Course Goals• Provide an Overview of US, EU, and ASEAN GMP
Regulations affecting Cosmetics• Discuss Quality Systems• Review Procedures for Writing, Issuance,
maintenance and Implementation of SOPs• Show How GMPs affect Product Processing
– Raw Materials– Manufacturing and Packaging Batch Records– Equipment Cleaning Labeling and Storage– QC Testing
• Managing Water Systems• Auditing for Compliance• Introduce Process and Cleaning Validation
Why are there GMPs?• Responsibilities
– Corporate– Personal– Legal
• FDA• European Regulations• Association of Southeast Asian Nations• Importation• Export• Fraud• SOMEONE GOT HURT !
Short Story on GMPs
• Prevent contamination• Prevent mix ups and errors• Instill process controls• Insure product quality• Save everyone money
S A F E T Y
Basic Rule of Thumb
• Whether imported, exported or made within the country, cosmetics MUST be in compliance with the provisions of the regulations of the country of sales, and may also need to be in compliance with the regulations with the country of manufacture.
Cosmetic GMP Regulations• US Cosmetic GMPs
– FD&C Act [Sec. 301] prohibits introduction, or delivery for introduction, into interstate commerce cosmetics that are
• adulterated [Sec. 601], or• misbranded [Sec. 602].
– FDA has authority to inspect firms, establishment, equipment, unfinished and finished materials, containers and labeling [Sec. 704]
Cosmetic GMP Regulations• EU Cosmetic GMPs• Guidelines aimed at cosmetics manufacturers in
order to improve safety, offer organisational and practical advice on the management of the human, technical and administrative factors affecting product quality.
• Describe the manufacturing conditions and management activities involved in the different stages of production, from the purchase of the raw materials to the dispatch of the packaged end-products.
• Current Requirement Reference: ISO 22716
European Cosmetic Directive• Article 5.1 “Good Manufacturing Practice” requires that
“Manufacturing of cosmetic products shall comply with good manufacturing practice…..”
• Article 5.2. states that “Compliance to good manufacturing practice shall be presumed where manufacturing is in accordance with the relevant harmonized standard,…..”
• The ISO standard 22716 (2007) ”Cosmetics – Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) – Guidelines on Good Manufacturing Practices” has been approved an published in 2007 and is becoming more and more accepted at international level.
• It is expected that this standard will become a harmonized standard soon after the publication of the new cosmetic regulation (2013)
• Therefore compliance to this standard will guarantee compliance to Article 5 of the cosmetic regulation.

Cosmetic GMP Regulations• ASEAN Cosmetic GMPs
– Driven by Article 8.1.c [ASEAN Cosmetic Directive]
• Follows primarily EU activities• Guidelines intended as a general guideline for the
manufacturers to develop its own internal quality management system and procedures
• Goal:– “The final products must meet the quality
standards appropriate to their intended use to insure consumer’s health and benefit”

Comparison of GMPSUS FDA, WHO & EU
• Responsibility for Quality– FDA – the QC unit is responsible for quality – WHO & EU – define both separate and joint responsibilities
for the QC unit and production management
• Personnel Qualifications– FDA – education, knowledge, skills or experience needed
for specific job functions are not defined– WHO & EU – provide such definitions & requirements
• Production & Process Controls– FDA – focuses on levels of approval– ICH – focuses on stability requirements
12
HarmonizationInternational Cooperation on Cosmetic Regulation
(US, European Union, Canada, Japan)
• Good manufacturing practices• Ingredient labeling / INCI names• Nanotechnology• Market surveillance• Authorized substances• Animal testing and alternative methods• Sunscreen regulations and test methods
Definition of cGMP
“The minimum current good manufacturing practice for methods to be used in, and the facilities or controls to be used for, the manufacture, processing, packing or holding of a drug to assure that such drug meets the
requirements of the act as to safety, and has the identity and strength and meets the quality and
purity characteristics that it purports or is represented to possess.”
- Title 21 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 210.1
What is “current” and “good”?• Feasible for manufacturers to implement
• Not just for DRUGS
• Contributes to ensuring the safety, quality, or purity of the drug product
• The value of the contribution exceeds the cost or other burdens of implementation
• It does not have to be the most prevalent practice in the industry

Does it apply to cosmetics too?
Yes, cosmetics too.
“These regulations clearly apply to all drugs whether or not they are characterized as old drugs, new drugs, investigational drugs, or ingredients of drugs, devices or cosmetics.”

FDA Definitions• Cosmetics - cleanse and beautify the body; not including
soaps (alkali salts of fatty acids). DO NOT REQUIRE PRE-MARKET APPROVAL BY THE FDA.However, color additives must be preapproved!
• Drugs – alter the structure or function of the body. Intended to diagnose, treat, care, mitigate or prevent disease.DO REQUIRE PRE-MARKET APPROVAL BY THE FDA.
• Both – a.k.a. “OTC Drugs” shampoos that are also antidandruff, deodorants that are also antiperspirants, dentifrice with fluoride, creams & lotions with sunscreens, antibacterial cleansers
OTC Drug vs. CosmeticOTC Drug• Pre-market approval or
USP monograph required• Safety & efficacy must be
cleared• Subject to cGMP• Must not be adulterated
or misbranded• Establishments &
products must be registered
• No prescription required• Symptom relief
Cosmetic• Pre-market approval not
required• No pre-market clearance of
product or ingredient claims, safety or efficacy
• Must not be adulterated or misbranded
• Establishment & product registration not mandatory
• No prescription required• Adverse event reporting is
not required (yet)• Cleansing, beautifying, or
altering the appearance
18
FDA Focus• Office of Cosmetics & Colors (OCAC) / Center for
Food Safety and Nutrition (CFSAN) (Dec 6, 2006)– Microbial contamination– Illegal color additive use– Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE)– Bioterrorism/Counterterrorism (BT/CT)
• Center for Drug Evaluation & Research (CDER)– Dermatology– OTC Products– Compliance

- Change Control
- Continuous Improvement
- Reprocessing
- Salvage / Returns
- Rejects
- Stability Failures
- Quarantined Products
- Validation
- Training / Qualification of Employees
You’re not likely to fly under the radar screen
• “Interstate commerce” means between any State, Territory or the District of Columbia. It applies to all steps in a product's manufacture, packaging, and distribution.
• “Commercial distribution” means annual gross sales in excess of $1,000 for that product.
22
Cosmetic Safety, as per the FDA• Can not contain any of the restricted ingredients.
• Cosmetic firms must substantiate the safety of their products before marketing them.
• If safety is not substantiated the following warning must be on the label or the product is misbranded:– WARNING- The safety of this product has not
been determined.
• Product recalls of hazardous cosmetics is voluntary.– FDA works with the courts to remove adulterated
and/or misbranded cosmetics from the market– Restraining orders, product seizure, criminal
prosecution of firms and individuals are all possible.

• Cosmeceutical– The FDA does not recognize this term which is
analogous to Japan’s “quasi-drug” category.29
GMP for Cosmetics
“Although there are no good manufacturing practice (GMP) regulations for cosmetics, we do have Good Manufacturing Practice Guidelines (Inspection Checklist). Failure to adhere to GMP may result in an adulterated or misbranded product.”

We are a “self-regulated” industry . . .
REMEMBERWhile we may be “self-regulated”
the FDA has ultimate authority over cosmetics too!
