Scientific Analyst and Writer Date: August 18, 2017 Subject: Safety Assessment of Monoalkylglycol Dialkyl Acid Esters as Used in Cosmetics Attached is the Draft Final Report of Monoalkylglycol Dialkyl Acid Esters as used in cosmetics. [magdae092017Rep] These ingredients are structurally related to each other as alkyl esters of monoalkyl diols that vary by type of diol and lengths of the fatty acid residues. In June 2017, the Panel concluded that 25 of the 28 ingredients are safe as used in cosmetics. The Panel also concluded that the data on 3 of the 28 ingredients are insufficient to come to a conclusion of safety. The data needs, as described in the December 2016
