46 The shelf-life of the products marketed as ”non-preserved” varies from 3 to 24 months after opening, whereas the products marketed as “naturallypreserved” varies from 6 months to 12 months after opening. In some cases, a date is reported instead of the “shelf-life after opening”. This probably means that the cosmetic products have a shelf life below 30 months unopened, as the durability date must be labelled on the cosmetic product if the shelf life is below 30 months unopened according to the Cosmetics Directive.

Marketed as Product type Shelf life Eye cream 11-2010 The shelf-life after opening for the investigated products does not show a clear picture, but some of the products have a shelf-life after opening which is shorter than 12 months. As the “typical” shelf life after opening of a segment of cosmetic products in one cosmetics shop is 12 months, this could indicate that both “non-preserved” and “naturally-preserved” products may have a shorter shelf life than preserved cosmetic products. This statement is, however, not based on a thorough survey, and based on this survey it is not possible to say for certain whether the shelf life of this type of cosmetic products is shorter than “normally” (for products containing preservatives). As described in chapter 3 Self-preserving cosmetics, the growth of microorganisms and thereby the shelf life of the cosmetics is not only dependant on the content of preservatives. Many other factors can influence the shelf life. For example different vegetable oils do themselves have different shelf lives, because the different degree of saturation of the oils. Polyunsaturated oils are more sensitive to oxidation and thereby have a limited shelf life. Therefore, the shelf life of a cosmetic product is a result of the combination of the different ingredients (=the formulation used) in the products. This survey could indicate that both “non-preserved” and “naturallypreserved” products may have a shorter shelf life than preserved cosmetic products, but this aspect has not been investigated thoroughly in this survey. In general, the shelf-life after opening for the investigated products does not show a clear picture. 5.4 Products/ingredients selected for analysis In all four ingredients were chosen as a focus for the chemical analysis and the subsequent risk and health assessment. The choice of ingredients was made in cooperation with the Danish EPA. The four ingredients chosen were: � Limonene � Linalool � Geraniol � Citral These four fragrances are part of the 26 fragrances that must be declared on the cosmetic product if they are present above a specific percentage in the product (0.01% in rinse-off products and 0.001% in leave-on products). These fragrances were chosen for analysis and subsequent risk and health assessment, as they are a part of many different essential oils that are present in the non-preserved or naturally preserved cosmetic products investigated in this survey, and as these substances are considered to be antibacterial at a certain concentration level (Inouye et al., 2001), (Kabara & Orth, 1996). 5.4.1 Content of the fragrances There is a declared content of fragrances (the word “parfum” listed on the product) in 16 of the 89 products, i.e. 18 % of the products. However, 22 products do for some reason not declare a content of perfume even though 47
