IPBC can be used at a level up to 0.1 % of the formulation in both rinse-off and leave-on products. The only restriction is that IPBC is not to be used in aerosol products.
IPBC as a preservative in both leave-on and rinse-off products at an incorporation rate of up to 0.05%. If IPBC is used in leave-on products at a rate between 0.02 % and 0.05 %. the finished product must carry a label statement that it contains Iodine. Finished leave-on products containing less than 0.02 % do not require the label statement. IPBC cannot be used in oral hygiene or lip care products.
Currently, IPBC cannot be used in cosmetics though it continues to be widely used in household and industrial products. and is working to gain approval for the use of IPBC in personal care products.
