The conclusions of the assessment of Triphenyl Phosphate, a plasticiser used in cosmetics included in the CoRAP (Community rolling action plan) under the REACH Regulation, have just been published by ECHA on its website. France, the evaluating Member State, has concluded that the substance should have a CLH classification as an endocrine disruptor for the environment and be identified as a SVHC.

At the end of August 2022, the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) published eight proposals for harmonised classification and labelling (CLH) from Sweden. All concerned fragrance ingredients, for classification as reprotoxic substances. Five have now been withdrawn.

The wind has changed. After years of feeding the (illusory?) cult of the quest for eternal youth, the beauty industry is turning to reconciliation with the passing of time. A trend that echoes the concerns of consumers, who are more and more inclined to embrace their wrinkles. Dynvibe, a “social intelligence” agency, has observed the way in which Internet users take hold of the subject of aging well in order to identify their expectations.

How does the general public combine everyday life and the climate crisis? What are their expectations of “responsible” beauty products? To answer these questions, the German Association for Cosmetics, Toiletries, Fragrances and Detergents (IKW) commissioned the market research agency rheingold salon to gain a better understanding of how Germans approach sustainability.

Tinted cream blush, reactive pH, cushion tip, marble texture, 2 in 1… there’s no doubt about it, blush is the star of make-up this spring!
