Refusal D06 · Documented decision · Redundancy review

Meadowfoam was cut

Its job was already covered. Keeping it would have occupied a line on the label without adding enough work.

Formulation decision

The refusal

A line on the ingredient list is not free. If the role is covered, the extra name is noise.

Reason
Jojoba, prickly pear tocopherols, tocopherol and gamma-oryzanol already carried the stability role.
Cost
We made the ingredient story less crowded.
What replaced it
Nothing. Existing materials already covered the role.
Present status
