Label Compliance & Regulatory Requirements

As the seller, you are responsible for ensuring your products and labels meet all applicable laws and regulations in your region. The guidelines below outline general requirements and best practices, but it’s important to stay informed and compliant with any updates or local variations.


Label Requirements for Products Sold in North America

In the United States, the FDA requires cosmetic labels to include:

  • Product identity

  • Net quantity of contents

  • Directions for safe use

  • Warnings

  • Ingredient list

  • Period after opening (PAO)

  • Name and place of business (address or website)

These details ensure your products meet regulatory standards and give consumers the information they need to use your products safely and confidently.
