    Hi everyone,

    I am looking for some advice please. I am looking at creating a line of body oils containing coconut oils and other natural plant based oil ingredients. I am based in the UK and I will be selling online initially (worldwide). I just wanted to get some advice on the legalities and regulations on selling something that’s 100% natural and free from any chemicals.
    Any advice would be brilliant. 
    Thanks

    well for starters, you cannot legally claim that your product is “free from any chemicals” unless you want to try selling a vacuum

    absolutely everything that goes into a product, whether it’s part of the packaging, the product itself, or even the air inside it, is a chemical of some kind, both in the scientific and the legal sense

    You’re looking for a level of information that will require you to either hire a regulatory consultant or take one of Perry’s courses - or both.
