Question
What is the maximum recommended usage percentage for the ingredients `Chili Hot (Vanillyl Butyl Ether)` and `Menthol` when formulating a spray product intended for application on the arms and legs?
Answer
Based on the staff's advice for spraying on arms and legs:
- Chili Hot (Vanillyl Butyl Ether) can be used up to a maximum of 1.0%.
- Menthol can generally be used safely up to 10% on areas like arms and legs, although there is no strict maximum limit from the manufacturer.
It is highly recommended to perform a patch test on a small area of skin before widespread use to check for any irritation.
