  • Preservative

What it is there to do

  • Preservative

    Keeps the product free of microbial growth in use.

What the rules say

Each line names the rule it comes from. A limit is not a warning.

  • EU · Restricted

    Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009, Annex V

    What it sets out

    Maximum 0.3 % w/w. Packs don't print concentrations and we hold none, so no page here measures a product against it.

What we don't know

  • Where it comes from — plant, mineral, synthetic — isn't recorded.
  • How much of it is used in any particular product. We hold no concentrations at all.

This is information about an ingredient, not medical advice, and not a judgement about any product that contains it. Back to the reference.
