MFDS permited new preparations of the "whiten and anti-wrinkle products" and "hair dye products".

MFDS (Ministry of Food and Drug Safety) disclosed the Standards and Testing Methods of Functional Cosmetics [1] on December 30 2020. The authority approved new preparations of functional cosmetics. By adding these new raw materials, the competent authority intends to enlarge the scope of functional cosmetics exempted from evaluation and ease enterprises' burden.

The relevant enterprise can only submit safety and effect reports following Article 10 of Enforcement Rule of the Cosmetics Act [3].
