What Are the Key Certifications My Skincare Products Should Have?

To ensure your products are safe, high-quality, and meet global standards, these certifications are important:

1. GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice): Ensures products are consistently produced and controlled according to quality standards.

2. ISO Certifications: ISO 22716 (cosmetics manufacturing) ensures that the manufacturing process meets international quality standards.

3. FDA Compliance: Required for skincare products sold in the U.S., ensuring the product’s safety and regulatory compliance.

4. Halal Certification: Important for markets in regions where consumers expect products to meet Halal standards (e.g., Middle East, Southeast Asia).

5. Cruelty-Free & Vegan: If your brand promotes ethical standards, certifications like Leaping Bunny (cruelty-free) or Vegan Society can enhance your brand’s appeal.

Tip: Always ask your OEM/ODM partner if they are certified by recognized organizations and if they comply with the regulations of your target market.
