Frequently Asked Questions
Is Red safe for daily use?+
Red's Grade B PSS rating supports daily use for most consumers. However, because it contains D-Limonene (a documented allergen), individuals with sensitive skin, fragrance sensitivities, or citrus allergies should test on a small skin area first and monitor for irritation over 24–48 hours before applying to larger areas.
Are there any ingredients I should watch out for?+
D-Limonene is the primary concern; it is a natural terpene that can cause contact dermatitis or allergic sensitization in susceptible individuals. The other leading ingredients (2,6-Dimethyl-7-octen-2-ol, Linalyl Acetate, and Tetramethyl Acetyloctahydronaphthalenes) have established safety profiles in fragrances. Always review the full ingredient list if you have known fragrance allergies.
What does a PSS of 6.9/10 (Grade B) mean?+
The Product Safety Scale (PSS) is an independent HumanSafe™ rating that evaluates ingredient safety, concentration levels, and documented consumer effects. A Grade B score indicates the product is generally safe for typical use, but carries minor cautions—in Red's case, the presence of D-Limonene warrants awareness among allergy-prone users. It is not a perfect score, but it reflects responsible formulation.
The HumanSafe™ Difference
Most safety tools rate ingredients in isolation — one score regardless of concentration, context, or how the product is used. We assess at actual use concentration.
| Dimension | Other Apps (EWG, Yuka) | HumanSafe™ |
|---|---|---|
| Dose awareness | Same score regardless of concentration | Assessed at actual use concentration in this product |
| Exposure context | Same score for rinse-off and leave-on products | Adjusted for product format and absorption rate |
| Allergens | Binary flag — present or absent | Concentration compared to IFRA/EU safe limits |
| Purchase signal | Score only, no recommendation | Clear verdict + safer alternatives ranked by PSS |
