3 Cosmetics Safety Standards Added (o-Phenylphenol, etc.)

The National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) has drafted three standards, including o-Phenylphenol and Its Salts, which have been reviewed and approved by the Director Meeting of the Cosmetic Standardization Technical Committee under the NMPA. These standards are hereby released and incorporated into the corresponding chapters of the Safety and Technical Standards for Cosmetics (2015 Edition) (see Appendix 1).


The revised standards, o-Phenylphenol and Its Salts, Acid Violet 43 (CI 60730), and Mercury and Its Compounds (see Appendices 2–4), replace the existing provisions in the Safety and Technical Standards for Cosmetics (2015 Edition).


The two standards, o-Phenylphenol and Its Salts and Acid Violet 43 (CI 60730), will come into force on June 1, 2028. The standard Mercury and Its Compounds will come into force on July 1, 2026.


Prior to the implementation of the above standards, cosmetics that have already been produced or imported may be sold until the end of their shelf life. Registrants, filers, and manufacturers are encouraged to implement the above standards ahead of schedule.


It is hereby announced.

Updates to safety and technical standards are a good reminder that safe practice depends on keeping procedures current and understanding how substances or products should be handled responsibly.

That links well with the care certificate answers, where health and safety, infection prevention, risk awareness and following agreed ways of working are all important parts of providing safe care.

mình có lần lướt đọc mấy trao đổi trên mạng شيخ روحاني thì thấy nhắc nên cũng tò mò mở ra xem thử cho biết. mình không tìm hiểu sâu chỉ xem qua trong thời gian ngắn để quan sát bố cục cách sắp xếp جلب الحبيب các mục và trình bày nội جلب الحبيب dung tổng thể. cảm giác là các phần được trình bày khá gọn, các hurentest berlin mục rõ ràng Huren Berlin nên đọc lướt cũng không bị rối với mình như vậy là đủ để nắm tin cơ bản rồi. جلب الحبيب

Good to see the NMPA moving forward with o-Phenylphenol standards—this fills a real gap for preservative safety in cosmetics. Curious if the appendix clarifies testing methods for salts, since that’s often where compliance gets tricky. I’ve been tracking updates like this through https://perchance-ai-image.com

Good to see the NMPA moving forward with o-Phenylphenol standards—this fills a real gap for preservative safety assessments. Curious how this aligns with the EU's current limits, and I've been tracking updates on this via https://photo-generator-ai.com

Good to see the NMPA moving on o-Phenylphenol—this closes a real gap in preservative oversight. Curious how this aligns with the EU's current concentration limits, though. I've been tracking updates like this via https://faceless-video.net
