You can find an overview of all twelve substances in our article on the Cosmetics Regulation 2026\/909<\/a><\/u><\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/div>

What are the maximum limits for benzyl salicylate?<\/h2><\/h2><\/div>

Benzyl salicylate is listed in Annex III under number 75, and the values refer to the ready-to-use preparation.<\/p>\n

\u201cSalicylates\u201d is a collective term for salts and esters of salicylic acid, and the regulation applies only to benzyl salicylate. Ethylhexyl salicylate, a UV filter listed in Annex VI with a maximum concentration of 5%, is not one of the twelve substances covered by Regulation 2026\/909.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

What are the maximum limits for citral?<\/h2><\/h2><\/div>

Citral is listed in Annex III under number 70 and, until now, had to be labeled primarily as a fragrance allergen. The new requirement is an upper limit, which varies depending on the product type.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Product Category<\/th>\nMaximum value<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n

Citral must continue to be listed in the ingredients list if its concentration exceeds 0.001% in products intended for residual use and 0.01% in products intended for rinsing. Regarding the deadlines, January 1, 2027, applies to citral for placing on the market, and July 1, 2028, applies to making it available, while August 1, 2028, applies to the isomers geranial and neral.<\/p>\n<\/div>

What manufacturers should do now<\/h2><\/h2><\/div>

The first step is to contact the fragrance supplier, since the concentrations of individual ingredients are often listed only in their documentation. In formulations containing essential oils or plant extracts\u2014such as lemongrass\u2014citral is also introduced into the product via the raw material, and the total amount in the finished product is the value that must be compared to the maximum limit. If a formulation exceeds this limit, there will only be time for reformulation, a new CPSR, and an updated label if planning begins before the end of the year.<\/p>\n

BAYOOCARE reviews your formulations against the new annexes and updates your documentation to ensure your products remain compliant after the effective dates. For more information about our services, see Compliance for Cosmetic Products<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>

FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions About Benzyl Salicylate and Citral<\/h3><\/h2><\/div>

<\/i><\/i><\/span>Is ethylhexyl salicylate also affected by the regulation?<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>
\n

No, ethylhexyl salicylate is not one of the twelve substances listed in Regulation (EU) 2026\/909. It is a UV filter listed in Annex VI, whereas benzyl salicylate is listed in Annex III.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/i><\/i><\/span>Is benzyl salicylate harmful?<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>
\n

The SCCS considered the substance safe up to the maximum concentrations specified by the industry, and the Commission limits its use to those levels because it sees a potential risk above them. This decision was prompted by the substance’s potential endocrine-disrupting properties.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/i><\/i><\/span>What is citral?<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>
\n

Citral is a fragrance compound found in essential oils such as lemongrass and has previously been regulated as an allergen subject to labeling thresholds. Starting in 2027, maximum limits will be introduced for each product category.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
