About these substances

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

Triclosan (CAS 3380-34-5)

Triclosan is a synthetic chemical used as an antimicrobial agent, meaning it kills or stops the growth of bacteria and fungi. You might find it in everyday products like soaps, toothpaste, deodorants, and some plastics or textiles. It's also used as a biocide in certain industrial settings. The European Union's REACH regulation lists triclosan as a Substance of Very High Concern because it is an endocrine disruptor—meaning it can interfere with the body's hormone systems—and because it poses risks to the environment, such as harming aquatic life. Because of these concerns, the EU Cosmetic Regulation already restricts its use in personal care products. This listing helps ensure that companies and consumers are aware of its potential impacts and encourages safer alternatives. For more details, see the EU REACH SVHC Candidate List at https://echa.europa.eu/candidate-list-table. This summary draws on public regulatory data; the linked source is authoritative.

Salicylic acid (developmental, > daily threshold) (CAS 69-72-7)

Salicylic acid is a naturally occurring compound found in plants like willow bark, and it is also made synthetically for use in many everyday products. You might know it as the active ingredient in aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) or as a common ingredient in acne treatments, dandruff shampoos, and skin care products. Since February 2018, California has listed salicylic acid on its Proposition 65 list for developmental toxicity, but only when exposure exceeds a specific daily threshold. This means that at high enough doses, it may pose a risk to fetal development during pregnancy. The regulation does not apply to the low levels typically found in over-the-counter cosmetics or medicines. Instead, it targets products or situations where someone might be exposed to much larger amounts, such as certain industrial uses or high-dose supplements. The listing is based on scientific evidence reviewed by California's Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA). For more details, see the official Proposition 65 list at https://oehha.ca.gov/proposition-65/proposition-65-list. This summary draws on public regulatory data; the linked source is authoritative.
