Abstract
The Expert Panel for Cosmetic Ingredient Safety (Panel) assessed the safety of 8 glycerin ethoxylates, as used in cosmetic formulations. All of these ingredients are reported to function in cosmetics as skin-conditioning agents, and most are also reported to function as viscosity-decreasing agents. The Panel reviewed relevant data relating to the safety of these ingredients. The Panel concluded that these ingredients are safe in cosmetics in the present practices of use and concentration as described in this safety assessment when formulated to be non-irritating.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Toxicology publishes timely, peer-reviewed papers on current topics important to toxicologists. Six bi-monthly issues cover a wide range of topics, including contemporary issues in toxicology, safety assessments, novel approaches to toxicological testing, mechanisms of toxicity, biomarkers, and risk assessment. The Journal also publishes invited reviews on contemporary topics, and features articles based on symposia. In addition, supplemental issues are routinely published on various special topics, including three supplements devoted to contributions from the Cosmetic Review Expert Panel.
