Cosmetics regulation


Regulation (EC) no. 1223/2009 is the European standard that defines the requirements for the production and marketing of cosmetics in order to guarantee a high level of protection of human health.

This objective is guaranteed by the ingredients used in a cosmetic formulation, by the product safety assessment carried out by a competent person and which takes into consideration factors such as the product formulation, the physico-chemical and microbiological properties of the raw materials and the finished product the manufacturing method, the data on the safety assessment of the product, the evidence of the claimed effects and the existing data regarding the undesirable effects on human health caused by the cosmetic product following its use. This information must be reported in the document known as the Product Information File (PIF).

Before being placed on the market, the product must be labeled and packaged in compliance with specific requirements established by the cosmetics regulation and its formulation must be notified to the European CPNP portal.
