The primary hazard classifications relate to environmental toxicity: H400 (very toxic to aquatic life) and H410 (very toxic to aquatic life with long-lasting effects). Agricultural pesticide residues in cosmetic raw materials are regulated in the EU, and substances with this hazard profile are typically restricted.
