Regulatory evidence across markets

None of the 13 markets tracked here holds an imported rule under the name STEARAMINE OXIDE.

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.

N,N-Dimethyl-1-octadecanamine-N-oxide

On the basis of the available animal and clinical data presented in this report, the CIR Expert Panel concludes that Lauramine Oxide and Stearamine Oxide are safe as cosmetic ingredients for "rinse-off" products under present conditions of use. For use in "leave-on" products, the Expert Panel concludes that Lauramine Oxide should be limited to 3.7% and Stearamine Oxide to 5%. — Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR)
