ARACHIDIC ACID

ARACHIDIC ACID is listed in the European Commission CosIng inventory under the functional categories Cleansing, Surfactant - Emulsifying, Opacifying, Surfactant - Cleansing, with CAS number 506-30-9 and EC number 208-031-3. In the free INCIDB sample it appears on 1 product label, reaching position 21 on Nivea Men Deep Dimension Stick Deodorant. Fulton (1989) grades it 2 on the 0–5 comedogenicity scale; that grade is transcribed as-is and is the only rating source used. INCIDB's rule-derived heuristic flags it as a possible Malassezia (fungal-acne) trigger. That is a rule, not a measurement — treat it as a filter rather than a finding.
