MODIFIED +592 −60 Annex V LIST OF PRESERVATIVES ALLOWED IN COSMETIC PRODUCTS§
applies from: unchanged
Sources disagree — the text comparison and the EU's own amendment metadata found this change; the amending act's instructions do not mention it. All are shown; none is overruled.
The preamble gains two added notes stating that Methylisothiazolinone entry 57 and the Methylchloroisothiazolinone/Methylisothiazolinone mixture entry 39 are mutually exclusive, meaning the mixture cannot be used in the same product as Methylisothiazolinone alone.
Entry 39 itself changes its restriction column from an unrestricted maximum concentration figure to one limited specifically to rinse-off products, and the concentration figure is now enclosed in parentheses at the end of the value.
