Safety of 1,2-Hexanediol, Glycolic Acid, Pro Polymer™ for Lip Products (Ingestion Safety)

Based on the product information available for 1,2-Hexanediol (pentylene glycol), Glycolic Acid, and Pro Polymer™, the descriptions focus on their use and properties in cosmetic formulations for topical application. There is no information provided regarding their safety if ingested.

These ingredients are intended for use in cosmetic products applied to the skin. The previous information about certain preservatives being permitted for use in lip products by the FDA specifically referred to Mild Preserved Eco and NaturePreserve, which implies a level of safety for incidental ingestion from lip application.

However, for 1,2-Hexanediol, Glycolic Acid, and Pro Polymer™, the product descriptions do not provide data or guidance on ingestion safety. Therefore, we cannot confirm their safety if taken internally.
