What do the Clean, Low, Watch and Swap levels mean?

They are cut from a continuous concern level the app computes from the sourced claims that the chosen evidence lens shows: each claim counts its concern class, tier weight, confidence and dose relevance, combined worst-first with a decay so one serious finding outweighs many small ones, then scaled by how much of the substance reaches you in this use. Clean is below 0.35, Low below 1.1, Watch below 2.0 and Swap above that, on a 0 to 3 scale.

Sourced concerns (1)

ConsensusRestrictedconfidence 100%

Ultramarines (CI 77007) are approved as color additives for externally applied cosmetics, including those used around the eyes, in the US and are permitted in all cosmetic categories in the EU; however, the US FDA restricts their use in lip products due to concerns about sulfur release in the acidic environment of the mouth.

Why here: This claim directly addresses the dermal_leave_on exposure route, including application to the eye area, and highlights specific regulatory restrictions for lip products within this route.
What would have to be true: Use as a colorant in externally applied cosmetics, consistent with good manufacturing practices.
The other side: N/A.
