Terms and acronyms used in these Guidelines AICS Cosmetics Guidelines Cosmetics Standard ICNA Act NICNAS Regulations SUSMP TGA Australian Inventory of Chemical Substances This document is the Cosmetics Guidelines. This is intended to be a plain-english guide for stakeholders about the requirements in relation to cosmetics. It is an administrative document only and is not a legally binding document. This is the Standard for Cosmetics made by the Minister under section 81 of the ICNA Act. The Cosmetics Standard sets out the rules or conditions that apply to certain cosmetics. The Cosmetics Standard is a legislative instrument made under the ICNA Act and must be complied with. Failure to comply with the Cosmetics Standard is an offence under the ICNA Act. Industrial Chemicals (Notification and Assessment) Act 1989 National Industrial Chemicals Notification and Assessment Scheme The definition of cosmetic enables certain types of products to be included, and excluded, from the definition of cosmetic. This is done by the making of Regulations under the ICNA Act. There are currently no Regulations made under the ICNA Act in relation to the definition of a cosmetic.

A. About these Guidelines These Guidelines are issued by the Director of the National Industrial Chemicals Notification and Assessment Scheme (NICNAS) to explain the recent changes to the Industrial Chemicals (Notification and Assessment) Act 1989 (the ICNA Act) in relation to cosmetics and to provide general guidance on the new legislative requirements. To this end, the Guidelines describe: the requirements applying to cosmetics regulated by NICNAS (refer Part B); further information about the definition of cosmetic (refer Part C); products that are regulated as cosmetics (including specific conditions applying to certain cosmetics) (Part D); examples of products that are not regulated as cosmetics and continue to be regulated as therapeutic goods (Part E); the chemicals that are prohibited from use in cosmetics, or restricted in their use in cosmetics (refer Part F); list of recommended sunscreening agents for use in cosmetic products (Part G); the consequences of non-compliance with the requirements in relation to cosmetics (refer Part H); and opportunities to seek further information (refer Part I). These Guidelines replace the NICNAS Cosmetics Guidelines dated February 2007. The requirements relating to cosmetics remain largely the same; however the structure of these new Guidelines differs from the old Guidelines (which relied, for example, on concepts of cosmetic criteria and cosmetic product categories). This is because these new Guidelines have been drafted in accordance with the amendments to the ICNA Act which distinguish between: products that are regulated as cosmetics and products regulated as therapeutic goods; and cosmetics that are subject to Cosmetics Standards and cosmetics that are not. This is explained in more detail in these Guidelines. It is important to note that the guidelines do not constitute legal advice and users are encouraged to seek professional advice about the application of the legislation to their particular circumstances. In these guidelines, some aspects of the legislation and policy have been simplified. In cases of discrepancy between the guidelines and the legislation, the legislation should be relied on. Any updates to these Guidelines will be published on the NICNAS website and stakeholders will have the opportunity to seek amendments to these guidelines NICNAS Cosmetics Guidelines 2007 (Modified 28 July 2011) Page 4 of 22

from time to time, by formal application to NICNAS. Amendment to the Guidelines will be at the discretion of the Director. NICNAS Cosmetics Guidelines 2007 (Modified 28 July 2011) Page 5 of 22

B. Summary of Requirements for Cosmetics In general, cosmetics must meet the following criteria or requirements: The product must meet the definition of cosmetic in Australia under the Industrial Chemicals (Notification and Assessment) Act 1989, namely: cosmetic means: (a) a substance or preparation intended for placement in contact with any external part of the human body, including: (i) the mucous membranes of the oral cavity; and (ii) the teeth; with a view to: (iii) altering the odours of the body; or (iv) changing its appearance; or (v) cleansing it; or (vi) maintaining it in good condition (also see Part C of these Guidelines) ; or (vii) perfuming it; or (viii) protecting it; or (b) a substance or preparation prescribed by regulations made for the purposes of this paragraph; but does not include: (c) a therapeutic good within the meaning of the Therapeutic Goods Act 1989; or (d) a substance or preparation prescribed by regulations made for the purposes of this paragraph. Note: Part C of these guidelines provides more explanatory information about this definition. AND The product must NOT be for preventing, diagnosing, curing or alleviating a disease, ailment, defect or injury in persons. However, this does not preclude use of the words prevent/preventing/prevention for general cosmetic purposes. AND The product must not be scheduled in S2, S3 or S4 or S8 of the Standard for the Uniform Scheduling of Medicines and Poisons (SUSMP). NICNAS Cosmetics Guidelines 2007 (Modified 28 July 2011) Page 6 of 22

AND The product must be marketed as a cosmetic taking into account the labelling, packaging, advertising and/or the label statements: - the product must have full ingredient disclosure in accordance with the Trade Practices (Consumer Product Information Standards) (Cosmetics) Regulations 1991; - the product may be presented as being explicitly for cosmetic purposes only; and - the product name would NOT of itself make the product a therapeutic good, unless that name makes a reference to a disease, ailment, defect or injury in persons. AND The product must meet any applicable conditions detailed in the new Cosmetics Standard (made under section 81 of the ICNA Act). The Cosmetics Standard sets out the standards (or conditions) that apply to certain product categories. These requirements are described in Table B of Part D of these Guidelines. AND The product must NOT contain chemicals prohibited for use in cosmetics or meets restrictions specified for chemicals used in cosmetics (see the Part F: Prohibited or Restricted Cosmetic Chemicals in Australia). NICNAS Cosmetics Guidelines 2007 (Modified 28 July 2011) Page 7 of 22

C. Further information about the definition of Cosmetic The purpose of this section of the Guidelines is to describe the new definition of cosmetic in the ICNA Act and also to provide some guidance regarding the rationale for the definition and the interpretations of some of the terms used in the definition. The definition draws on the wording currently contained in the definition of chemical product within the Trade Practices (Consumer Product Information Standards) (Cosmetics) Regulations 1991. Previously the definition of cosmetic in the ICNA Act simply cross-referenced this definition. For the purpose of clarity, the definition has now been included, in full, in the ICNA Act. The inclusion of the definition does not represent any change in policy. For the purposes of clarification: in general, maintaining in good condition includes controlling through, for example, cleansing, moisturising, exfoliating and/or drying; the definition of a cosmetic does not preclude the use of the words prevent, preventing or prevention for general cosmetic purposes specifically qualified by the purposes detailed in (a)(iii) - (viii) of the definition of cosmetic; the definition states that a cosmetic does not include a therapeutic good within the meaning of the Therapeutic Goods Act 1989 1. Again, this has been included for clarity, and to address interface issues between NICNAS and the Therapeutic Goods Administration. A change will also be made to the therapeutic excluded goods order, to provide that any product meeting the definition of a cosmetic, as defined in the ICNA Act, and the requirements in the Cosmetics Standard will not be a therapeutic good. Further information about those products that are cosmetics and those that are therapeutic goods is included in the following parts of these Guidelines; and the definition includes, and excludes, any substance or preparation set out in Regulations made under the ICNA Act. The power to make Regulations has been included to ensure flexibility, enabling the legislation to respond, where appropriate, to: any significant changes in the nature of the cosmetics industry (which is recognised as an evolving and innovative industry); and any changes in national or international definitions that may occur over time. Rather than needing to amend the Act (which can take a considerable period of time) Regulations can be made more quickly to ensure that products do not fall through the gaps. As at August 2007, there are no Regulations in relation to the definition of cosmetics. 1 The definition of therapeutic goods can be found in section 3 of the Therapeutic Goods Act 1989 which is available via the following weblink: http://www.tga.gov.au/legis/index.htm NICNAS Cosmetics Guidelines 2007 (Modified 28 July 2011) Page 8 of 22

D. Products that are regulated as cosmetics Table A The specific types of products contained in the right-hand column of Table A must comply with the general requirements relating to cosmetics (detailed in Part B of this document). However, the NICNAS Cosmetics Standard (made under section 81 of the ICNA Act) does not apply to the following products. In other words, there are no product-specific conditions (standards) for these products. It is important to note that Table A is not exhaustive. Omission from the Table does not necessarily stop a product from being classified as a cosmetic. Product category Face and Nail Hair care and hairdressing products Oral Hygiene Perfumes Personal hygiene Skin care Product type Products for nail care (including preparations that are applied topically to the nails to harden or to deter biting of the nails) Products for make up Products for colouring nails/varnish Tinted bases/foundation (liquids, pastes, powders) without SPF Products for making-up and removing make-up from the face and eyes.

** These sunscreening agents are not currently listed on the Australian Inventory of Chemical Substances (AICS) and usage is restricted. These chemicals are permitted for use as a sunscreening agent in cosmetic products applied to the skin within the specified maximum concentration levels, without an assessment as a new chemical. Anyone wishing to use these chemicals for other purposes must submit a new chemicals notification to NICNAS. NICNAS Cosmetics Guidelines 2007 (Modified 28 July 2011) Page 20 of 22

H. The consequences of non-compliance with the requirements in relation to cosmetics As noted previously, it is the responsibility of each manufacturer or importer of cosmetics to ensure that they comply with the legislation including the new Cosmetics Standard (where applicable). Non-compliance may have significant consequences. For example, under the ICNA Act it is an offence to: import into, or manufacture in, Australia a cosmetic that is subject to a standard set under section 81 (i.e. the Cosmetics Standard) and that does not meet the standard; and import into, or manufacture in, Australia an industrial chemical that is subject to a condition under section 13 (i.e. a condition of use listed on the Australian Inventory of Chemical Substances) and that breaches the condition. The maximum penalty for failure to comply with each of these offences is 120 penalty units which is equivalent to $13,200 for an individual or $66,000 for a corporation.
