  • “redness relief” claim

    Posted by Bluebird on July 6, 2024 at 7:56 am

    I see many creams being sold with “redness relief” written on the bottles in the US.

    Isn’t that an “alteration of the body” claim that is not cosmetic in nature?

    Or is this claim okay to make for US cosmetics?

    “Redness relief” is a vague enough claim that it would probably be ok in the US. They could just mean that when you use the product, you feel better about the redness. It doesn’t actually have to do anything to actually change the redness.
