Verdict

Generally considered safe at typical cosmetic use levels; CIR has evaluated the broader Aureobasidium pullulans ferment family. Potential for sensitization in individuals with mold/fungal allergies is theoretically possible but not documented at significant rates.. Produces β-glucan and pullulan polysaccharides during fermentation, providing moisture-binding and film-forming benefits. Origin: biotechnology/plant biotechnology

US Note

Allowed - not prohibited or restricted; pullulan (key polysaccharide produced by this organism) holds GRAS status
