Amid all the breaking news in the United States at any given moment, you might have missed a recent, major development in the way your makeup, skin care, hair care, and more are regulated.

— will be required by beauty companies by the end of 2025. But we might be seeing new headlines about nefarious ingredients in beauty products a whole lot sooner, perhaps in the coming months. While manufacturers certainly aren’t incentivized to run tests that can pick up very low trace levels of carcinogens — levels below what the FDA deems "safe" — Romanowski predicts that independent labs will be conducting more sensitive tests that can detect those trace amounts.

Backing up for a second: Even potentially dangerous ingredients like benzene and mercury can exist at "safe levels," deemed nontoxic by the FDA, in the creams and makeup you use every day. It used to be the case that testing wasn't advanced enough to find these ingredients below those "safe levels." But "analytical chemistry instrumentation continues to get more sensitive," says Romanowski.

Take the benzene example: It's possible this recent wave of recalls was spurred on by unprecedented contamination of aerosol sprays. It's also possible thatwas already in some aerosol sprays, it just wasn’t there at levels high enough to be detected by the old tests. Maybe there weren't benzene recalls before because "nobody was checking for benzene," says Romanowski.

Romanowski thinks all this testing could spur even more beauty industry legislation. To which a lot of people might say, "Great! We need more banned ingredients in the US!" This country's ingredient safety standards are often criticized for lagging behind the EU, which has banned over a thousand more ingredients from consumer goods than we have.
