Senator Weber Pierson introduced Senate Bill No. 39 to amend Section 108980 of the Health and Safety Code. The bill proposes exemptions for vaginal and vulvar cosmetic products from certain ingredient bans, as long as they pass strict safety testing.
This urgent legislation sets specific conditions for these exemptions and recognizes the historical use of boric acid for vaginal odor treatment, backed by medical recommendations. The bill also outlines harmful ingredients in cosmetics while allowing exceptions for vaginal or vulvar applications under controlled conditions.
