Selenium is a naturally occurring element that, in certain forms, can be toxic. In cosmetics, selenium and most of its compounds are banned under EU regulations because of potential health risks. The exception is selenium disulphide, which is allowed only under strict conditions, such as in anti-dandruff shampoos at low concentrations. Selenium is sometimes used in industrial settings or as a dietary supplement, but in personal care products, it is restricted to prevent skin irritation or more serious effects. The EU Cosmetics Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 lists selenium and its compounds in Annex II as prohibited substances, meaning they cannot be added to cosmetic products sold in the EU. This rule helps protect consumers from unnecessary exposure. For more details, see the EU CosIng database at https://ec.europa.eu/growth/tools-databases/cosing/. This summary draws on public regulatory data; the linked source is authoritative.

🔍 What we found about this product
A factual report of what public registries and product databases returned for this EAN. We do not authenticate products or issue safety verdicts — we only report what we found.
Identifier checks
📋 EAN format: the GTIN-13 mod-10 checksum is consistent with the GS1 standard (format check only; does not authenticate the physical product)
📋 GS1 prefix 932 indicates the issuing office in Australia (this is the country where the brand owner registered the EAN; it is not necessarily where the product was manufactured. Source: GS1 country code list)
📋 Brand entries found: no entry for Naturopathica in the Wikidata brand registry (our coverage of Wikidata is partial; absence is not a finding either way)
📋 Listed in 2 of the public product catalogues we check: Open Food Facts, Nudger GTIN dataset (CC-BY 4.0) (catalogue presence only; the listing itself does not authenticate the product)
Registry scans
📋 Recall registry scan returned 0 matches (sources scanned: CPSC, FDA, RAPEX, Health Canada, NHTSA. Coverage gaps exist; we cannot speak to records outside these registries)
📋 Substance database scan returned 55 name matches with H-codes / regulated-substance entries (see substances section. This is a name match against label/ingredient text only; it does not confirm batch presence)
📋 Banned-ingredient scan (EU Cosmetic Annex II) returned 0 matches (source: EU Reg. 1223/2009. Scanned against available label text only)
📋 Certifications listed in our databases: none found (registries scanned: EU Ecolabel, US ENERGY STAR, US EPA Safer Choice. Many legitimate products are not enrolled in these schemes)
📋 Medical device registry: not listed in US FDA GUDID or EU EUDAMED (most consumer products are not medical devices and would not be expected to appear)
