In the US, there aren’t really bans on ingredients except things that have been proven to cause harm. I know this is true in the EU too but they also will ban ingredients that “might” cause harm.

Is there a reason why? Those are very very common combinations that I use in many of my products.

I don’t think they have any data.
but IMO they believe ALOEVERA & other ingredients have same properties.

In California, some types of Aloe are listed on Prop 65 which means if you use them you have to put a cancer warning on your label.
