  • Floors, walls and ceilings are constructed of smooth, easily cleanable surfaces and are kept clean and in good repair.

  • Fixtures, ducts and pipes are installed in such a manner that drip or condensate does not contaminate cosmetic materials, utensils, cosmetic contact surfaces of equipment, or finished products in bulk.

  • Lighting and ventilation are sufficient for the intended operation and comfort of personnel.

  • Water supply, washing and toilet facilities, floor drainage and sewage system are adequate for sanitary operation and cleaning of facilities, equipment and utensils, as well as to satisfy employee needs and facilitate personal cleanliness.

Equipment

  • Equipment and utensils used in processing, holding, transferring and filling are of appropriate design, material and workmanship to prevent corrosion, buildup of material, or adulteration with lubricants, dirt or sanitizing agent.

  • Utensils, transfer piping and cosmetic contact surfaces of equipment are well-maintained and clean and are sanitized at appropriate intervals.

  • Cleaned and sanitized portable equipment and utensils are stored and located, and cosmetic contact surfaces of equipment are covered, in a manner that protects them from splash, dust or other contamination.

Personnel

  • The personnel supervising or performing the manufacture or control of cosmetics has the education, training and/or experience to perform the assigned functions.

  • Persons coming into direct contact with cosmetic materials, finished products in bulk or cosmetic contact surfaces, to the extent necessary to prevent adulteration of cosmetic products, wear appropriate outer garments, gloves, hair restraints etc., and maintain adequate personal cleanliness.

  • Consumption of food or drink, or use of tobacco is restricted to appropriately designated areas.

Raw Materials

  • Raw materials and primary packaging materials are stored and handled in a manner which prevents their mix-up, contamination with microorganisms or other chemicals, or decomposition from exposure to excessive heat, cold, sunlight or moisture.

  • Containers of materials are closed, and bagged or boxed materials are stored off the floor.

  • Containers of materials are labeled with respect to identity, lot identification and control status.

  • Materials are sampled and tested or examined in conformance with procedures assuring the absence of contamination with filth, microorganisms or other extraneous substances to the extent necessary to prevent adulteration of finished products. Pay particular attention to materials of animal or vegetable origin and those used in the manufacture of cosmetics by cold processing methods with respect to contamination with filth or microorganisms.

  • Materials not meeting acceptance specifications are properly identified and controlled to prevent their use in cosmetics.

Production

  • The equipment for processing, transfer and filling the utensils, and the containers for holding raw and bulk materials are clean, in good repair and in sanitary condition.

  • Only approved materials are used.

  • Samples are taken, as appropriate, during and/or after processing, transfer or filling for testing for adequacy of mixing or other forms of processing, absence of hazardous microorganisms or chemical contaminants, and compliance with any other acceptance specification.

  • Weighing and measuring of raw materials is checked by a second person, and containers holding the materials are properly identified.

  • Major equipment, transfer lines, containers and tanks are used for processing, filling or holding cosmetics are identified to indicate contents, batch designation, control status and other pertinent information.

  • Labels are examined for identity before labeling operations to avoid mix-up.

  • The equipment for processing, holding, transferring and filling of batch is labeled regarding identity, batch identification and control status.

  • Packages of finished products bear permanent code marks.

  • Returned cosmetics are examined for deterioration or contamination.

Laboratory Controls

  • Raw materials, in-process samples and finished products are tested or examined to verify their identity and determine their compliance with specifications for physical and chemical properties, microbial contamination, and hazardous or other unwanted chemical contaminants.

  • Reserve samples of approved lots or batches of raw materials and finished products are retained for the specified time period, are stored under conditions that protect them from contamination or deterioration, and are retested for continued compliance with established acceptance specifications.

  • The water supply, particularly the water used as a cosmetic ingredient, is tested regularly for conformance with chemical-analytical and microbiological specifications.

  • Fresh as well as retained samples of finished products are tested for adequacy of preservation against microbial contamination which may occur user reasonably foreseeable condition of storage and consumer use.

Records

  • Raw materials and primary packaging materials, documenting disposition of rejected materials.

  • Manufacturing of batches, documenting the: <br>- Kinds, lots and quantities of material used <br>- Processing, handling, transferring, holding and filling<br>- Sampling, controlling, adjusting and reworking<br>- Code marks of batches and finished products

  • Finished products, documenting sampling, individual laboratory controls, test results and control status.

  • Distribution, documenting initial interstate shipment, code marks and consignees.

Labeling

  • On the principal display panel: <br>In addition to the name of the product, the statements of identity and net contents, <br>The statement "Warning--The safety of this product has not been determined" if the safety of the respective product has not adequately been substantiated. <br>Determine whether and what toxicological and/or other testing the firm has conducted to substantiate the safety of its products
