Product tested positive for presence of 1.4-Dioxane.
1,4-Dioxane is a chemical that shows up as a by-product of manufacturing foaming agents in personal care products. 1,4-Dioxane will not be mentioned on the ingredient list of most products as it is an accidental by-product of the ethoxylation process for deodorants, shampoos, toothpastes and mouthwashes. In high doses, 1,4-Dioxane is a probable human carcinogen, a known eye and respiratory tract irritant, and is suspected of causing damage to the central nervous system, liver and kidneys. 1,4-Dioxane can be eliminated from personal care products by changing manufacturing processes.
