Cosmetics & Personal Care (UK and EU)

Cosmetic Regulatory Compliance Services in the UK and EU
Cosmetic regulatory compliance ensures cosmetic products meet all legal requirements for safety, labelling, technical documentation, and product notification before they are placed on the UK or EU market. Manufacturers, importers, distributors, retailers, private label brands, and online sellers each carry obligations under the UK Cosmetics Regulation and Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 to ensure their cosmetic products are safe, compliant, and legally available for sale.
At Connect 4 Compliance, we provide comprehensive cosmetic regulatory compliance services to help businesses navigate UK and EU cosmetic regulations with confidence. From product formulation reviews and ingredient assessments to Cosmetic Product Safety Reports (CPSRs), Product Information Files (PIFs), Responsible Person services, labelling compliance, and CPNP and SCPN product notifications, we support businesses at every stage of the product lifecycle. Our experienced regulatory consultants help you minimise compliance risks, achieve successful market entry, and maintain ongoing compliance across the UK and EU markets.

Our services include:
EU Cosmetic Compliance Expertise
For brands expanding to Europe, we provide comprehensive EU cosmetic compliance services. With deep knowledge of Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009, we help ensure your cosmetic products meet EU safety, labelling and notification standards. A Responsible Person established in the EU is mandatory before a cosmetic product can be placed on the EU market. Our registered office in Tallinn, Estonia means we hold that role directly rather than routing clients through a third party, and delivers EU services across all member states.
UK Cosmetic Compliance Services
Cosmetic products placed on the Great Britain market must comply with the UK Cosmetics Regulation, with safety, documentation and notification requirements enforced by Trading Standards and OPSS. A Responsible Person established in the UK is mandatory, and products must be notified through the Submit Cosmetic Product Notification (SCPN) service rather than CPNP. Since EU exit the two regimes have diverged, with GB and EU annexes now differing on certain restricted and prohibited substances. We prepare UK Product Information Files and Cosmetic Product Safety Reports, review labels against GB requirements, act as your UK Responsible Person, and manage SCPN notification
