What changed
Annex III LIST OF SUBSTANCES WHICH COSMETIC PRODUCTS MUST NOT CONTAIN EXCEPT SUBJECT TO THE RESTRICTIONS LAID DOWN, Modified§
Explanation, written by a model and checked against the cited text
Entry 2a for thioglycolic acid and its salts was rewritten to split the product category into four sub-items (a) hair waving or straightening products with general and professional use concentrations, (b) depilatories, (c) other hair rinse-off products, and (d) products intended for eyelash waving, whereas the earlier version organised the same substance under three sub-items (a) hair products, (b) depilatories, and (c) hair rinse-off products without a separate eyelash-waving category.
The conditions-of-use and warnings text accompanying entry 2a was also reworded, adding a reference to sub-item (d) and changing the wording around avoiding eye contact, rinsing eyes, and the labelling instructions distinguishing general use from professional use.
The remainder of the visible Annex III text, including entries 2b through 67 and the introductory notes, is unchanged between the two versions, and both texts are truncated before the entry could be compared further.
