About

Clobetasone is a cosmetic ingredient used in product formulations. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.

Clobetasone is a synthetic fluorinated corticosteroid of the glucocorticoid class. Topical corticosteroids are anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive but carry risks of skin atrophy, telangiectasia, and systemic absorption with prolonged use. EU Regulation 1223/2009 does not include corticosteroids among approved cosmetic substances; they are regulated as medicinal products. Cosmetic use of clobetasone is not permitted.

Known concerns

  • EU Annex II — corticosteroids generally prohibited in cosmetics
  • Skin atrophy with prolonged use
  • Risk of systemic absorption
  • Eye toxicity if applied near eyes
