About
2-furyl Methyl Ketone is a cosmetic ingredient used in product formulations. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.
This furyl-containing ketone is used as a fragrance ingredient with no EU cosmetic restriction entries. It has been evaluated by RIFM showing adequate safety margins at current exposure levels. While furan derivatives can present hepatic metabolic concerns at high systemic doses, topical cosmetic application results in negligible systemic exposure making it safe for use in fragrance compounds within IFRA limits.
Known concerns
