IFRA responds to consultation on the Cosmetic Products Regulation

Over the summer, the European Commission launched a public consultation on the revision of the EU Cosmetic Products Regulation (CPR). The aim was to gather input from authorities and stakeholders on whether the Regulation should be revised in the coming years, looking at what has worked well, where improvements may be needed, and what areas should be prioritised.

IFRA contributed to this consultation by sharing insights on the practical application of the CPR. In its response, IFRA underlined the urgent need to address the issues arising from the quasi-automatic ban of ingredients classified as CMR 1 in cosmetics, despite their proven safe use, and stressed the importance of maintaining a clear, proportionate, and workable framework that supports consumer safety, innovation, and competitiveness.

This evaluation of the CPR is taking place alongside the ongoing legislative process on the Omnibus VI on chemicals, which seeks to simplify certain provisions of the Regulation.

IFRA’s key demands were featured in an article published by Chemical Watch.
