SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Introduction

    In a notice published in the Federal Register of March 7, 2018 (83 
FR 9715), we announced that we filed a color additive petition (CAP 
8C0312) submitted by GW Cosmetics GmbH (GW), c/o EAS Consulting Group, 
LLC, 1700 Diagonal Rd., Suite 750, Alexandria, VA 22314. The petition 
and its supporting documents proposed to amend the color additive 
regulations in part 73 (21 CFR part 73), Listing of Color Additives 
Exempt from Certification, to provide for the safe use of silver 
nitrate as a color additive, at a level of up to 4 percent by weight in 
the final product, in professional-use only cosmetics to color eyebrows 
and eyelashes in persons age 16 and older.
    Silver nitrate is a highly purified inorganic compound obtained as 
the recrystallized precipitate from the concentrated reaction mixture 
of silver and excess nitric acid at elevated temperatures, followed by 
drying the decanted, filtered, and washed crystals. Silver nitrate has 
the chemical formula AgNO3. Although silver nitrate is 
colorless, when it comes into contact with argentaffin, the melanin-
rich protein filaments in the hair, it is reduced to black-brown 
metallic silver, which remains in the filaments (Ref. 1). GW formulates 
the silver nitrate into a viscous gel, which limits migration of the 
gel components into the eye during and after the application procedure, 
thereby minimizing potential extraneous staining or irritation.

II. Safety Evaluation

    Under section 721(b)(4) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act 
(21 U.S.C. 379e(b)(4)), a color additive cannot be listed for a 
proposed use unless the data and information available to FDA establish 
that the color additive is safe for that use. Our color additive 
regulations in Sec.  70.3(i) (21 CFR 70.3(i)) define ``safe'' to mean 
that there is convincing evidence establishing with reasonable 
certainty that no harm will result from the intended use of the color 
additive. As part of our safety evaluation to establish with reasonable 
certainty that a color additive is not harmful under its intended 
conditions of use, we consider the color additive's manufacturing and 
stability; the projected human exposure to the color additive and any 
impurities resulting from the petitioned use of the color additive; the 
additive's toxicological data; and other relevant information (such as 
published literature) available to us.

A. Estimated Dermal Exposure

    To support the safety of the intended use of silver nitrate, GW 
provided estimates of the systemic exposure to silver from the 
petitioned use of silver nitrate using various published dermal 
absorption values. However, as we explain in a separate memorandum 
(Ref. 2), we consider the most comprehensive measure of skin 
penetration of silver to come from a recent published mass

[[Page 55496]]

balance percutaneous penetration study that determined the distribution 
of silver penetrating the different layers of human skin (Ref. 3). 
Therefore, we used these published dermal absorption values, expressed 
as a dermal absorption percentage of the amount of silver applied, and 
assumptions made in GW's exposure estimate, to estimate that the dermal 
exposure to silver from the intended use of silver nitrate would be 
0.15 micrograms ([micro]g) silver/person (p)/day (d) per application. 
Since the exposure to silver could also be affected by the duration of 
the silver nitrate's contact with the skin at the application site, we 
further refined the exposure based on an exaggerated upper-bound 
application time of 3 minutes (Ref. 2). Thus, the maximum estimated 
dermal exposure to silver from the intended use of silver nitrate to 
color eyebrows and eyelashes is estimated to be 0.3 nanograms (ng)/p/d 
per application and exposure to silver nitrate is estimated to be 0.5 
ng/p/d per application (Ref. 2).

B. Acceptable Intake Level for Silver

    In the evaluation of the safe use of an ingredient or substance 
that can be absorbed systemically (e.g., a color additive for use in a 
cosmetic), we consider overall probable exposure (Ref. 4). We 
calculated the oral cumulative estimated daily intake (CEDI) of silver 
to be 72 [micro]g/p/d in our previous evaluations (Ref. 5). The 
conservative estimate of systemic exposure to silver from its color 
additive use in a high-viscosity gel formulation applied to eyebrows 
and eyelashes (0.3 ng/p/d per application) is approximately 0.0004 
percent of the CEDI (Ref. 4). However, the systemic exposure to silver 
is likely to be far less than the estimate of 0.3 ng/p/d per 
application due to three default factors and assumptions used in that 
estimate. First, a dermal retention factor of 0.1 (10 percent) for a 
``leave-on'' (i.e., not intended to be rinsed off) product was used, 
although excess gel is intended to be removed as directed; second, a 20 
percent skin ``reach'' factor (i.e., 20 percent of the applied silver 
nitrate gel is in contact with the skin) was used, though this number 
is likely much less, provided the gel is thoroughly removed from the 
eyebrows or eyelashes as directed; and third, a 1 in 10 day use factor 
was used, which is likely to be conservative when considering exposure 
over a lifetime. For example, GW notes that the coloring effects should 
last up to 6 weeks. Therefore, if an individual decreases their use 
from once every 10 days to once every 2 weeks, there would be a 30 
percent decrease in the exposure to silver. Furthermore, silver binds 
tightly to protein and would not be expected to transfer from the 
protein in the hair follicles (Ref. 4).
    Considering the very low percentage (0.0004 percent) of the CEDI 
represented by our estimated systemic exposure from the intended use of 
silver nitrate as a color additive for dyeing eyebrows and eyelashes, 
and the likelihood that probable systemic exposure to silver is orders 
of magnitude lower than the 0.3 ng/p/d per application estimate, we 
conclude that the exposure to silver from the petitioned intended use 
is negligible, and it does not impact the CEDI of silver (Ref. 4).

C. Toxicological Considerations

    To establish that silver nitrate is safe for use as a color 
additive to color eyebrows and eyelashes, GW provided data from two in 
vitro ocular irritation assays conducted with the proposed silver 
nitrate gel. Both of these in vitro studies, using colorimetric 
measurements as predictors of ocular irritancy, indicate that the 
silver nitrate gel product contains severe eye irritating 
ingredient(s). However, the color of this product interferes with 
colorimetric measurement portion of these studies, limiting the utility 
of these studies to non-colorimetric dependent portions of the 
assessment. Colorimetric results cannot be used to determine the ocular 
irritancy of a colorant such as silver nitrate; therefore, the assays 
provided only limited value to the current safety assessment. 
Nevertheless, the color of silver nitrate does not affect the 
histological assessment portion included in one of the in vitro 
studies. The histopathological results from one in vitro assay 
performed on bovine corneas treated with the silver nitrate gel did not 
reveal any significant physical effects or potential for damage, even 
following a 10-minute continuous exposure with full immersion (Refs. 5 
and 6). In comparison, GW's proposed upper-bound application time of 
the silver nitrate gel is only 3 minutes. Additionally, the viscosity 
of the silver nitrate gel formulation limits entry into the eye during 
and after application to eyelashes. The ocular exposure to silver 
nitrate would be incidental and would initiate ocular tearing, which 
would dilute the silver nitrate concentration (Ref. 6). Additionally, 
we are requiring the instruction ``Rinse eyes immediately if product 
comes into contact with them'' on the label of cosmetic products 
containing this color additive. We expect this instruction will further 
minimize the chances of potential harm. Therefore, we expect no 
permanent ocular damage (Ref. 6).
    GW also submitted results from a single-application, intended-use 
study in human subjects. The study included a pretreatment step with a 
preparation gel not containing silver nitrate to open hair cuticles 
prior to application of GW's silver nitrate gel to both eyebrows and 
eyelashes. During and after the study, only two adverse effects were 
identified in a limited number of users, which included burning 
sensations in the eyes (most occurrences were ``slight'' in degree and 
lasted less than 1 minute after the removal of the product, as self-
reported by the study subjects) and skin staining primarily beneath the 
eyebrows (which was infrequent). We also found no clinically 
significant findings related to the eye (Ref. 7), which is consistent 
with the corneal histopathology findings. Based on these results, we 
conclude that potential ocular irritancy (i.e., burning sensations) and 
skin staining present minimal risks to safety. Furthermore, we expect 
they will be mitigated by statements required to be on the label of a 
cosmetic product containing silver nitrate. See 21 CFR 73.2550(d)(2).
    This final rule includes an age use limitation to help ensure that 
professionals apply silver nitrate cosmetics only to individuals with 
fully mature facial size and structural development. The human eye and 
associated structures generally reach full adult size and structural 
development by 12 years of age. Therefore, limiting the age use to 16 
years and older provides a safety margin for those few individuals 
whose facial size and structures might not have fully developed by age 
12 (Ref. 7).
    This final rule includes a restriction on distribution or direct 
sale to consumers and a professional-use only limitation to increase 
the likelihood that professionals who are trained in and knowledgeable 
about applying cosmetics will apply the silver nitrate product. 
``Professional'' in this rule means an individual who, as part of an 
occupation, is permitted by the jurisdiction in which the individual 
practices to apply cosmetics for dyeing eyebrows and eyelashes.
    This final rule includes a limited application time to limit the 
amount of any potential systemic absorption of the silver nitrate. 
Silver nitrate absorption in the skin is time dependent; therefore, 
limiting the skin contact time will result in a negligible level of 
systemic absorption. We did not identify any evidence suggesting that 
GW's intended conditions of use of silver nitrate are of toxicological 
concern (Ref. 6).
    Based on the totality of the safety data and our conclusion that 
the systemic

[[Page 55497]]

exposure to silver nitrate under the conditions of use is negligible, 
we conclude that there is a reasonable certainty of no harm from the 
intended use of silver nitrate in professional-use only cosmetics to 
color eyebrows and eyelashes of persons age 16 and older at a level of 
up to 4 percent by weight in the final product. To mitigate the risk of 
adverse effects from the use of silver nitrate in these cosmetic 
products, the labeling of the cosmetic product must include statements 
about the potential ocular irritancy and skin staining, an age use 
limitation, professional-use only designation, and limited application 
time.

III. Response to Comment

    We received two comments in response to our filing of the color 
additive petition. One comment, however, did not address silver nitrate 
or color additives. The other comment claimed that the assumption that 
only trained beauticians or cosmetologists will be applying this 
product to consumers poses public health concerns because States have 
their own requirements regarding the licensure of makeup artists. The 
comment also stated that applying this product to the eyes and the 
surrounding area poses serious health concerns. The comment claimed 
that silver nitrate is considered highly toxic and that the gel 
containing the silver nitrate will travel down the hair shaft directly 
onto the skin and into the eye.
    Regarding the professional-use only status of the product, we 
acknowledge that FDA does not regulate the professional practice of 
applying those cosmetics to consumers. This final rule includes a 
professional-use only limitation, along with a restriction on 
distribution or direct sale to consumers, to increase the likelihood 
that professionals who are trained in and knowledgeable about applying 
cosmetics will apply the silver nitrate product. As explained above, we 
reviewed data and information to establish that silver nitrate when 
applied as a gel under the conditions described herein is safe for its 
intended use. As demonstrated in the testing conditions that were 
described in the submitted petition, the silver nitrate gel product, 
when applied as intended, was not toxic and did not result in ocular 
damage. In this case, the intended use of silver nitrate is in specific 
professional-use only cosmetics, and we have determined that this 
intended use is safe.
    Regarding the safety of applying this product to the eyes and the 
surrounding areas, we have determined, as explained in the discussion 
of our safety evaluation, that the intended use of silver nitrate as a 
color additive in certain cosmetic products is safe.

IV. Conclusion

    FDA reviewed the data and information in the petition, and other 
available relevant material, and determined the petitioned use of 
silver nitrate, at a level of up to 4 percent by weight in the final 
viscous gel product, in professional-use only cosmetics to color 
eyebrows and eyelashes is safe. We further conclude that the color 
additive will achieve its intended technical effect and is suitable for 
the petitioned use. Consequently, we are amending the color additive 
regulations in part 73 to provide for the safe use of this color 
additive as set forth in this document. In addition, based upon the 
factors listed in 21 CFR 71.20(b), we conclude that certification of 
silver nitrate is not necessary for the protection of public health.

V. Public Disclosure

    In accordance with Sec.  71.15 (21 CFR 71.15), the petition and the 
documents that we considered and relied upon in reaching our decision 
to approve the petition will be made available for public disclosure 
(see FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT). As provided in Sec.  71.15, we 
will delete from the documents any materials that are not available for 
public disclosure.

VI. Analysis of Environmental Impact

    We considered the environmental effects of this rule, as stated in 
the March 7, 2018, Federal Register notice of petition for CAP 8C0312. 
We have concluded that the action will not have a significant impact on 
the human environment, and that an environmental impact statement is 
not required. We did not receive any new information or comments that 
would affect this determination. Our finding of no significant impact 
and the evidence supporting that finding, contained in an environmental 
assessment, may be seen in the Dockets Management Staff (see ADDRESSES) 
between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday.

VII. Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995

    This final rule contains no collection of information. Therefore, 
clearance by the Office of Management and Budget under the Paperwork 
Reduction Act of 1995 is not required.

VIII. Objections
