The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR), Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (SCCS), and U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) have not specifically assessed ETHYLHEXETH-3 CARBOXYLIC ACID for safety in cosmetic applications. While direct safety data for this specific compound is absent, safety data sheets for *other* compounds containing the ethylhexyl moiety (e.g., ethylhexylphosphonic acid, ethylhexyl acetate, phthalic acid mono-2-ethylhexyl ester) have indicated a potential for skin and eye irritation. Therefore, without specific review, its sensitization potential is undetermined.
