Key points to remember :
- Dose and frequency of exposure
The adverse effects of potential PEs are mainly observed at high doses in laboratory studies. In cosmetics, these substances are generally present in low concentrations and applied locally, which limits their absorption by the body. - Variability of effects
The effects of EPs can vary from one individual to another, influenced by factors such as genetics, age and gender. Certain groups, such as children and pregnant women, are more sensitive, prompting recommendations to limit their exposure to certain ingredients. - Strict regulations and controls
In Europe, substances suspected of being EPs are rigorously monitored and often restricted or banned in cosmetics. Bodies such as the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) and the FDA in the USA regularly reassess the safety of these ingredients according to the latest scientific research. - Examples of ingredients to watch out for
Certain parabens, phthalates and chemical UV filters, such as oxybenzone, are frequently cited for their potential endocrine effects. Their use is strictly regulated in many countries.
