If you need the translation service of the full text or certain parts STSC 2022, please feel free to contact us at cosmetic@chemlinked.com.STSC is the overarching technical standard for cosmetics safety supervision and testing in China. It contains the prohibited, restricted, and permitted cosmetic ingredients, physical and chemical testing methods for cosmetics, microbiological testing methods, toxicological testing methods, human body safety testing methods, and human body efficacy evaluation testing methods.Under China’s new cosmetic regulatory regime, STSC 2015 is lagging behind in some aspects and can no longer fully meet the needs of industry development and supervision work. Therefore, China NIFDC plans to introduce a more systematic and comprehensive version of STSC to supersede the existing 2015 version and make the standards further consistent with the current industry situation.STSC 2022 inherits the basic framework of STSC 2015 and overhauls the content, which includes revising the content that is not suitable for the current regulatory requirements, retaining the content that is still applicable, including the previous dynamic revisions, as well as standardizing and improving some terms and expressions.Table of Content:List 1 Revision Comparison Table of Chapter 1 OverviewList 2 Revision Comparison Table of Chapter 2 Prohibited/Restricted Ingredients Used in CosmeticsList 3 Revision Comparison Table of Chapter 3 Permitted Ingredients Used in CosmeticsList 4 Revision Comparison Table of Chapter 4 Physical and Chemical Testing Methods for CosmeticsList 5 Revision Comparison Table of Chapter 5 Methods of Microbiological TestList 6 Revision Comparison Table of Chapter 6 Methods of Toxicological TestList 7 Revision Comparison Table of Chapter 7 Human Body Safety Testing MethodList 8 Revision Comparison Table of Chapter 8 Human Body Efficacy Evaluation Testing Method1 General Principles of Human Body Efficacy Evaluation Testing Method
