Less than 1500 of the more than 3000 - 5000 substances used in fragranced products has been safety tested by the fragrance industry. This testing by the industry is usually limited to effects on the skin. Neurological, respiratory, systemic, and long term effects are not generally tested. Most fragranced products that are considered cosmetics have no warning on the label though it is required by law if substances used in the product and the final product has not had its safety substantiated. The lack of this label is false and misleading since the lack of the label indicates the product and the ingredients in it have been adequately tested for safety.
Consumers are mislead into thinking the products are safe for use via all routes of exposure.
In truth there are many materials used in fragrances that can cause skin allergies and contribute to other health problems such as being a trigger for asthma and other respiratory problems. Consumers have a right to know.
