Safety
Safety Profile
The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel has not specifically assessed Juniperus Mexicana Wood Extract Acetylated. However, assessments of several related Juniperus extracts revealed insufficient data to determine their safety in cosmetic formulations. While other juniper forms like Juniperus communis berry oil are GRAS for food, and juniper tar is approved for OTC anorectal products, these classifications do not extend to this specific acetylated wood extract. INCIDecoder indicates a medium irritancy potential for this ingredient.
