fragrance material specificationFor applications on areas of the skin exposed to sunlight, excluding bath preparations, soaps and other wash-off products, limit to 10% in the finished cosmetic product. Based on the phototoxic potential and on the observed no-effect level of approximately 2 mg/cm2 of the hairless mouse (Food and Chemical Toxicology 17, 273 (1979)). The material has been identified for having the potential of forming nitrosamines in nitrosating systems. Downstream users therefore have to be notified of the presence of the material and its potential to be able to consider adequate protective measures.
