Obtaining INCI Names for Shampoo/Shower Gel Base for FDA Registration
Question
I would like to ask, if I purchase a shampoo/shower gel base and add fragrance to it, and then I want to register it with the FDA (อย.), can I obtain the INCI names or the ingredients list for the base? Thank you.
Answer
Obtaining INCI Names for FDA Registration
Yes, you can obtain the INCI names for the shampoo/shower gel base you purchased. For bases intended for further formulation, the INCI names are typically provided in the product description on our website. This information is essential for registering your final product with the FDA (อย.).
Based on your search, two relevant foaming bases are:
- SweetWash™ Hair (Shampoo Foaming Base Built-in fixative): The INCI name for this base is Water, Cocamidopropyl Hydroxysultaine, Coco Glucoside, Sodium Xylene Sulfonate, Glycol Distearate, Galaxolide, Citric Acid, Sodium Citrate, Phenxyethanol, Chlorphenesin, Glycerin, Tetrasodium EDTA.
- SweetWash™ Hand (Hand Wash Foaming Base): Although primarily for hand wash, this is also a foaming base. The INCI name is Aqua, Coco Glucoside, Polysorbate 20, Citric Acid, PEG-120 Methyl Glucose, Glycerin, Propanediol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Fragrance.
When registering your product with the FDA, you will need to list all ingredients present in your final formulation. This includes all ingredients from the base you used (as listed in the INCI name) plus any ingredients you add, such as the perfume.
Please refer to the specific product page for the base you purchased to confirm the exact INCI list, as formulations can sometimes be updated.
