BCPP’s Campaign for Safe Cosmetics’ Red List is a resource for businesses to assess the safety of the ingredients in the personal care products they make and sell. 

Adopting and making a list of prohibited (or “do not use”) substances publicly available helps companies and consumers alike by advancing transparency, increasing customer trust, and guiding safer product formulations. It also establishes guidelines for suppliers of fragrance, raw materials, and finished products to ensure these entities avoid the use of chemicals the company has pledged to eliminate.
