Complete annex dataset
Included scope
Annexes II–VI: prohibited and restricted substances, colourants, preservatives and UV filters.

No annex match only means that these five annexes did not return a match; CosIng identity data and other EU obligations still need review.

Complete verification checklist

  1. Confirm the exact INCI/CAS/EC identity.
  2. Review every matching Annex II–VI row and its conditions.
  3. Check SCCS opinions, CMR/nanomaterial rules and later amendments.
  4. Verify product classification, claims, labelling and responsible-person duties.

Legal meaning: Curated scientific ontology; not a cosmetics permission or prohibition list

FDA Global Substance Registration System

Legal meaning: Identity registry only; UNII availability does not imply FDA review or approval

Cosmetic Ingredient Review safety assessments

Expert Panel conclusions, assessed ingredient groups, use conditions, dates and report documents

Legal meaning: Independent expert review considered by FDA; not a government approval or binding market rule

How to verify an ingredient for this market

  1. Search the ingredient by INCI name, CAS number or EC number and record the exact identity.
  2. Open each official source above and check the current version, product scope, concentration limits and required warnings.
  3. Confirm effective dates and whether an English text is official, reviewed or only contextual.
  4. Treat a missing local match as unknown, never as permission or a safety conclusion.
