Formulating sunscreens with melatonin - acceptable in EU?
A cosmetic scientist I spoke to mentioned that if you formulate sunscreen product with melatonin as one of the ingredients, the sunscreen would be viewed as a drug in the EU. Is this correct?
I read the SCCS opinion on melatonin and from what I understand it would only be viewed as a drug if it’s formulated in haircare products because it helps with hair growth and also if it’s in medicines used to treat insomnia and other sleep disorders.Your thoughts on this matter would be greatly appreciated!Thank you!
