It is unclear what specific cosmetic product you are referring to. However, here is some general information on cosmetics and their ingredients:
-
Regulatory Requirements: The U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) has regulations related to cosmetics, including those related to labeling, ingredient declaration, and tamper-resistant packaging. The regulations related to cosmetics are stated at 21 CFR, parts 700 to 740 (21 CFR 700 to 740) .
-
Ingredients: The safety of chemicals used in cosmetics is regulated by the FDA, and manufacturers are required to provide Safety Data Sheets (SDS) for their products. Cosmetic products marketed on a retail basis to consumers must bear a list of ingredients, using their common or usual names. However, trade names are not acceptable.
-
Campaign for Safe Cosmetics: The Campaign for Safe Cosmetics works to eliminate dangerous chemicals linked to adverse health impacts from cosmetics and personal care products. They advocate for stricter regulations and transparency in the industry.

EWG VERIFIED®: The Environmental Working Group (EWG) has a verification program for personal care products that meet their strict standards for ingredient safety and transparency.
It is important to note that the safety of cosmetic products and their ingredients is a complex issue, and there is ongoing debate about the effectiveness of current regulations. Consumers should do their own research and make informed decisions about the products they use.
