Frequently Asked Questions

Is he Moon Type safe for daily use?+

Daily use is possible for most adults without sensitivities, but the Grade C safety rating indicates it is not optimized for sensitive populations. If you have a history of fragrance reactions or skin sensitivity, consider limiting use to 2–3 times per week or performing a 24-hour patch test on inner arm skin first.

Are there any ingredients I should watch out for?+

Dihydro pentamethylindanone has the highest ingredient safety score (ISS 8.5/10) among the listed components, while longifolene is lower (ISS 4.0/10). None are outright banned, but if you have known sensitivities to synthetic musks or woody compounds, consult the full ingredient list or test on skin first.

What does a PSS of 5.9/10 (Grade C) mean?+

The Product Safety Score (PSS) is an independent rating of overall ingredient safety and formulation transparency. Grade C indicates moderate safety—the product is not restricted, but it does not meet premium safety standards. Users should follow standard fragrance precautions: avoid contact with eyes, do not ingest, and discontinue use if irritation occurs.

The HumanSafe™ Difference
