Cosmetic Product Testing
If you're launching skincare, makeup, or haircare products in the European Union or United Kingdom, cosmetic product testing is not optional—it’s required by law. It proves your product is safe for human use, supports your claims (like “SPF 30” or “dermatologically tested”), and builds trust with retailers, regulators, and consumers.
Under EU Regulation 1223/2009 and the UK Cosmetic Products Regulation, brands must perform and document specific tests before placing any product on the market.
We Make Cosmetic Product Testing Easy
At Cosmereg, we manage the entire process—from selecting the right tests to delivering regulatory-ready documentation. With our network of ISO-certified and GMP-compliant laboratories, we help you meet all EU and UK requirements efficiently.
