Caution

Derived from EU CosIng regulatory status, PubChem hazard data and published research. How we score.

A chlorophyll-derived photosensitizer (pheophorbide A) coupled to a PEG-45 phospholipid carrier. Pheophorbide A is well known to cause phototoxic reactions, so this is a niche, non-standard ingredient.

Skin benefits

  • Designed as a delivery system for photoactive cosmetic actives

Known concerns

  • Pheophorbide A is a strong photosensitizer — risk of phototoxic reactions
  • PEG-45 can carry residual 1,4-dioxane
  • Complex molecule with limited cosmetic safety data
  • Not appropriate for general sun-exposed use
