The Consumer Packaging and Labelling Act and Consumer Packaging and Labelling Regulations prescribe the mandatory information that must appear on the label of a pre-packaged cosmetic product which includes the:
product's identification in English and French;
declaration of the product's net quantity in metric units of measure in English and French; and
identity and principal place of business of the dealer in English or French.
The Act and Regulations also address false or misleading representation of the product and the standardization of container size.
The Act and Regulations govern only those cosmetic products sold to consumers. It does not govern cosmetics applied by cosmeticians, hairdressers, etc., to their clients unless such persons sell the cosmetics to their clients as pre-packaged products.
