NPA throws weight behind Personal Care Products Act
In a meeting with a representative from Sen. Dianne Feinstein's office, members of NPA lauded legislation the democrat senator introduced last year that would strengthen oversight of the cosmetics industry. The proposed amendment to the Federal Food, Drug & Cosmetics Act would require cosmetics companies to register their facilities with FDA and submit ingredient statements to the agency. It also would mandate good manufacturing practices and funding for inspections and enforcement.
