applies from: unchanged
Sources disagree about what is listed, not about the text — 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.
A new footnote line stating a cross-reference to Annex V, entry No 44 for use as a preservative has been added to the list of footnotes at the start of the Annex.
The remainder of the visible table entries in the Annex are unchanged between the two versions.
Both texts are truncated before reaching their end, so any further differences beyond the shown portion cannot be described.

MODIFIED +554 −159 Annex V LIST OF PRESERVATIVES ALLOWED IN COSMETIC PRODUCTS§
applies from: unchanged
Sources disagree about what is listed, not about the text — 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 now includes two additional footnote lines referencing Annex III entries No 287 and No 286, which were not present before.
A new entry, reference number 59, has been added for citric acid and silver citrate, with its CAS/EC identifiers, a maximum concentration of 0,2 % (corresponding to 0,0024 % of silver), and a restriction against use in oral products and eye products.
The formatting of the row for reference number 44 (alkyl C12-22 trimethyl ammonium bromide and chloride) has changed, listing each substance name alongside its own CAS and EC number in a rearranged layout rather than as grouped lists.

MODIFIED +305 −0 Annex VI LIST OF UV FILTERS ALLOWED IN COSMETIC PRODUCTS§
applies from: unchanged
Sources disagree about what is listed, not about the text — 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 updated table adds a new entry, numbered 29, for the substance identified as 1,3,5-Triazine, 2,4,6-tris[1,1'-biphenyl]-4-yl-, also referred to by the common names Tris-biphenyl triazine and Tris-biphenyl triazine (nano), with CAS number 31274-51-8 and a maximum concentration of 10%.
This new entry carries conditions stating it is not to be used in sprays and that only nanomaterials meeting specified characteristics, including a median primary particle size greater than 80 nm, purity of at least 98%, and being uncoated, are allowed.
All other entries and wording in the list, as they appeared in the earlier version, remain unchanged.
