A fatty acid or fatty-acid salt used as an emollient, cleanser, emulsifier or texture agent. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that the assessed fatty acids and salts are safe in current practices when formulated to be non-irritating and non-sensitising. No pregnancy-specific concern was identified for normal topical exposure.

An insoluble mineral or elemental particle used for optical effects, absorbency or cosmetic texture. Meaningful systemic exposure through intact skin is expected to be low. No pregnancy- or reproductive-toxicity signal was identified for normal topical cosmetic use. Particle size, source purity, metal impurities and inhalation of airborne powder remain formulation-specific considerations, and local contact allergy is possible with gold.
