Résumé : |
On a daily basis, cosmetic manufacturers must deal with the most diverse demands on their products. This includes, amongst others, different microbiological requirements for cosmetic products. In this respect, and further to legal specifications, guidance is provided by various DIN standards. However, responsibility for the nature and extent of the necessary microbiological tests lies solely with the manufacturer. Thus, special consideration must be given to different factors such as the microbiological risk posed by a product, differences between available testing methods, production hygiene, and packaging.
Before marketing a product, however, it must be determined whether it is indeed of a cosmetics nature. As such, cosmetic products can be found in medicines, medical devices, food, consumer products, and biocides. Fortunately, legal definitions of individual categories provide some help in determining the product nature. The following statement can be used by way of a guideline : The more systemic the product effect, the less consistent it is with the definition of cosmetic products.
Advertising with and for cosmetics requires knowledge of the different legal requirements. These include the Directive 2005/29/EC on unfair commercial practices, the Regulation (EC) no. 1223/2009 on cosmetic products and the Claims Regulation 655/2013. In particular, the Claims Regulation 655/2013 defines six principles to be observed by advertisers of cosmetic products : Legal compliance, truthfulness, verifiability, honesty, integrity, and informed decision-making. |
