All cosmetic products must display the following mandatory information on both the container (inner label) and packaging (outer label): - Name and address of the Responsible Person - Nominal content - Date of minimum duration or PAO - Country of origin (if the product is imported into the community) - Product function (unless it’s clear from its presentation) However, there are exceptions for the following three items, which we will discuss in detail later in this article. - Warnings - Batch number - INCI list Please keep in mind that the items mentioned above are specified in EU Regulation 1223/2009, which outlines the requirements for cosmetics. However, it’s important to understand that various laws govern product labelling, such as the Packaging & Waste regulations, which can vary from country to country. We encourage you to explore our article on Labelling and Packaging Regulations for more information, including details about recycling symbols.
