Johnson & Johnson Statement
We stand by the safety of our products, all of which are extensively tested and well within any FDA guidelines.Recently, several environmental activist groups erroneously claimed that in 1985 the U.S. Food and Drug Administration asked the cosmetics/personal care industry to voluntarily limit 1,4-dioxane to a certain level. However, the FDA has set no limits for 1,4-dioxane in cosmetics and personal care products, and the low levels in some of our products present no risk to consumers.Some of the ingredients in our products may contain 1,4-dioxane as an incidental byproduct at extremely low levels. This trace byproduct is common in the personal care industry, and results from a process that makes products mild for even the most delicate skin. 1,4-dioxane is also a natural component of such food products as vine-ripened tomatoes and tomato products, fresh shrimp, brewed coffee and fried chicken.
The AVEENO® Baby product is well within the Proposition 65 threshold.
