Given the incomplete information made available by companies and the government, EWG provides additional information on personal care product ingredients from the published scientific literature. This chart indicates that research studies have found that exposure to one or more ingredients in products by this company -- not the products themselves -- caused the indicated health effect(s) in the studies reviewed by Skin Deep researchers. Actual health risks, if any, will vary based on the level of exposure to the ingredient and individual susceptibility -- information not available in Skin Deep.
