What the evidence says
The only cited source is the FDA regulation permitting ultramarines (including Ultramarine Blue, CI 77007) for use in externally applied cosmetics, including products used near the eye, subject to purity limits on lead, arsenic, and mercury and 'good manufacturing practice' amounts. The regulation does not describe any toxicological concern, adverse effect, or safety controversy; it is a permissive listing rather than a hazard assessment. No data on dose-response, systemic absorption, or irritation studies are presented in this document.
Context
Used in both rinse-off and leave-on color cosmetics; stability, not safety, is the main formulation consideration, particularly in low-pH products.
Nothing here makes a claim to grade.
