Every cosmetic product needs to be manufactured, packaged, and stored under hygienic and healthy conditions. The FDA imposes a penalty on manufacturers if they misbrand or adulterate commodities, or package their products inappropriately. Manufacturers or importers must carry a safety assessment before marketing their cosmetic products.
Your products must meet cosmetic labelling regulations i.e. Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act and Fair Packaging and Labeling Act in USA.
The authority inspects locations where companies manufacture or store their cosmetic products. The agency also monitors advertising or labelling material related to products.
Product identification, net quantity declaration, and identity and location of business of the dealer must appear on the label of a pre-packaged cosmetic.
If the cosmetic product is misbranded or adulterated by manufacturers or importers, the FDA can issue a warning letter followed by taking a legal action depending on the case.
We provide two tiers of services when it comes to USA Cosmetic Label Compliance. In the first tier, our regulatory team will review your artwork and give suggestions. In the second one, our graphic designer and regulatory team will assist you in preparing a fully compliant, print-ready art file.
FDA’s Voluntary Cosmetic Registration Program (VCRP) is a reporting system for use by manufacturers, packers, and distributors of cosmetic products that are in commercial distribution in the United States. If you want to register a cosmetic product with the FDA you must open a VCRP account. The online VCRP system can then be used to file an establishment registration (Form 2511).
In order to register your beauty products in the US you need to determine whether your products require registration, appoint an authorised agent, submit the regulatory dossier, and obtain the registration certificate. If you need help with any of these steps let us know by emailing info@qualitysmartsolutions.com.
