Perhaps the table with examples of INCI names should not only contain oils but also names on a couple of common preservatives, and other common cosmetic ingredients. Sodium laureth sulfate and what have you. The point is not really that there is a common name and an INCI name, often there are several more or less chemically correct names but one is used in INCI. // 90.130.219.60 (talk) 07:54, 19 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

FDA does not require cosmetics to use INCI labeling, so that section of the article--including the cited references--is misleading. Soap cannot be specifically exempt from INCI labeling because no FDA-regulated cosmetics are required to use INCI terminology. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 150.148.14.140 (talk) 22:11, 14 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
