The Great Ingredient Cover-Up: Why Brands Hide What’s Inside

Lens cleaner ingredients are often masked behind vague labels like “fragrance” or “surfactants”—but what do those words really mean? If you’ve ever turned a bottle around and struggled to understand what you’re spraying on your glasses, you’re not alone. Many popular brands rely on confusing or overly scientific terms to hide the true contents. It’s a tactic that avoids scrutiny while potentially exposing your eyes—and your family—to harsh chemicals, allergens, or even ingredients that can degrade lens coatings over time.

Many of these hidden ingredients include:

  • 🧪 Respiratory irritants like ammonia compounds
  • Unregulated fragrances that may contain hormone disruptors
  • 🧫 Cheap chemical fillers that cause surface damage over time

At Clareex, we believe you deserve better. We show every ingredient, clearly. Because transparency shouldn’t be optional—it should be the standard.

The Face-Off: A Typical Cleaning Spray vs. Clareex

Not all cleaning sprays are created with your safety in mind. We picked a widely sold multi-surface cleaner from a supermarket shelf and placed it next to Clareex. When we compared their lens cleaner ingredients, the difference was instantly clear—one relied on vague chemical blends, while the other used a safer, streak-free formula designed for delicate surfaces like glasses and screens.

Typical Spray Label Includes:

  • Ethanolamine – A harsh solvent known to irritate eyes and lungs
  • Quaternary Ammonium Compounds (Quats) – Registered pesticides used for disinfection
  • “Fresh Scent” Fragrance – A vague term that may hide hormone-disrupting chemicals

Clareex Label Includes:

  • Aqua (Purified Water) – Safe, clean base
  • Decyl Glucoside – A plant-derived cleanser from coconut and corn
  • Citric Acid – Natural descaler from citrus fruits
  • Essential Oils – Light natural scent with no synthetics

Which would you trust around your glasses, screens, or a baby’s high chair?

Clareex is clear, simple, and made with your family in mind.

Independent Lab Results – The Proof Is in the Purity

We didn’t stop at ingredient transparency. To truly understand the safety and performance of lens cleaner ingredients, we went a step further—we sent Clareex to a certified independent lab right here in the UK. The results backed what we already believed: safe can also be powerful.

The results came back crystal clear:

  • No Alcohol
  • No Ammonia
  • No Phosphates
  • No Harsh Solvents

What the lab confirmed was exactly what we promised—our formula is pH-balanced, skin-safe, and free from aggressive chemicals. This isn’t just marketing talk. It’s verified by science.That means Clareex can safely clean:

  • 👓 Glasses with delicate coatings
  • 💻 Touchscreens and tablets
  • 🧸 Baby toys and high chairs
  • 🐾 Pet areas without harsh residue

When we say Clareex is gentle, we back it up—with real lab data.

The Gentle Power of Plant-Derived Ingredients

Clareex is powered by nature—not by harsh industrial chemicals. Instead of synthetic detergents and petroleum-based ingredients, we use Decyl Glucoside, a mild, plant-based cleanser derived from corn and coconuts.

It’s:

  • 🌿 Biodegradable and eco-safe
  • 🤲 Gentle on sensitive skin
  • 💪 Strong enough to cut through grease, smudges, and oily residue

We pair it with Citric Acid, a natural descaler derived from citrus fruits, to break down mineral deposits and boost cleaning performance. By carefully selecting our lens cleaner ingredients, we ensure effective results without damaging delicate surfaces or protective coatings

According to All About Vision, harsh sprays with alcohol, ammonia, or unknown solvents can erode protective coatings on lenses, causing fogging, streaks, or scratches over time. Safe, coating-friendly sprays—like Clareex—help preserve clarity without risking damage.

This powerful duo delivers a clean that’s:

  • ✔️ Safe for kids, pets, and allergy sufferers
  • ✔️ Tough on grime, kind to your home
  • ✔️ Free from unnecessary chemicals and artificial boosters

With Clareex, plant power isn’t just a nice idea. It’s the core of every bottle.

How We Formulated Clareex

Creating Clareex wasn’t about cutting corners. It was about setting new standards. Our journey began with a simple but powerful question: “What would a truly safe, effective cleaner look like if it were made for our own families?” That question led us to obsess over every detail—from packaging to performance to the lens cleaner ingredients themselves.

So we rolled up our sleeves and got to work — right here in the UK.

Over 12 months, we collaborated with formulation experts to test and refine hundreds of natural ingredient blends. Every version was reviewed not just for how well it cleaned, but for:

  • 🧪 Skin compatibility
  • 🐾 Pet safety
  • 💧 Surface protection
  • 🌱 Environmental impact

We refused to add any ingredient we wouldn’t use in our own homes.

By formulating and bottling Clareex locally, we have total control over our quality, sourcing, and safety standards—every single bottle meets our strictest criteria before it reaches your hands.
