AnonymousOpposeTrade association
Summary: The Personal Care Products Council (PCPC), a trade association representing the cosmetics and personal care industry, opposes the actions requested in Valisure LLC's citizen petition regarding benzene in dry shampoos. They argue that Valisure's testing methods are flawed, that raw material controls are a more appropriate solution than finished product testing, and that a risk assessment approach should be used instead of a flat 2 ppm concentration limit.
The Personal Care Products Council, the national trade association for the cosmetic and personal care industry, is submitting these comments in response to a citizen petition submitted to the FDA by Valisure LLC on October 31, 2022, involving certain dry shampoo products.
