The European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) has listed a new entry within its Registry of Intentions with proposed Carcinogenic, Mutagenic and Reprotoxic (CMR) classifications. According to Article 15 of the UK and EU Cosmetics Regulations, if a cosmetic ingredient receives a CMR classification, specific safety information must be submitted to, and reviewed by, the authorities to allow the ingredient to continue being used. The objective of this ingredient defence is to secure an Annex III entry for sodium chlorite within the Cosmetics Regulation if it receives the below-proposed CMR classification.
A usage check on this substance was issued a while ago, but more detailed information about the interest on the defence of Cuminaldehyde specifically as constituent of NCS, not as ingredient as such, is needed. This is in order to capture the interest of members as IFRA has a mandate to defend the substance, but only as constituent of NCS. Please find the details below and a request for you to complete a usage check:
- 4-isopropylbenzaldehyde (Cuminaldehyde) (EC / List no: 204-516-9 CAS no: 122-03-2)
- Perfuming
- Scope: Repro 1B – Sweden
- Substance included in group entry. See current https://echa.europa.eu/registry-of-clh-intentions-until-outcome/-/dislist/details/0b0236e1878e53c6
