Patch testing has been done with tissue treated with the CP-soft 94 lotion giving the tissue producer the right to make a claim that the product has been dermatologically tested, besides claiming Aloe and vitamin E content.

The results of patch testing also depend on the tissue paper properties and other ingredients contents, as well as the lotion application system.
