As many of you know, I am against the use of isothiazolinones after personal experience with having both of my dogs suffer atopic dermatitis (AD) due to a shampoo containing it.
Now, I've had another case, my daughter, in her mid 30s, with scalp irritation and her hair falling out. The symptoms went away after I checked the label on the SEDAL CONDITIONER she was using, and advised her to stop using it. Yes, isothiazolinones again. I had to use a x100 eyepiece to read the label, maybe there's a reason they print it unreadably tiny... they don't want us to read it. I have begun campaigning against this product.
Comments
Here in the US I have several comercial products containing MI and MCI. Some of which are higher-end cosmetics.
Perhaps the efforts should be directed at educating people about these compounds, and the risk to sensitization they pose in some of the population, not turn them against one (of possibly tens of thousands) of the products containing it.
Just my two cents.
I use it with glyceryl caprylate and glycerin (Spectrastatâ„¢ G2-NMB) thinking it is the most gentle preservative i can get.
Although it is very expensive
We use it in every product to help preservative and to rise the pH if necessary.
How chelating effect of these two compared?
