Why Lab Testing for Cosmetic Products is Crucial for Market Access
Legal background
Robust lab testing for cosmetic products ensures your offerings are safe, stable, and compliant. It ensures that products are safe for human use, stable throughout their shelf life, and effective as claimed. The results of these tests are reviewed by a qualified Safety Assessor and form an integral part of the Product Information File (PIF), which is mandatory for regulatory compliance. What is a cosmetic safety assessment? It speaks positively about the company and the products. This builds credibility in the market.
Failing to conduct proper lab testing can result in serious consequences, including:
-
-
- Regulatory rejection or denial of market access due to an incomplete PIF
- Product recalls or bans imposed by the authorities
- Harm to consumers, potentially leading to liability claims or lawsuits
- Damage to brand reputation and loss of consumer trust
- Delays in product launch caused by failed safety assessments
