About

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

Ethyl Butylacetylaminopropionate is primarily an insect repellent active ingredient rather than a traditional cosmetic ingredient. It carries hazard statements H319 (causes serious eye irritation) and H402 (harmful to aquatic life), which classifies it as a substance requiring careful handling. In the EU, insect repellents that are applied to the skin may fall under cosmetic regulations (EU Regulation 1223/2009) if marketed for skin application, but the H402 aquatic hazard is a significant environmental concern. It is not listed in the EU CosIng database as an approved cosmetic ingredient, indicating it may not be authorized for general cosmetic formulations.

Skin benefits

  • Insect repellent activity when used in relevant product formulations

Known concerns

  • H319 — Causes serious eye irritation
  • H402 — Harmful to aquatic life (ecological concern)
