Safety Summary: Coral Slush Plump+ Luscious Tinted SPF 20+ Lip Balm with Mango & Hyaluronic Acid - 10g

Is Coral Slush Plump+ Luscious Tinted SPF 20+ Lip Balm with Mango & Hyaluronic Acid - 10g safe? Yes. It was independently tested at Sigma Test & Research Centre, a laboratory accredited by NABL (Accreditation No. TC-5369). The tested sample, from batch B02, met every safety limit the laboratory checked.

Free from lead, cadmium and arsenic. The report found no detectable lead, cadmium or arsenic - each was below the laboratory's detection limit of 0.25 mg/kg.

Free from harmful bacteria and fungi. Four organisms were tested: Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans. All were reported Absent. Total microbial count was Less than 10 cfu/gm (limit 1000 cfu/gm); Total yeast & mould count was Less than 10 cfu/gm (limit 100 cfu/gm).

Sulphate-free and paraben-free. The published ingredient list contains no sulphates, parabens, silicones or mineral oil. It cleanses using milder amino-acid surfactants - glyceryl glucoside.

Is it chemical free? No cosmetic is chemical-free - water itself is a chemical. This one is free from sulphates, parabens, silicones, mineral oil and any detectable lead, cadmium or arsenic.

What these results cover. The laboratory findings apply to the tested sample from batch B02 and the parameters listed on this page. Skin tolerance is assessed separately, in the dermatological patch test certificate. NABL accredits laboratories, not products.
