WHAT IS BMHCA?BMHCA stands for "Butylphenyl Methylpropional," which is an abbreviation used in the chemical industry. This substance is commonly used as a fragrance component in cosmetics and personal care products. It is also known as Lilial. However, its use has been restricted or banned in the European Union and some other countries due to possible health risks. Lilial has been subjected to restrictions due to concerns that it may cause allergic reactions and have negative effects on the reproductive system. From 2022 onwards, its use in cosmetic products has been completely banned in the EU.
