Restrictions and Allergens

This is the list provided by Cosmetics Europe detailing allergens and how they should be noted on product labels: Cosmetics Europe 26 Allergens

This list below gives indicative maximum levels of the limited substances in different fragrance materials (essential oils or synthetic materials). These indicative levels should be taken into account when determining the compliance of a fragrance compound/essential oil under its conditions of use. However, if reliable analysis (e.g. GC/MS of specific batch) has shown that the level of the limited substance in a specific fragrance material/essential oil is not the same as the indicative level given here, then the analysed level can be used instead of the indicative level. The list is intended to be as comprehensive as possible but still remains illustrative only and cannot be regarded as exhaustive.

NB: Geranial and neral are isomers of citral and, for the purposes of allergen labelling, “citral” is used.
