New stand-alone act (no earlier Illinois cosmetics ingredient-ban act found; the 'original date' in the brief does not exist for this act; 410 ILCS 170 is not a cosmetics ingredient ban). Governor approved 7/10/2026 per ILGA bill status. Same 25-substance list as Maryland/Virginia. Standard is 'knowingly' and 'intentionally added'; trace exemption (impurity, manufacturing process, storage, packaging) when made through a process intended to comply. The act text has no penalty, enforcement, agency, rulemaking, sell-through, retailer or small-business provision (Sections 1, 5, 10, 15, 99 only). Intended to be consistent with EU Regulation 1223/2009. Any separate Illinois PFAS-product law (e.g. under the PFAS Reduction Act) is covered by another group and not recorded here.
