Safety Profile
The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel has not evaluated Sodium Naphthol Sulfonate. Assessments of chemically distinct compounds like Sodium Naphthalenesulfonate (SNS) and Sodium Polynaphthalenesulfonate (SPNS), which were found safe for topical skin application, do not extend to this specific ingredient, leaving its safety profile for cosmetic use largely uncharacterized.
