    Very good oil, but contains Cyclopentasiloxane

    Got this hair oil from a friend who bought it here at Lyko. It's unfortunate that it contains cyclopentasiloxane; European authorities have assessed that the substance is persistent, can accumulate in living organisms, and is toxic to aquatic life. Additionally, the substance has been classified in the EU as reproductive toxic. Therefore, I will not continue using the oil.

    Contains Cyclomethicone

    Decent oil, but strange that Maria Nila chooses to use Cyclomethicone in their products. I think of Maria Nila as a Swedish, sustainable brand. Cyclomethicone is hard to break down in nature and some are regulated within the EU. Since there are many good alternatives without these silicones, I will choose those instead.

      Hejsan Karolin 👋😊 Thank you for sharing your thoughts! 💚 Websites that make this type of assessments often base them solely on the ingredient list and flag substances based on theoretical risks. However, they do not take into account the concentrations in which the ingredients are used or how the finished product is composed, which is an important difference. All Maria Nila products undergo a thorough safety assessment according to the EU Cosmetics Regulation, where the entire product formulation, usage, dosage, and available scientific data are considered. Substances sometimes described as "suspected endocrine disruptors" are just suspected, not proven endocrine disruptors, and may only be used if they are assessed as safe in the amounts present in the product. Maria Nila always works to ensure their products are safe, reliable to use, and comply with all applicable legal requirements 🌟

    Contains Cyclotetrasiloxane

    I was so disappointed when I saw that the product contains the ingredient Cyclotetrasiloxane. European authorities have assessed that the substance is persistent, can accumulate in living organisms, and is toxic to aquatic life. Additionally, the substance has been classified in the EU as reproductive toxic... No thanks.

      Thanks, nice to hear that you take it seriously in your assortment work. Unfortunately, I see these ingredients in several products, I think the companies that develop the products should take responsibility! Even brands that are perceived as sustainable...
