And I always use the list too to check if a material is safe or how much I can use of this material. I wonder though, can you for example use oakmoss on a higher doses than their recommendation when you put it on your label? I'm very confused about all these things. I talked about the Ifra and the rules of the EU regulations on the group as well and don't understand it very well. <BR/>I would like it if we could choose if we want for example a perfume containing more oakmoss than the recommendation, is that still possible?Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04288903304921954913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21716727.post-90247558089588723672007-04-02T13:46:00.000-07:002007-04-02T13:46:00.000-07:00At least: IFRA does not prohibit.

EU regulations however are absolutely useless. 0.01% of this or that!<BR/>But I nevertheless label according to EU regulations.... I think it is importantt to give customers a choice and chance to identify potential alergens. I really think this is the key. Those who are affected by alergies must have the possibility to make a decision. <BR/>Fragrant EU neutral and IFRA compatible wishes ;-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21716727.post-62182497685793333282007-04-02T03:09:00.000-07:002007-04-02T03:09:00.000-07:00Dear Andy,Thank you for bringing 'Scent Note' up, ...Dear Andy,<BR/>Thank you for bringing 'Scent Note' up, I just read it. I find it horrible that Ifra restrict or ban materials that cause a little itchy skin to only a vew people. Take 1000 people and you will see that there will always be one who is allergic to something. It's impossible to creat an all allergic free product. <BR/>I understand that Ifra has to ban toxic ingredients and restrict ingredients that cause allergic reactions to most people, but they restrict or ban every POSSIBLE allergen, even when it's causing just only a vew people an itchy skin. Think about how long your label will be when you have to name every possible allergen in your perfume!Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04288903304921954913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21716727.post-28204906061242962102007-04-01T21:33:00.000-07:002007-04-01T21:33:00.000-07:00Dear JennyThank you for this post.

Thus, (phrased perfectly today by Luca Turin in his NZZ Folio Scent Note), people compensate and are supported by the media and politicians. Because it is easy to feed the fear ...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
