    Finding shown, score not counted — partial label

    • EU Harmonised Classification (CLP Annex VI) flagged an ingredient
    • IARC Monographs flagged an ingredient
    • Health Canada Ingredient Hotlist flagged an ingredient

    This finding stands: the ingredient it names really is on the list we hold. Its 0-100 score does not count toward the pillar, because we only hold part of this label, and a partial list can only ever score too generously.

      What these ingredient tags mean (3)

      These describe what an ingredient is, not whether it is a problem. The stance marks above are the ratings; these are not.

      • fragrance materialBENZYL ALCOHOL

        • BENZYL ALCOHOL: Used both as a fragrance component and as a preservative; the EU names it either way. EU Regulation (EC) 1223/2009, Annex III entry 45: a fragrance substance whose presence must be indicated in the list of ingredients above 0,001% in leave-on and 0,01% in rinse-off products, because of established contact-allergy risk. That entry carries transition footnote (38), which is footnote (37) plus a condition: stock that does not comply may still be made available until 31 July 2028 only "provided that they comply with the restrictions applicable on 15 August 2023", and only if it was lawfully placed on the Union market before the 31 July 2026 cut-off. Entry 45 covers its non-preservative use; it is separately an allowed preservative at Annex V entry 34.
