An official CAA Japan notice concerns Re・工房 "Crisp T. Shaving Gel" - Recall. It was found that the product contains no methylparaben and contains 1,3-dimethylol-5,5-dimethylhydantoin (DMDM hydantoin). Reason for recall: Following a report that ingredient analysis of this product detected formalin, a substance prohibited in formulations under the Standards for Cosmetics, and did not detect methylparaben, which is listed in the ingredients, an investigation found that the product contains no methylparaben and contains 1,3-dimethylol-5,5-dimethylhydantoin (DMDM hydantoin). We are therefore voluntarily recalling the product. Specific potential health effects: 1,3-dimethylol-5,5-dimethylhydantoin (DMDM hydantoin) is included on the positive list of the Standards for Cosmetics, and the amount of formalin thought to have been released and detected is considered very small, so serious health effects are not expected.
