Red 7 Lake (CI 15850)

Flagged in 2

Scout's take

FDA-permitted & SCCS 'not sensitizing', but petroleum/coal-tar-derived, batch-certified for heavy-metal/PAH impurities, NOT approved for the eye area, and EWG-restricted.

More from Scout's analyses

Synthetic petroleum-derived lake dye. Lip colour is partly swallowed, so it is judged like the artificial dyes the food framework penalizes.
