Safety Risk Labels

This ingredient has the following documented risks:

Organ Risk: Environment Canada evaluated this ingredient and listed it as expected to be toxic or harmful and as a medium human-health priority. That means it may harm organs (for example liver, kidneys, or lungs) if exposure is repeated or high.
Irritant: The ingredient profile flags contamination concerns with butyl alcohol and notes possible skin, eye, or lung irritation in safety assessments by the Cosmetic Ingredient Review. If products contain that contaminant, they can cause redness, stinging, or breathing irritation, especially on sensitive baby skin.
Banned: Industry safety guidance and product-verification rules place limits on this ingredient and require extra substantiation for use. The Cosmetic Ingredient Review and product-restriction programs set conditions on how it may be used, so it is restricted in some regulatory or verification contexts.
Long-Term Risk: Federal food/regulatory records show this chemical can appear in more than one source (used in food or as an additive), and safety reviews note data gaps and limits in the risk assessment approach. That means repeated, additive exposure over time could raise the chance of long-term health effects.
