Regulatory evidence across markets

None of the 13 markets tracked here holds an imported rule under the name RICINOLEAMIDE DEA.

That is a statement about this inventory, not about the law: no imported rule is not evidence that a substance is permitted. A rule may exist under a different name, under a CAS or EC number this glossary entry does not carry, or in a dataset not yet imported.

Ricinoleic diethanolamide

The CIR Expert Panel concluded that the following 33 diethanolamides are safe in the present practices of use and concentration described in this safety assessment when formulated to be non-irritating and when the levels of free diethanolamine in the diethanolamides do not exceed the present practices of use and concentration of diethanolamine itself. The Expert Panel cautions that ingredients should not be used in cosmetic products in which N-nitroso compounds can be formed...Ricinoleamide DEA... — Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR)
