  • Testing new personal care product to meet FDA regulations

    I wonder what test data we should present for a new hand cream product to meet FDA regulations. And what company do you recommend for that job?

    Thanks

    @WNP

    You don’t need to present data, but you will need to have on file:

    (1). Preservative Challenge Test Results indicating a Pass

    (2) Cosmetic Ingredient Safety Report

      Thank you for the information. I am in talks with Certified Labs, so I will ask them for these 2 tests you recommend. And probably, stability test as well. For the second test, i.e., the Cosmetic Ingredient Safety Report, how does the test work? I can provide them the ingredients used in the product, but I still cannot figure out how they would test. It would be great if you could shed some insight into the process. Thanks.

    Cosmetic Ingredient Safety Report is not a physical test. It is a compilation of the toxicology of each ingredient in the formula and an assessment of the safety of the product. I offer MoCRA compliance services and can prepare a CISR for you.
