Cosmetics​

Cosmetics are a necessary part of everyday life. They include things like eye makeup, face products, hair styling tools, personal care items, skin protectants, lotions, and creams. The FDA doesn’t require cosmetics to be approved before they go on the market (except for color additives), but companies are legally required to make sure their products are safe for people to use. Testing is an important part of making sure that formulations meet safety, stability, and regulatory standards before they are sold.

Chromak Research offers a full range of testing services for cosmetics to help brands, suppliers, and manufacturers make sure their products are safe and of high quality.

The cosmetics industry is growing so quickly around the world that product safety is now a top priority. People expect beauty and personal care products to do more than just make them look better; they also expect them to protect their health.  Testing for cosmetic safety makes sure that products are safe, work well, and don’t have any harmful ingredients for the whole time they are on the shelf.

By conducting such tests, organizations ensure their customers remain healthy and the images of their own brands are preserved.

Chromak Research provides various cosmetic product tests in a bid to fulfill international regulatory requirements. These include:

These services ensure that all international regulatory requirements for cosmetics, such as FDA regulations, ISO regulations, and other international regulations, are complied with.

The FDA is not required to approve cosmetics prior to sale, but they must be safe for use according to directions or in usual conditions. There are also strict rules in the EU and other international markets about how cosmetics should be made, packaged, and labeled.
