The future of the Cosmetics Regulation

During this year’s Cosmetics Europe Annual Conference – a year event that gathers cosmetics leaders, experts, companies and regulators – the European Commission expressed where their concerns would lie for the future.

The focus was on:

• The labelling of products suitable for sensitive skin
• The analysis of alternatives to animal testing
• Preservatives
• The improvement of the current approach to CMR substances
• Endocrine disruptors
• Assessment of the microplastics issue
• Update of the labelled allergens
• Nanomaterials
• Lisbonisation

The speech ended with the confirmation that the European Commission very much looks forward to maintaining a dialogue between the cosmetics industry and values their input and concerns.
