The overarching aim of this project was to characterize human and environmental health concerns associated with ingredients in skincare products used in healthcare facilities in BC. An inventory containing, for example, ingredient identifiers, ingredient composition, and a health hazard/risk ranking scheme was developed to support a systematic and structured characterization of the health concerns.
