About
Ethyl Tafluprostamide is a cosmetic ingredient used in product formulations. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.
Ethyl tafluprostamide is a synthetic prostaglandin F2α analog amide developed for cosmetic eyelash and brow enhancement products. It acts by stimulating hair follicle activity. There is limited published toxicological data on this ingredient, and it is not specifically listed in EU Cosmetic Regulation Annexes I–VI, placing it in a regulatory grey area. Due to its pharmacological activity and lack of extensive safety testing, it warrants caution in leave-on cosmetic formulations.
