Asked by: richaria.beaute On: October 17, 2014 Product Type: Cosmetics

Question

Can distilled water labeled as "dangerous drug" be used for mixing cosmetics? If it is essentially pure water, why is it classified as a "dangerous drug" by the FDA?

Answer

Based on the previous discussion, the distilled water labeled as "dangerous drug" can be used for mixing cosmetics. The "dangerous drug" classification is because it is intended for injection into the body, as regulated by the FDA. However, it is essentially pure water and is safe for use in cosmetic formulations.
