Two-photon microscopy (TPM), a high-resolution three-dimensional imaging technology based on nonlinear optical effects, has demonstrated significant application potential in the field of cosmetic efficacy evaluation in recent years. Its core advantages lie in its non-invasive, in vivo, in situ, label-free real-time imaging capability, enabling deep observation of dynamic changes in cells and the extracellular matrix within skin tissue. This provides a scientific basis for evaluating the safety and efficacy of cosmetics.

On June 30, 2025, the Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (SCCS) of the European Union issued scientific opinion(SCCS/1678/25) on Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate (DHHB) (CAS/EC No. 302776-68-7/443-860-6). Previously, on February 17, 2025, the SCCS published the scientific opinion on this substance which was open for comments. The scientific advice released this time is consistent with the assessment conclusions proposed during the comment phase and further confirms the maximum safe level and recommends the target maximal level of DnHexP as an impurity in DHHB.

Skin aging is a multifaceted process driven by both intrinsic and extrinsic factors, commonly categorized as endogenous (internal) aging and exogenous (external) aging. Intrinsic factors refer to unavoidable biological changes within our bodies that progress naturally over time. Extrinsic factors stem from elements in our environment that directly influence the skin—many of which can be modified or controlled. For example, external environmental exposure (ultraviolet, infrared, visible light exposure), environmental pollution (pollutants, dust, smoke), bad habits and mental stress can all accelerate skin aging.
