Question

How can I find the INCI names for the ingredients in the formulation recommended by the team, which are required for FDA cosmetic registration?

Answer

You're right, the FDA requires the chemical or scientific names (INCI names) for cosmetic registration. These names are usually provided with the ingredients. To get the INCI names for the ingredients in the formulation you used, you first need to identify the specific ingredients. Once you know the ingredient names, you can search for them to find their chemical/scientific names. If you can provide the names of the ingredients from the formulation, I can help you search for their INCI names using my tools. Please identify the ingredients from the formulation recommended by the team.
