P-AMINOPHENOL
Is P-AMINOPHENOL safe for seborrheic dermatitis?
p-Aminophenol is context-dependent for seborrheic dermatitis. It is a hair-dye ingredient with regulated use conditions and allergy warnings, so product type and scalp condition are central to a sensible decision.
EU rules permit specified hair and eyelash colour uses under limits and warnings; the eyelash use is professional only. This is different from an unconditional cosmetic prohibition. No applicable human seb derm study was found. Follow the dye's instructions and warnings, including those about irritated or damaged scalp, and ask a professional if you have a history of reactions.

What is P-AMINOPHENOL used for in skincare?
p-Aminophenol is listed for hair dyeing. Its purpose is to participate in a colouring product, not to improve scalp health or manage seb derm. The official ingredient-specific opinion and EU Annex III entry provide the relevant safety and permitted-use context; restrictions on differently substituted aminophenols should not be applied to this name.
