Cosmetics sold in the United States need to be in compliance with labeling requirements of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic (FD&C) Act, the Fair Packaging and Labeling (FP&L) Act, and Food and Drug Administration Regulations. These laws require Cosmetic Ingredient Labeling to declare the ingredients in descending order of predominance. Flavor, fragrance, and trade secret ingredients are excluded.
