Toluene is a solvent that is a colorless flammable liquid obtained from coal tar or petroleum.

Toluene is the aromatic compound that is a solvent. The International Fragrance Association has stated it to be unsafe for use in cosmetics and the CIR has put restrictions on the concentration limits and use. There is strong evidence showing toluene to be a human developmental toxicant meaning there can be developmental and reproductive toxicity ranging from birth defects to development delays in children to infertility to reproductive organ cancers. There is strong evidence supporting neurotoxicity meaning there are health concerns ranging from development delays to chronic nerve degeneration diseases. The EPA states it to be a known human respiratory toxicant with other organ system toxicity concerns of one or more biological systems in the body such as cardiovascular, stomach and digestive systems. The EU states toluene is classified as an irritant to the skin, eyes, and lungs. The EPA has also linked it to concerns with wildlife and environmental toxicity, this may include fish, wildlife, plants and other wild organisms. Another health concern is the possibility of contamination with benzene which is a known carcinogen and is banned by Canada and the EU for use in cosmetics.
