SCHEDULE 2LIST OF SUBSTANCES WHICH COSMETIC PRODUCTS MUST NOT CONTAIN EXCEPT SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS

Regulations 4(3) and 6(1)

In this Schedule, the matters specified in columns 3, 4, 5 and 6 which apply to a particular substance are those set out to the right of its name as mentioned in column 2; and the matters specified in columns 4, 5 and 6 which apply in any particular case are those set out to the right of the matter specified in column 3 which applies in that case. The substance may not be used except for the purposes or contained other than in the types of product specified in column 3. The concentration of the substance in a product may not exceed the limit specified in column 4: where the names of two or more substances are mentioned in a single item as set out in column 2 and a product contains more than one of those substances, the limit specified in column 4 is the limit for all of those substances taken together; and where a product is intended to be mixed with another product in specified proportions before use, the level of concentration shall be calculated by reference to the mixture. Other requirements are specified in column 5. In column 4 of this Schedule, the percentage concentration is measured by reference to mass (m/m) unless a contrary intention appears.

SCHEDULE 3LIST OF COLOURING AGENTS WHICH COSMETIC PRODUCTS MUST NOT CONTAIN EXCEPT SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS AND EXCEPT COLOURING AGENTS INTENDED SOLELY TO COLOUR HAIR

Regulation 4(4)

In this Schedule the colouring agents referred to in regulation 4(4)(a) are–

(i)

those identified in column 1 either by name or by colour index number (the colour index numbers being those specified in the third edition of The Colour Index published in 1971 by the Society of Dyers and Colourists);

(ii)

lakes or salts of these colouring agents which do not use substances prohibited under Annex II or which are excluded under Annex V from the scope of the Directive.

In the case of colouring agents identified by the addition of (*) to the name or colour index number, the insoluble barium, strontium and zirconium lakes, salts and pigments of these colouring agents shall also be permitted. They must pass the test for insolubility which will be determined by the procedure laid down in Article 8 of the Directive.

Colouring agents whose number is preceded by the letter “E” in accordance with the EEC Directive of 23 October 1962 on the approximation of the rules of member States concerning foodstuffs and colouring matter22, as amended,23 and adapted24 must fulfil the purity requirements laid down in those Directives. They continue to be subject to the general criteria set out in Annex III to the 1962 Directive concerning colouring matters where the letter “E” has been deleted therefrom.

PART Icolouring agents listed in annex iv part 1 (formerly annex iii part 2) of the directive25 as colouring agents which cosmetic products must not contain except subject to the restrictions laid down

Field of application

In column 3 of this Schedule, the entry “X” in a sub-column means that the colouring agent must not be used other than as follows–

  • Sub-column 1=Colouring agents allowed in all cosmetic products;

  • Sub-column 2=Colouring agents allowed in all cosmetic products except those intended to be applied in the vicinity of the eyes, in particular eye make-up and eye make-up remover;

  • Sub-column 3=Colouring agents allowed exclusively in cosmetic products except cosmetic products intended to come into contact with the mucous membranes;

SCHEDULE 4LIST OF PRESERVATIVES WHICH COSMETIC PRODUCTS MUST NOT CONTAIN EXCEPT SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS

Regulations 4(5) and 6(1)

In this Schedule, the matters specified in columns 3, 4, 5 and 6 which apply to a particular substance are those set out to the right of its name as mentioned in column 2; and the matters specified in columns 4, 5 and 6 which apply in any particular case are those set out to the right of the matter specified in column 3 which applies in that case. The substance may not be used or contained other than in the types of product specified in column 3. The concentration of the substance, when it is used as a preservative, in a product may not exceed the limit set out in column 4. Where a product is intended to be mixed with another product in specified proportions before use, the level of concentration shall be calculated by reference to the mixture. Other requirements are specified in column 5.

In column 4 of this Schedule, “A” indicates that the concentration of the substance in a product may exceed the limit set out in that column provided that–

(a)

the presence of any excess of the substance in a product over the concentration so set out is not for the primary purpose of inhibiting the development of micro-organisms; and

(b)

the purpose for which any such excess is present in the product is apparent from the labelling of the product.

In this Schedule–

“salts” means salts of the cations sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, ammonium and ethanolamines and of the anions chloride, bromide, sulphate and acetate;

“esters” means esters of methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, isobutyl and phenyl.

In column 4 of this Schedule, the percentage concentration is measured by reference to mass (m/m) unless a contrary intention appears.

All preservative substances containing formaldehyde or any substances named in this Schedule which release formaldehyde must be labelled with the warning “contains formaldehyde” when the concentration of formaldehyde in the final product exceeds 0.05 per cent.
