Greenveil's read: looks good. Cosmetic safety minor.
- Minor
Why it's rated this way
1 ingredient on this label is flagged. A cosmetic's rating is set by its most serious finding — here, Potassium Hydroxide.
Potassium HydroxideMinor concernAlkali (lye). It is used up in the product: as a pH adjuster it neutralises an acid in the formula, and in soft or liquid soap it turns the oils into soap. The EU caps the alkalinity it may leave (pH 11 for pH-adjuster use); the higher limits, with warnings, are only for hair straighteners, cuticle removers and depilatories.
