Select shampoos and conditioners do contain 0.165% DMDM Hydantoin, to help prevent mold and bacterial growth. This is less than half the allowable limits across the U.S., Canada, and the European Union.
• European Union: maximum limit 0.6%
• Japan: maximum limit 0.3%
• Health Canada: no maximum limit
• FDA United States: no maximum limit
• Cosmetic Ingredient Review of America: maximum limit 0.8%
As we continuously strive to improve all AG products, our Research and Development team is actively working on new formulations which exclude DMDM Hydantoin.
