Andrew Lustigman, Chair of Olshan's Advertising, Marketing & Promotions Group and Co-Chair of the firm’s Brand Management & Protection Group, and Claudia Dubón, a partner in the firm’s Corporate/Securities Group, published an article in New York Law Journal entitled “New Cosmetic Regulations Dramatically Changing the Compliance Landscape.” In the article, Andy and Claudia discuss the cosmetics labeling compliance requirements in the Modernization of Cosmetics Regulation Act of 2022 (MoCRA). Several provisions took effect on July 1, including requiring facilities that process or manufacture cosmetic products to register with the FDA. The product label must also include the contact information of the responsible person(s) for facilitating the reporting of adverse events. “MoCRA is arguably the most significant expansion of the FDA’s regulation of cosmetic products in decades,” Andy and Claudia explain. “These requirements will apply to manufacturers and marketers (among other various parties in the cosmetic space), who will need to carefully consider their and their suppliers’ compliance obligations under these new regulatory requirements.” They add that more MoCRA regulations may be forthcoming, including good manufacturing practices (GMPs) for disclosing fragrance allergens in cosmetic product labeling and establishing and requiring standardized testing methods for detecting asbestos in talc-containing cosmetics. “Given the substantial and expanding compliance obligations, parties in the cosmetic space will need to be mindful of the enhanced regulation requirements to maintain compliance moving forward,” Andy and Claudia write.
