| Summary |
The notified Information Circular No. 005/ERIS-CA/2025 announces the prohibition on the use of the ingredient Trimethylbenzoyl Diphenylphosphine Oxide (TPO) in cosmetic products in Cabo Verde, effective as of 1 September 2025.

This ingredient, commonly used in gel nail polish, will be prohibited for professional and commercial use. The ERIS advises providers, professionals and consumers to ensure that TPO is withdrawn from the market and to report any irregularities
