Frequently Asked Questions
Is Orpheon safe for daily use?+
Orpheon has a PSS Grade B rating, indicating moderate safety for consumer use. Daily application is generally acceptable for most people; however, apply to pulse points rather than large body areas to minimize exposure. If you experience irritation, redness, or allergic reactions, discontinue use and consult a dermatologist.
Are there any ingredients I should watch out for?+
Benzyl Salicylate and the octahydronaphthalene derivatives are known fragrance allergens for a small percentage of users. If you have a history of fragrance sensitivity or salicylate intolerance, perform a 24-hour patch test on your inner forearm before regular use. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes.
What does a PSS of 6.8/10 (Grade B) mean?+
The PSS (Product Safety Score) of 6.8/10 places Orpheon in Grade B, representing moderate safety. This means the product has been formulated with generally acceptable ingredient concentrations and safety profiles, but is not in the highest safety tier. Grade B products are suitable for typical consumer use when applied as directed.
