Water (Aqua Purificata) Purified, Cyclopentasiloxane, Hydrogenated Polyisobutene, Butylene Glycol, PVP/Hexadecene Copolymer, Polyglyceryl-3 Diisostearate, Ethylhexyl Hydroxystearate, Tea-Stearate, PVP/Eicosene Copolymer, Stearic Acid, Talc, Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Oil, Santalum Album (Sandalwood), Tocopherol, Xanthan Gum, Dimethicone, Magnesium Aluminum Silicate, Trimethylsiloxysilicate, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Zinc Stearate, Cetyl Alcohol, Disodium EDTA, Phenoxyethanol, Methylparaben, Propylparaben, Butylparaben  

Answer
Hello Allie,

I don't see anything screaming like an irritant or bad allergen in this list except for the Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate. But beside the sensitivity problem. I wouldn't recommend using this foundation as it contains known cancer-promoting substances: Dimethicone and Methylparaben, Propylparaben, Butylparaben. You don't want to use anything which contains these ingredients as they're suspected to be linked with breast cancer at least.

I hope you find this answer helpful.
Have a beautiful day,
Take good care
