Targeted revision of the Cosmetic Products Regulation - BEUC comments to the public consultation

Consumers are in frequent, intimate, and often prolonged contact with cosmetic and personal care products. The Cosmetic Products Regulation (CPR) plays a vital role in protecting consumers against chemical risks. Still, the CPR suffers from major shortcomings, as documented for example in the Chemicals Fitness Check. 

This paper outlines BEUC’s recommendations on how the CPR revision can achieve those goals; these recommendations should be read in conjunction with our response to the open public consultation.
