I looked up the ingredients listed to check for any potential allergens and while I don't see anything that will cause me problems, I thought I should warn people that there are two potential allergens in the product.
"TEA" turns out to be an acronym that stands for triethanolamine which has been shown to be a contact allergen in some people:

And Carbopol turns out to be a brand, not a specific product, but all of the products with the brand name are acrylic polymers. AKA acrylics. If you have an allergy to acrylics, then you should avoid this product as well.
If you don't know if you have an allergy to either, you can try the product but should stop use immediately if you notice any skin irritation from the product.
Obviously you two are fine as well since you've used it with no adverse reaction... I'm just putting the warning out there.
