1-Methoxy-2-amino-4-(2-hydroxyethylamino)benzene
The CIR Expert Panel concluded that 2-amino-4-hydroxyethylaminoanisole and 2-amino-4-hydroxyethylaminoanisole sulfate are safe for use in oxidative hair dye formulations. Were the free base (2-amino-4-hydroxyethylaminoanisole) to be used in the future, the expectation is that it would be used at concentrations similar to the sulfate salt. The Expert Panel cautions that these ingredients should not be used in hair dye products in which N-nitroso compounds may be formed. — Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR)
