Fragrance-Free Skincare Brands

Plain and simple, fragrance is a known skin irritant. And as someone with sensitive skin, eczema-prone skin, I know that fragrance in skincare is a prevalent trigger in causing flare-ups.

That’s why it’s important for me to carefully check the ingredients list of skincare products, avoiding labels with the words fragrance, perfume or parfum, and even essential oils. While some essential oils don’t irritate my skin when used sparingly, others definitely do!

With that said, here’s a short list of skincare brands that are 100% fragrance-free.

ABSOLUTE JOI

BIOLOGIQUE RECHERCHE

CERAVE

DR. BARBARA STURM

DRUNK ELEPHANT

HOLIFROG

KRAVE BEAUTY

LEELA’S BODY COCKTAILS

PAULA’S CHOICE

SCHAF SKINCARE

SIMPLE

Please keep in mind that there are many brands with fragrance-free products, but for this post, I am only referencing brands that ONLY sell fragrance-free products.

Many of these brands I use consistently, but I know I’m missing other fragrance-free skincare brands!

So, please leave a comment with other 100% fragrance-free brands below (and I’ll make sure to update my list).
