What the listings say

Permitted, with conditions — Iscotrizinol appears on published "allowed" regulatory lists rather than on a restriction list.

Benzoic acid, 4,4-{[6-[[[(1,1-dimethylethyl)amino]carbonyl]phenyl]amino]-1,3-5-triazine-2,4-diyl]diimino}bis-, bis(2-ethylhexyl)ester / Iscotrizinol is listed in Annex VI of the EU Cosmetics Regulation (EC) 1223/2009 (UV filters allowed in cosmetic products).

The score describes this ingredient's chemical identity — its hazard profile from published classifications and regulatory status — not the safety of any product it appears in.
