Understanding Isoeugenol's Allergen Status and Safety in Cosmetic Products
In regions like Europe, Isoeugenol is listed among 'allergenic' substances. The EU Cosmetics Regulation mandates that its presence in leave-on products exceeding 0.001% and in rinse-off products exceeding 0.01% must be declared on ingredient lists. This transparency allows consumers to make informed choices, particularly those with known sensitivities.
The International Fragrance Association (IFRA) has established standards that restrict the use of Isoeugenol in fragrance formulations to mitigate the risk of dermal sensitization. These restrictions vary depending on the product category, such as lotions, creams, or fine fragrances. Adhering to these IFRA standards is crucial for ensuring the safety of cosmetic products. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. is committed to providing Isoeugenol that complies with these regulatory guidelines, supporting our clients in their formulation development.
The safety of Isoeugenol has been extensively evaluated by expert panels, including REXPAN and JECFA. While generally recognized as safe for flavoring purposes, its potential for skin sensitization in fragrance applications means that responsible formulation is key. Consumers seeking products containing Isoeugenol should always check ingredient labels. For manufacturers, working with a supplier like NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. ensures access to Isoeugenol that meets quality and regulatory requirements, facilitating the creation of safe and appealing cosmetic products.
