ISOPROPYLCYCLOHEXENE-CARBOXYLIC ACID.

Insufficient Data CAS 71298-42-5 / PERFUMING

Isopropylcyclohexene-carboxylic Acid is an organic compound for which specific skincare literature and cosmetic industry recognition are exceedingly scarce. The available research data predominantly pertains to its saturated analog, 4-Isopropylcyclohexanecarboxylic Acid (CAS 7077-05-6 or 62067-45-2), with direct information regarding the 'cyclohexene' form's role in cosmetic applications being absent.

Our Assessment

Verdict

Insufficient Data

Due to a critical lack of specific research on Isopropylcyclohexene-carboxylic Acid in a skincare context and strong indications of high irritancy from a structurally analogous compound, its inclusion in cosmetic formulations is not recommended without comprehensive, targeted safety and efficacy testing.
