The record
Independent TEM analysis found amphibole asbestos in 3 of 21 powder-based cosmetic products tested, one of which was expressly marketed for use by children.
Claim scope
A peer-reviewed, non-governmental finding of asbestos in marketed cosmetics contemporaneous with the FDA's own FY2019 positives, and that a children's product was among them.
What this source does not establish
Does NOT name products or brands — and the page MUST NOT name any. Does not establish current contamination (2020 publication). Sample selection method and whether products overlapped the FDA's recalled lots were not established from the abstract. 3 of 21 is not a market prevalence rate.
Limitations
No quantitative risk measure. Author affiliations and funding not verified in this pass; verify competing interests before publication.
