Since January 1st 1997 there is European legislation labelling that cosmetic products are supplied with a list of their ingredients. The ingredients are given in order of decreasing concentration using the nomenclature 'International nomenclature cosmetic ingredient' (INCI). This enables dermatologists to identify the allergenic components of cosmetic products in patients with allergic contact dermatitis caused by cosmetics, and enables allergic patients to purchase other cosmetic products without risking a recurrence of dermatitis.
自1997年1月1日起，欧洲立法规定化妆品须标明其成分清单。成分按照浓度递减顺序列出，并采用“国际化妆品原料命名法”（INCI）。这使得皮肤科医生能够识别因化妆品引起的过敏性接触性皮炎患者所用化妆品中的致敏成分，也使过敏患者能够购买其他化妆品而不用担心皮炎复发。
