  Not aware it’s advanced beyond SCCS reco.  Unfortunate that they considered only one side of the risk assessment.

  @PhilGeis does this law show at 10ppm we should warn that this product has formaldehyde or it says we should not use more than 10ppm?
  I couldn’t get the idea

  Think it’s only a recommendation at this time.  I understand, if implemented, it would require for formaldenyde releasers labeling - contains formaldehyde.

  Think thye’ve recommended formaldehyde as an ingredient be placed on prohibited list.

  That’s just my iunderstanding/
