Paraben Free

Adjective

Paraben Free is the absence of the harmful group of compounds used as preservatives in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and food. 

Parabens can disrupt hormones in the body, affect birth outcomes, increase the risk of cancer and also cause skin irritations. 

Therefore it is important to seek out products that do not contain these harmful toxins.  Any product depicted as Paraben Free means they do not contain these harmful agents.  The most commonly used parabens are methyl and ethyl parabens.  These are widely used to preserve formulations that particularly contain oil and water.

Example of Paraben Free in a sentence
I feel confident using my favourite sunscreen as it is paraben free.

Synonyms
chemical free, no preservatives, compounds, esters, free from chemicals
