About these substances

Plain-language summary of each regulated substance found above, drawn from public regulatory data.

Nicotine (CAS 54-11-5)

Nicotine is a chemical found naturally in tobacco plants, and it's also used in some nicotine replacement therapies like patches and gum. It's the substance that makes tobacco products addictive. Under California's Proposition 65, nicotine has been listed since April 1, 1990, because it can cause developmental harm (such as affecting fetal growth), birth defects, and other reproductive toxicity. The listing is based on evidence that nicotine exposure during pregnancy can harm the developing baby, and it may also affect male and female fertility. This doesn't mean that occasional use of nicotine products is automatically dangerous, but it does mean that California requires businesses to warn consumers if they are exposed to significant amounts of nicotine from products like cigarettes, e-cigarettes, or certain medications. The regulation helps people make informed choices about their health. This summary draws on public regulatory data; the linked source is authoritative.

Nicotine and its salts (CAS 54-11-5)

Nicotine is a natural alkaloid found in tobacco plants, best known as the addictive substance in cigarettes. In cosmetics, nicotine and its salts were once used in some anti-aging or hair-growth products because they can temporarily increase blood flow to the skin. However, the European Union bans nicotine and its salts from all cosmetic products under Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009, Annex II. This ban exists because nicotine is highly toxic if absorbed through the skin or accidentally ingested, and it poses serious health risks, including addiction and poisoning. The EU Cosmetics Regulation considers it unsafe for use in any cosmetic formulation, even in tiny amounts. You won't find nicotine listed in ingredients on cosmetic labels sold in the EU.
