The Cosmetic Products (Safety) (Amendment) Regulations 1990
These Regulations make a number of amendments to the Cosmetic Products (Safety) Regulations 1989 (“the principal regulations”). In particular, they re-impose the marking requirements contained in regulation 8 of the Cosmetic Products (Safety) Regulations 1984 (S.I. 1984/1260) until regulation 6 of the principal regulations comes into force; they also provide that the marking requirements of regulation 6 can be met, if the cosmetic product is sold loose, by providing the information on the packaging in which the product is displayed, the container in which it is exposed for sale or a notice in immediate proximity to that container. Regulation 6 of the principal regulations will come into force for some purposes (specified in regulation 1(5)(a) of those regulations) on 1st January 1992 and for all other purposes on 1st January 1994.
