CRUNCHI®

An antimicrobial preservative that slowly releases carcinogenic formaldehyde into a product over time (see Formaldehyde). People may develop a contact allergy to formaldehyde or to the ingredient itself. The American Society of Contact Dermatitis lists 2-bromo-2-nitropropane-1,3-diol as one of the allergens even in concentrations as low as 0.5%. In the presence of amines (such as triethanolamine, diethanolamine, and morpholine) in a product, 2-bromo-2-nitropropane-1,3-diol can form nitrosamines, which can penetrate the skin and increase the risk of cancer. Longer storage times and higher temperatures increase the amount of formaldehyde released from 2-bromo-2-nitropropane-1,3-diol, which can lead to higher risks of health problems.Sources:<a href="http://www.ewg.org/skindeep/ingredient/700019/2-BROMO-2-NITROPROPANE-1%252C3-DIOL_%2528FORMALDEHYDE_RELEASER%2529/" style=" text-decoration: inherit;">http://www.ewg.org/skindeep/ingredient/700019/2-BROMO-2-NITROPROPANE-1%2C3-DIOL_%28FORMALDEHYDE_RELEASER%29/#</a> <a href="http://www.safecosmetics.org/get-the-facts/chemicals-of-concern/formaldehyde/" style=" text-decoration: inherit;">http://www.safecosmetics.org/get-the-facts/chemicals-of-concern/formaldehyde/</a> <a href="https://online.personalcarecouncil.org/ctfa-static/online/lists/cir-pdfs/pr208.pdf" style=" text-decoration: inherit;">https://online.personalcarecouncil.org/ctfa-static/online/lists/cir-pdfs/pr208.pdf</a> <a href="https://www.cancer.org/cancer/cancer-causes/formaldehyde.html" style=" text-decoration: inherit;">https://www.cancer.org/cancer/cancer-causes/formaldehyde.html</a> <a href="https://www.contactderm.org/i4a/pages/index.cfm?pageID=3563" style=" text-decoration: inherit;">https://www.contactderm.org/i4a/pages/index.cfm?pageID=3563</a>
