Since the entry into force in 2013 of Cosmetics Regulation 1223/2009, cosmetic claims are under tension and are constantly being examined in the light of the Common Criteria with which they must comply in order to be used.
Beyond the already known principles, they have established a very restrictive framework, in particular for “Free-from…” or “Hypoallergenic” claims, which would be almost all impossible to display on packaging and in advertisements for cosmetic products.
How to do without the “Without…” claims?
Which claims should be prohibited and which should be replaced them?
How can the authorities sanction non-compliance in this area?
