Safety Profile
The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel has not specifically assessed 1,4-Butanediol Bisdecanoate. While the parent compound, 1,4-Butanediol, is associated with FDA warnings due to its conversion to gamma-hydroxybutyrate (GHB) and potential neurological toxicity upon oral ingestion, these concerns are specific to the diol itself and not directly to this ester. CIR identified insufficient data for 1,4-Butanediol in cosmetics, citing its oral neurological toxicity due to GHB conversion, but did not review this specific bisdecanoate ester.
