To-be-labelled allergens

Allergènes "étiquetables"

26 aromatic compounds and fragrance substances, found in particular in essential oils, must be included in the list of ingredients as soon as they are more than 0.01% present in rinse-off products and more than 0.001% in leave-on products. A legal notice, intended to warn and protect people sensitized to these allergenic molecules, whether they are of synthetic or natural origin. Note: this list is currently being revised at European level, and should soon lead to new regulations for these substances.
