ECHA has adopted the updated Community rolling action plan (CoRAP) for 2018-2020 with 108 substances to be evaluated, some of which are used in cosmetics. The Member States have 12 months to evaluate the 21 substances specified for 2018. The aim is to clarify whether these substances pose a risk to people or the environment.

The substances are selected for substance evaluation to clarify the concerns related to their exposure and suspected serious hazard properties (persistent, bioaccumulative and toxic (PBT), carcinogenic, mutagenic and reprotoxic (CMR) or endocrine disruptors in combination with wide dispersive consumer use).
