba) Seed Oil. Its fatty acids can be a potential trigger for people who are very sensitive to malassezia. If you have confirmed fungal acne, patch test first or choose a strictly oil-free option.
Yes. This is a calming, low-active moisturizer, so it layers well over treatment products. Apply your retinol, vitamin C or exfoliating acid first, let it absorb, then seal with this moisturizer โ its soothing extracts can actually help buffer the dryness or tingling those actives sometimes cause.
It performs best on oily, combination, acne-prone and sensitive skin thanks to its lightweight, non-greasy feel and calming botanicals. Very dry skin can still use it but may want a richer cream or facial oil layered on top for extra moisture.
Hydration and a calmer, softer feel are usually immediate. Visible reduction in redness and irritation is often reported within 1โ2 weeks of consistent use, while smoother texture and a stronger, more balanced barrier typically build over 4 weeks or more.
It's your moisturizing step โ apply it after cleansing, toner/essence and any serums or treatments. In the morning, always follow with sunscreen; at night you can finish with a sleeping mask if your skin wants extra comfort.
It's low on the comedogenic scale (around 1/5). The formula is glycerin- and extract-led with an oil-light feel, and it's a popular choice for oily, acne-prone skin precisely because it hydrates without a heavy, pore-clogging finish. The single plant oil (meadowfoam) is also considered low-comedogenic.
Plan to use it within about 12 months of opening for best results. Keep it in a cool, dry spot out of direct sunlight and close the cap firmly between uses to protect the formula.
Verdict: Healez Beauty's Daily Regenerative Soothing Moisturizer is a smart, affordable choice for sensitive and acne-prone skin. Its short, fragrance-free ingredient list pairs a 7-plant soothing blend with hypochlorous acid and centella to calm redness and hydrate without weighing skin down. It loses a little ground for very dry skin and for strict fungal-acne avoiders (due to meadowfoam oil), plus the small 10g/30g sizes and limited international availability. But as a gentle, barrier-supporting daily moisturizer at a budget price, it punches well above its weight.

Understanding Silicones
If you've ever used a skincare, makeup or beauty product that's made your skin look and feel smoother tempoarily - it's likely contained Silicone. They are a popular class of ingredients found in cosmetics due to their smooth, soft, easy-to-spread and smooth properties that help creates an artificial layer/barrier on top of skin or hair (commonly found in conditioners).
For the same reasons they are popularly used, they are also commonly avoided. Anecdotally, many individuals have reported that Silicones cause/excerbate breakouts, irritation, cause a feeling of skin being unable to breathe, cause clumping of cosmetic products and find it difficult to wash off. As a result, those who find them problematic are avoiding them and increasingly, cosmetic companies are avoiding them as well.
If you have had bad experiences with Silicones in the past, or suspect they are problematic then look out for the tick on the Silicone-free label.
Disclaimer
The Silicone-free label only includes the most common Silicone ingredients that have indentified been reported by individuals that could potentially cause issues.
These include: Amodimethicone, Behenoxy Dimethicone, Bis-Aminopropyl Dimethicone, Cetearyl Methicone, Cetyl Dimethicone, Cyclomethicone, Cyclopentasiloxane, Dimethicone, Dimethicone Copolyol, Dimethiconol, Methicone, Phenyl Trimethicone, Phenyl Trimethicone, Stearoxy Dimethicone, Stearyl Dimethicone, Trimethylsilylamodimethicone.

EU Allergen-Free
EU Allergen-Free
Understanding the Identified Contact Allergens
The EU's Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (SCCS) has identified and established 26 cosmetic ingredients that are likely contact allergens (potential to cause skin allergies) as demonstrated in clinical or epidemiological studies. The EU's SCCS have recommend cosmetic companies to disclose them on the labels if used and in cases where the concentration exceeds 0.001% in leave-on products and 0.01% in rinse-off products, then they must be labelled.
Look out for the tick on the EU-Allergen free label to know your cosmetic is free from any of the 26 identified cosmetic ingredients.
For more information regarding the EU's Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety, please visit their official website.
Disclaimer
The EU Allergen Free label is for the 26 ingredients identified by the EU SCCS and products will be only flagged if a suspected ingredient is on it's ingredient list. It is possible for cosmetics to contain one of the suspect ingredients without it appearing on the ingredient list due to it not reaching the concentration threshold to disclose it and cosmetic manufacturers choice to not disclose it.
Also note, the EU Allergen Free label is not personalized for your own allergies you may have and it does not constitute as medical advice. For your specific case, always consult your medical professiona such as dermatologist, physician, pharmacist, or health care provider - please read our medical disclaimer for more information.
Fungal Acne (Molassezia) Safe
Fungal Acne (Molassezia) Safe
Understanding Fungal Acne (Pityrosporum Folliculitis/Malassezia Folliculitis)
Pityrosporum Folliculitis/Malassezia folliculitis or simply known as Fungal Acne is a persistent acne-like condition that commonly responds poorly to traditional acne-treating methods. Unlike most cases of Acne where bacteria is the culprit, Fungi is the culprit of Fungal Acne (Hence the name!). There are certain classes & groups of ingredients that have been shown to promote and feed the growth of the Fungal Acne, Fungi such as fatty acids, oils, esters, polysorbates and fermented ingredients.
For more information regarding Fungal Acne, please visit Simple Skincare Science (f.c) - #3 of our Recommend Skincare Resources for an amazing comprehensive guide!
Please Read: How to use the Fungal Acne (Malassezia) Label
At SkinCarisma, we've done our best to identify as many ingredients as possible but note the fungal-free label may not be 100% accurate due to the complexconditions and combination of ingredients that malezzeria can thrive on.
Additionally, products that may contain ingredients that have shown to feed Malassezia may not neccessarily exacerbate the condition due to concentration of ingredient used in the product, this information is simply not available on the products.
As a result, please note this is only an experimental label that can be best used to possible identify problematic products you have used in the past. It is in no way a perfect identifier nor a predictor in whether or not it will exacerbate or cause fungal acne. It will continue to be worked on as more information and research comes to light.
If you find any ingredients you believe should be included, please email us at snails@skincarisma.com.
Disclaimer
Due to the lack of substantial research into this area it is very likely there are other ingredients and class/groups of ingredients that could feed Fungal Acne which have not been indentified.
The Fungal-Safe label does not constitute as medical advice. For your specific case, always consult your medical professiona such as dermatologist, physician, pharmacist, or health care provider - please read our medical disclaimer for more information.
What are Notable Effects & Ingredients?
Ever used a product that promised a certain effect but provided no results? It might not have contained any notable ingredients that could have been responsible for that promised effect. It doesn't matter what the marketing or packaging ยซpromisesยป it can do, if it doesn't contain anything that can help - then the likelihood of it helping is low.
We help you identify key notable ingredients that have been shown to help with effects such as acne-fighting, brightening, UV-protection, wound healing & anti-aging to help you achieve your skincare goals smarter. Please note that different notable ingredients have varying levels of research behind them, some are extremely well proven yet some have mixed research in their efficacy.
Pro Tip Alert!
Just because a product doesn't contain any notable ingredients doesn't mean it's bad. And a product with notable ingredients (or even many) doesn't necessarily guarantee the efficacy of the product performing these effects either. There are other factors such as ingredient quality, concentration and formulation that will ultimately determine this.
Be smart and use this as just a starting point for you to make more informed and smarter choices and compare it with reviews to see if the product is right for you

Pro Tip Alert!
A product that contains good or bad ingredients for your skin type doesn't always flat out make the entire product good or bad for your skin. There are other factors such as ingredient quality, concentration and formulation that will ultimately determine your skins reaction.

What is the Ingredient Safety Breakdown?
Ingredient Safety Breakdown refers to the percentage % of ingredients in different risk categories as classified by EWG (Environment Working Group) if they are available. There are almost endless cosmetic ingredients and they are one of the few organisations globally that have assigned ratings to a lot of the more commonly used ingredients which is why we reference them.
Pro Tip Alert!
EWG is seen by many to be more on the alarmist side in their assignment of health ratings resulting in rating ingredients as riskier than they actually are. We recommend using this a reference point rather than a strict guide of ingredient safety and to always do further research if into ingredients that you may find suspect.
