The use of any new cosmetic ingredient must be safe. That is a legal obligation according to Article 3 of the European Cosmetic Regulation and in other cosmetic-related laws and standards throughout the world, but also a moral one, as it would be unethical to place on the market a substance that is toxic, or whose toxicity is unknown and for which safe exposure cannot be demonstrated.
Ensure your cosmetic products are safe and compliant in the EU with a Cosmetic Product Safety Report (CPSR). Learn what it includes, who prepares it, and why it’s legally required under Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009.
