nonirritant

Won't cause inflammation

Nonirritant describes something that doesn't cause irritation, especially to skin, eyes, or mucous membranes.

The term appears most often on product labels for cosmetics, cleaning supplies, and medical devices: a nonirritant formula safe for sensitive skin.

In industrial contexts, nonirritant chemicals can be handled without protective equipment against skin reactions.
