Aminomethylpropanol is a synthetic ingredient that functions as a buffer to adjust the pH of cosmetics and personal care products. In cosmetics and personal care products, aminomethylpropanol is used in the formulation of creams and lotions, hair sprays, wave sets, hair dyes and colors, eye and facial products, and other hair and skin care products. The main function of aminomethylpropanol in these products is to establish and hold the pH. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) includes aminomethylpropanol on its list of indirect food additives as a component of adhesives that are in contact with food. The European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) identifies that “substance causes serious eye irritation, is harmful to aquatic life with long lasting effects and causes skin irritation, causes serious eye damage.” Toxicologically significant concentrations of AMP are unlikely to be achieved in the systemic circulation and/or target tissues in humans as a result of dermal application of products containing aminomethylpropanol. Systemically absorbed dose will be rapidly eliminated from the body with little remaining at the application site.
