Labeling & Legislation

Each country will have its own very specific laws about what information is required on a cosmetic - to make it legal for supply.

Please contact your local Cosmetic Regulation Office for this information.

Where you can not fit information onto a cosmetic due to its size, the following symbol must be present on the cosmetic product.

It says to the consumer using your product, that they should see the flyer or book (sold with the product, or available at your display unit) to check ingredients & application information - prior to use.

When printing Labels:

You generally will only do this once at the commencement of your range. After that, you simply affix your own labels, once your prefilled items arrive with you. By in-housing these steps, actually saves your business hundreds of dollars.

As a brief introduction to this topic, the following items are among some which must be present on the cosmetic product.

1. Ingredients
2. Name and Address of Manufacturer/Supplier
3. Durability (store in a cool place) / Period After Opening
4. Precautions/Warnings
5. Batch Number/Lot Code
6. Product Function

Please contact your local Cosmetic Regulator to obtain the relevant information which is specific to your geographical market.
