Soap and Cosmetic Packaging & Labeling Rules and Regulations Handbook
How to Implement Good Manufacturing Practices
If you are like me, you started making soap, lotions, candles and all other beauty and cosmetic products for yourself as a hobby. But then you got hooked and started making lots of them that you started giving it away to your extended family and friends. They are delighted, happy and surprised with the quality of your creation.
Then one day with the repeated advice from all your friends and family you decide to start a small business right out of your home. Now you are making soap, bath bombs, shampoo, lotions, creams and so much more. But before you start to sell them online or to your local marketplace, there are few basic Federal and State governmental rules and regulations you need to know and follow to keep your new business in compliance with the industry standard and required practices.
There are specific FDA, USDA, FTC and all other governmental regulatory guidelines that you have to follow both for proper packaging and labeling of your products.
These requirements can vary widely by product type, shape and intent of use, for example, the label requirements for soap will be vastly different than the labeling requirements for say body cream.
If you read my book “Soap Making Business Startup,” then you know, my business started right on my kitchen counter, and I grew it to a 6 figure business and then sold it. But this is not about my success or my soap making expertise; it is about proper packaging and labeling of all your homemade bath, beauty and cosmetics.
