Cosmetics

We have a solid understanding of the EU Cosmetics Regulation and the broader regulatory landscape affecting cosmetic products, including rules on chemicals, packaging, and sustainability. We are experienced in advising on product qualification and classification, ingredient restrictions, and the regulatory implications of product reformulations or new market entries.

Our support starts with ensuring that your products meet the applicable labelling and safety assessment requirements, and extends to advising on the rules governing cosmetic claims and advertising. When product classification questions arise, for instance at the boundary between cosmetics and medical devices or biocidal products, we help you determine the correct regulatory pathway. We also provide hands-on support when you are facing inspections or enforcement actions by competent authorities, and assist with the contractual and regulatory aspects of bringing new cosmetic products to the EU market.
