Using Distilled/Infused Water in Cosmetics: Fragrance, Allergies, and Oil-Free Claims
คำถาม
I have questions about using Distilled / Infused Water (such as Rose Water or Lavender Water) in cosmetic formulations. Specifically:
- If added to a cream, is it considered adding fragrance?
- Is there a potential for allergic reactions, similar to chemical perfumes?
- If added to a serum, can the serum still be considered oil-free?

Regarding Distilled / Infused Water
Here are the answers to your questions about using distilled/infused water in cosmetic products:
Is it considered adding perfume when added to cream?
No, adding distilled/infused water such as Rose Water or Lavender Water is not considered adding perfume. These can be registered with the FDA under their specific names (e.g., Rose Water, Lavender Water), which is different from chemical perfumes that must be declared as "Fragrance".Is there a chance of allergy like with perfumes?
Yes, any ingredient can potentially cause an allergic reaction. Allergies are specific to individuals and cannot be predicted.If added to serum, can it be considered an oil-free serum?
Infused water is not considered oil. Therefore, adding it to a serum would not prevent it from being considered oil-free, provided all other ingredients are also oil-free.
