Lawsuit Launched as Testing Finds CANCER-Causing Chemical -- Cocamide DEA -- in Nearly 100 SHAMPOO/Hair Care and Personal Care Products Including The Wildly Popular PAUL MITCHELL "Exclusive" Salon-Only Brand!

chemical in 98 shampoos, soaps, and other personal care products sold by major national retailers. The chemical,
cocamide diethanolamine (cocamide DEA), a chemically-modified form of coconut oil used as a thickener or
foaming agent in many products, was listed by California as a known carcinogen last year. Products tested with
high levels of cocamide DEA include shampoos made by Colgate Palmolive, Colomer, Paul Mitchell, and many
others. In addition, products marketed for children and a product falsely labeled as organic were found with the
chemical, in violation of California law.
nonprofit has sent legal notices to more than 100 other companies that produce and/or sell cocamide DEA-tainted
products that their products violate state law. "Most people believe that products sold in major stores are tested
for safety, but consumers need to know that they could be doused with a cancer-causing chemical every time they
shower or shampoo," said Michael Green, Executive Director of CEH. "We expect companies to take swift action
to end this unnecessary risk to our children's and families' health."
found cocamide DEA in store-brand products purchased at Walmart, Trader Joe's, Pharmaca, and Kohl's. A store
brand children's bubble bath from Kmart and a children's shampoo/conditioner from Babies R Us were also found
with cocamide DEA. Falsely labeled organic products from Organic by Africa's Best also tested for high levels of
the cancer-causing chemical; CEH previously won a legal settlement with this company requiring it to end its use
of phony organic labels.
retailers and from online retailers since June, and commissioned an independent lab to determine the total content
of the chemical in the products. In many cases, products contain more than 10,000 ppm cocamide DEA, and one
shampoo tested at more than 200,000 ppm (20%) cocamide DEA. California listed cocamide DEA in June 2012
as a chemical known to cause cancer based on the assessment by The International Agency for Research on
Cancer, which evaluated skin exposure tests on animals.
harmful chemicals in our air, water, food and in dozens of every day products. CEH also works with major industries
and leaders in green business to promote healthier alternatives to toxic products and practices. In 2010, the San
Francisco Business Times bestowed its annual "Green Champion" award to CEH for its work to improve health
and the environment in the Bay Area and beyond.
