Why

Vegan means no animal-derived ingredients: no beeswax, honey, lanolin, carmine, collagen, silk or milk. Some ingredients like glycerin can come from plants or animals, so a vegan claim on the label matters.

We can't tell if Nivea protector solar is vegan. Isopropyl Palmitate, Glyceryl Stearate, C18-38 Alkyl Hydroxystearoyl Stearate and 2 more can be plant or animal derived (palmitates can be plant or animal derived) and the label does not say.

This is not a safety warning. It is a label fact, useful if you avoid this group on purpose.
