Safety Profile
The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) has not conducted a specific safety assessment for ERYTHRONIUM JAPONICUM FLOWER/LEAF/STEM EXTRACT. While direct data for this extract is absent, reports exist of dermatitis from skin contact with bulbs of the broader Erythronium genus in sensitive individuals. This suggests a cautious approach may be warranted, particularly for those with compromised skin barriers or known sensitivities.
