Abstract
The Cosmetic Ingredient Review Expert Panel assessed the safety of 47 polyethylene glycols (PEGs) cocamine and related ingredients, which are reported to function mostly as surfactants and antistatic agents. The Panel reviewed the relevant data and developed a framework to satisfy previously identified data deficiencies for this group of materials as well as extend the scope of related materials covered by the analysis. The irritation potential of these ingredients is consistent with the surface active properties that are characteristic of surfactants. The Panel concluded that the PEGs cocamine and related ingredients were safe as ingredients in cosmetic formulations in the current practices of use and concentration when formulated to be nonirritating.
