Cosmetic safety remains a cornerstone of regulatory oversight worldwide. Across China, the EU, and the US, cosmetic enterprises are held responsible for ensuring their products are safe for human use.
While the core principle of "safety" is consistent, the regulatory requirements for safety assessment vary across these three major markets:
China: Cosmetic registrants and notifiers are required to submit safety assessment documents during product registration or notification;
EU: Products must undergo a thorough safety assessment prior to market entry, ensuring they are safe for human health under normal and reasonably foreseeable conditions of use. The safety assessment culminates in the Cosmetic Product Safety Report (CPSR), which must be included in the Product Information File (PIF);
US: A responsible person is required to ensure product safety and maintain records supporting adequate safety substantiation for their cosmetic products.
To help stakeholders navigate and compare the safety assessment requirements in these key regions, ChemLinked invited Wennie Wei, a regulatory specialist from REACH24H, to explain the regulatory differences between China, the EU, and the US, highlight recent updates and special requirements regarding China’s safety assessment, and share practical compliance advice to help companies prepare for market access.
