China to Introduce Requirements for Cosmetic Efficacy Verification Institutions
Apr 06, 2016
China Food and Drug Administration introduced the concepts of validation of efficacy claims for the first time in the draft “Administrative Measures on Cosmetics Labeling” on Nov 15 2014. The draft stipulated that all products except moisturizing products and hair dyes with efficacy validated by accredited testing institutions can be labeled with relevant validation data. Products without validated efficacy data should be labeled with “efficacy has not been validated”. Although not a mandatory regulatory requirement, efficacy claims are necessary in terms of consumer acceptance of cosmetics. Indicating a specific efficacy claim requires adequate testing and evaluation data to support the claim, making efficacy testing in these instances a mandatory requirement. The draft does however not stipulate which testing facilities are accredited to perform efficacy testing and what conditions efficacy evaluation and validation institutions should conform to.
