European Union Committee Seeks Comments on Cosmetic Substances

摘要

The European Union's Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety called for comments on four draft opinions on substances used in cosmetic products. The draft opinions, open for comment through May 14, are on the use of the nano-form of titanium dioxide as a UV-filter in spray-on sunscreens, the use of the colorant Basic Blue 99 in hair dyes, the use of water-soluble zinc salts in mouthwashes and toothpastes, and the use of methoxypropylamino cyclohexenylidene ethoxyethylcyanoacetate as a UV-filter in all cosmetic products.
