About

Dithiodiethyl Bis-Dihydroxydimethylbutyramide is a cosmetic ingredient used in product formulations. Its specific function may vary between products. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.

This is a highly specialized dithio-bis-diethyl amide with multiple hydroxyl and dimethyl substituents on the butyramide moiety. The compound has a complex multi-functional structure lacking mainstream toxicological assessment. The presence of a disulfide bond raises potential for skin permeation and systemic absorption concerns. It is not listed in any EU Annex to Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009, indicating no confirmed safety assessment exists for cosmetic use.

Known concerns

  • No EU cosmetics safety assessment available
  • Disulfide bond may enable skin permeation
  • Complex multi-functional structure with unknown dermal toxicity
  • Presumed restricted or prohibited due to lack of data
