China Endorses Two Cosmetics Ingredients Under CSAR
China implemented CSAR in January 2021, and this was after 30 years of waiting. China recently took another massive step by approving its first cosmetics ingredients under CSAR. As recently published in the International Nomenclature Cosmetic Ingredient, the names of the new ingredients are acetylneuraminic acid and lauroyl alanine, with their concentration levels restricted at 2% and 20%, respectively.
This means that ingredients not listed on the final revised version of the Inventory of Existing Cosmetic Ingredients in China (IECIC) cannot be marketed or sold. Companies are expected to file or register such ingredients with the NMPA. And registrations also depend on if the ingredient has a special use as a preservative, whitener, amongst others.
