Oil-soluble hydroxy acid
1. INCI et CAS
INCI: Salicylic Acid · CAS: 69-72-7
2. Rôle dans la formule
Salicylic acid is restricted by market. This guide uses 0.5% as a cosmetic starting point and does not claim OTC acne treatment, a peel, or a medical indication.
3. Niveaux d'emploi typiques (repère de formulation)
- Rinse-off clarifiers: confirm the market cap for the formula.
- Formulation guidance for leave-on: only inside the destination limit, guide start 0.5%.
Pre-dissolve in a suitable solvent or a hot water phase as the TDS allows. Confirm EU, US and China limits before filing.
4. Sources réglementaires et conformité mondiale
- The CosIng record for Salicylic Acid, where listed, is informational rather than product-specific authorization.
- Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 requires the complete cosmetic containing Salicylic Acid to receive its own safety assessment before the cosmetic is placed on the EU market.
- Check the supplier's technical information for the Salicylic Acid grade and confirm the relevant market filing list.
5. Sécurité et évaluation des risques
Read the recorded level as a cosmetic formulation guide; the listed level does not itself confer drug or OTC status with patch response and finished-product stability still to be verified.
6. Stabilité et conditionnement
Keep bulk supplies closed, cool, and protected from sunlight; if the formula is oxidation-sensitive, an airless or pump format may be considered; confirm final stability and pack compatibility on a representative batch.
7. Formulations d'allégations (à faire / à éviter)
- The recorded cosmetic positioning for Salicylic Acid highlights low-level BHA clarifying.
- The ingredient record does not demonstrate medical outcomes, cure language, or a product certification not supported by the available facts.
- The available details for Salicylic Acid should not be used to substantiate skin whitening, acne care, sweat reduction, sun protection, or hair-growth outcomes.
