Allergy & Sensitivity Information

At Nina Naturals, sensitivity and fragrance intolerance aren’t an afterthought — they’re the reason we exist.

Many people come to fragrance-free skincare because their skin reacts easily, unpredictably, or painfully. Nina Naturals was created with that reality in mind, using thoughtful formulation, minimal ingredient lists, and a commitment to transparency so you can make informed choices for your skin.

Our Approach to Sensitive & Reactive Skin

When we describe our products as allergy-conscious, we mean that they are carefully formulated with the goal of minimizing common triggers for irritation and sensitivity.

Our formulas are:

• Fragrance-free
• Essential oil–free
• Free from commonly recognized allergens
• Free from commonly recognized chemical irritants
• Designed with clean, minimal, purposeful ingredients that are sourced from nature where possible.
• Created to support the skin barrier and overall comfort

Because every person’s skin is unique, no skincare can guarantee zero reactions. Our goal is to reduce unnecessary risk — not to make absolute claims.

Our Commitment to Limiting Common Chemical Irritants

In addition to avoiding fragrance and essential oils, Nina Naturals is committed to limiting the use of commonly recognized cosmetic irritants that can be problematic for sensitive or reactive skin.

Our formulas are created without:

• Artificial fragrance or fragrance oils

• Essential oils

• Phthalates

• Formaldehyde or formaldehyde-releasing agents

• Sulfates

• Harsh or high-sensitization preservatives

When preservation is necessary, we prioritize gentle, well-tolerated systems selected with sensitive skin in mind. Every ingredient in our formulas serves a clear purpose, with comfort, stability, and skin support as guiding principles.

We believe that fewer, thoughtfully chosen ingredients help reduce unnecessary exposure and support a calmer skin experience.

Facility & Formulation Standards

Nina Naturals products are made in a fragrance-free facility that excludes commonly recognized allergens, including:

• Peanuts
• Tree Nuts (except refined shea butter)
  
• Shellfish
• Sesame
• Soy
• Milk
• Wheat

We take care to limit exposure to common cosmetic irritants during production. However, we cannot guarantee suitability for every individual, particularly those with rare or highly specific allergies.

Ingredient Transparency

We believe transparency is essential for people with sensitive or reactive skin.

• Full ingredient lists are provided for every product

• Ingredients are listed using standard INCI naming

• We encourage you to review all ingredients carefully and consider your personal sensitivities before use

If you have known allergies or sensitivities, we recommend consulting with a healthcare professional before introducing any new skincare product. Learn more about our natural ingredients here.

About Shea Butter & Aloe Vera

Some Nina Naturals products contain refined shea butter and aloe vera.

• Refined shea butter allergies are considered rare for most people, including many with nut sensitivities

• Aloe vera is widely used in sensitive-skin formulations and is typically well tolerated

That said, individual reactions can still occur. If you know you are sensitive to shea butter, aloe vera, or related ingredients, we recommend avoiding use.

Educational resources about these ingredients are available on reputable dermatology and allergy-focused websites, which we encourage you to review.

Patch Testing: A Simple Step for Confidence

Because sensitivities vary from person to person, we strongly recommend patch testing before first full use of any new product.

Patch testing allows you to:

• Observe how your skin responds

• Introduce new products with confidence

• Reduce the risk of widespread irritation

Even products designed for sensitive skin can cause reactions for some individuals.

A Shared Responsibility

Our role is to:

• Formulate thoughtfully

• Avoid unnecessary irritants

• Be transparent about ingredients and processes

Your role is to:

• Review ingredient lists

• Know your personal sensitivities

• Patch test before full use

This shared approach helps create the safest and most positive experience possible.

Our Commitment

Nina Naturals is committed to creating skincare that feels gentle, effective, and trustworthy for many people with sensitive, reactive, or fragrance-intolerant skin.

While no skincare works for everyone, we believe honesty, care, and thoughtful formulation matter — and we’re always here to support you in making informed choices.
