Mandatory national standard cosmetics label "all ingredients" is a mystery

Last month, the mandatory national standard "General Label for the Use of Consumer Goods" was officially implemented. It stipulates that all cosmetics produced or imported and sold in China must be marked with the Chinese standard name of all ingredients on the packaging.

However, after more than a month passed, this mandatory national standard has become a piece of paper. Yesterday, when reporters visited some cosmetics markets in Hangzhou, they found that more than half of the cosmetics have not been labeled as “all components ”.

Most brands do not have ingredients

The label "there is a manual in the box" is actually very embarrassing.

In fact, the new national standard for cosmetics labels that began to be implemented on June 17 is not new. It was announced as early as 2008, aiming to provide cosmetics manufacturers with two years of preparation and transition period. However, most of the recently produced cosmetics currently on the market are still not labeled "all-in-one".

Yesterday, the reporter saw in the Century Lianhua Qingchun store that the shampoos of Shulei, Chasing, Lux and other brands were not marked with all ingredients; the shampoo that was involved in the “carcinogenic door” in the past was the ingredients. complete.

In the same situation, there are a number of L'Oreal products. The reporter did not find detailed ingredients on the bottles of the L'Oreal men's series of skin-lifting lotions, moisturizers, lotions, etc., and only ambiguously marked "active protection system". In a cleansing gel product from L'Oreal, the ingredient labeled "vitamin C derivative + skin rejuvenating active ingredient". The salesperson told the reporter that there is a manual in the detailed ingredient box.

According to the new regulations, "the name of all ingredients of cosmetics should be truly marked on the visible side of the cosmetics sales package." Some cosmetics have ingredients printed on the instructions, and the sales package cannot be opened because of the plastic seal, which makes it impossible for consumers to see the ingredient list from the "visible side".
