Method: IARC Monographs – List of Classifications; EU Cosmetics Regulation (EC) 1223/2009; our methodology.

Hazard is not risk. An IARC classification says whether a substance can cause cancer under some conditions (e.g. titanium dioxide is classified for inhaled powder), not that a cosmetic containing it is harmful at normal use. EU restrictions set use limits. This page is informational, not medical advice; talk to a dermatologist about your own skin.

Informational only, not medical advice. Data comes from Open Beauty Facts (community-contributed, may be incomplete or outdated). "No watchlist ingredients found" means none of the ingredients on our documented watchlist appear in the listed ingredients; it is not a guarantee of safety. Always read the actual product label.
