Cosmetic Registration: Declaring Ingredients with Butter Cream Maker™
Question
When registering a cosmetic product using Butter Cream Maker™ along with Cetyl Alcohol, Glyceryl Stearate, and Ceteth-20, how should each ingredient be declared for registration, including their INCI names and percentages in the final formulation?
Answer
Cosmetic Registration Declaration
When registering a cosmetic product that uses Butter Cream Maker™ along with ingredients like Cetyl Alcohol, Glyceryl Stearate, and Ceteth-20, you need to declare each ingredient separately in your formulation.
These are typically individual ingredients added to your cosmetic recipe, not components within the Butter Cream Maker™ itself.
For registration purposes, you will list all ingredients in your final product by their INCI (International Nomenclature of Cosmetic Ingredients) names, in descending order of their concentration in the formula.
- Cetyl Alcohol: The INCI name is Cetyl Alcohol. You will declare the percentage of Cetyl Alcohol based on the amount you added to your total formulation.
- Glyceryl Stearate: The INCI name for Glyceryl Stearate SE / Glyceryl Monostearate SE is Glyceryl Stearate / Glyceryl Monostearate. You will declare the percentage of this ingredient based on the amount you added to your total formulation.
- Ceteth-20: The INCI name is Ceteth-20. You will declare the percentage of Ceteth-20 based on the amount you added to your total formulation.
- Butter Cream Maker™: You will also declare Butter Cream Maker™ itself with its INCI name (which acts as an emulsifier) and the percentage you used in your final formulation.
The percentage you declare for each ingredient is its weight percentage relative to the total weight of your finished cosmetic product.
